So, I have been out fishing 3 times this year, and have come back skunked 3 times!

Here is the trip by trip chrpnicle.

The first time out, Knot'Yo and I'll Cut You came with me to Bronte Pier. We targetted pike before the season closed for the Spring Spawn. We got down to Bronte at about 6 pm and got the lines wet at 6:15. This was teh first time I had the new baitcasters out this year, and they made me look exactly that - new. Several backlashes and lost lures later, all I had caught was a chill. The temperature throughout the day hovered around 10, but had dropped to 5 degrees by that time. Despite coming away empty handed, it was wonderful to get out and make some casts.

My next outing was the very next day. The day was sunny and held hidden promises of aquatic life. Knot'Yo joined me along with Sir Fusses as well as my cousins Mek Mek and Lil Debbie. We fished with worma nd float at Mill Pond for 2 hours targetting panfish. Only Mek Mek was successful, landing a perch and a pumpkinseed. However, this trip wasn't fruitless as we still dined on fish at Heritage Fish and Chips. It was delicious and is highly recommended if you are ever in the Milton area.

Wednesday was beaustiful. So beautiful that we decided to ry our luck at Mill Pond again. This time, I had Sir, Knot'Yo and Spam with me. While the others went for the traditional worm and float panfish, I decided to play around with a modified Carolina rig for small catfish. Well, we all 4 were skunked. However, the 1 other dude who was there, and wasn't exactly ina chatty mood, was catching fish next to the 4 of us... le sigh.

Well, 1 more week until our chariot arrives. I am so stoked.
