Like Kent, I also caught my very first Northern Pike on this trip.
I have been keeping a ledger of all my fishing trips, species, counts, conditions, etc. for many years now and it was fun to add a new lifetime species to my ledger. It was also good to catch more than one, just to make sure it wasn't a fluke!
It was a fun trip with great company as usual. I was prepared to fish outside on this trip as my understanding is that it pays to move from hole to hole when hunting for these fish, but I got cold and wimped out midmorning and set up my shack and fished two holes from inside my shack the whole rest of the day...and ended up catching just as many as Kent and Kory! Pure beginners luck. I even caught one using another members "patended sleeping technique".
I have a few pictures to post that I'll put up a little later.

I used to N.ot have E.nough T.ime O.ff to go fishing. Then I retired. Now I have less time than I had before. Sheesh.
