Season Opens In The Wind

My club, Lakes Area Bassmasters, began the season with the WI opener. A good wind out of the north made life interresting on Long Lake. As it is a north/south oriented lake, we were in the wind for most of the day. Which made the one western bay, the only place that was calm, full of boats.
I had a great day of catching......pike! I lost count at about thirty. Oh, there was the two bass, with only one long enough to bring to the scale. The 14" fish that brought me third place was caught on a minnow rap, on the 9th cast.
It was a great way to spend a day, on the unfrozen water, fishing for bass, against a great bunch of friends.
Think Fish!
