2nd paddle

[eyeguy 54]

popped over to the access by cathedral high about 3 today and went out for a couple hours.  beautiful area.  3 smallies so no fast action for me on the fish.  did get to see a nice mink hop in the water and it came back up with a small catfish.  About 30 feet from me. fun!  it posed for quite a while but the camera was at home. grrrrrrrr ! !  lol   anchor seemed ok.  broke a rod today...  lol ( old one s no biggy)   still learning this fun thing.

The nice thing about getting out in canoes or kayaks is that you seem to see way more wildlife like you did today.  Being able to move around the lake quietly with a smaller profile lets you see a lot more.

Are you fishing rivers then? If so, are you stashing a car downstream at your finishing point? The logistics and usual need for a 2nd car has kept me off most rivers unless they are backwaters where there isn't much for current.

just the sippi so far.  putting in where I can go up or down and then back to where I started. next summer I will try some faster current areas to see how it goes.

Glad to hear you're getting out.  You should toss a few rodholders on that thing and troll some leadcore!!

I gotchya, that's the majority of what I've done too. Floated the Namekagon in early August in Western WI and that was a lot of fun.
