Fished the south end of Cda Lake yesterday with fellow Wa. Lakes member farmer_aa.
The pike a re still biting, although not quite as ferociously as the past two weekends. We managed 15 pike between the three of us, in a 4 hour trip. Most fish were in the low to mid 20" range but Arron had the big fish of the day at 9.9 pounds and I believe 32". Hopefully he will post a photo of it for us to see. It was kind of an affectionate get together with he and the fish. For some reason Aaron felt a hug was in order. I guess you had to be there.
The fish were in and around the weedbeds and were caught on a mixture of everything we threw at them. Frogs, spoons, swim baits, and the sabille magic swimmer.
Water temps were 40 - 43 if I remember right. If you're not afraid of the weather they can still be caught.
I wouldn't normally rate a day with 15 fish for three fishermen as a 5 but the chance to meet a couple of new fishing friends for a day on the water boosted the rating.
Thanks for the trip Aaron, it was great fishing with you guys.

Thanks, Mark, for bringing some luck back onto the boat! I don't think I can get the picture posted to your report, but you are welcome to add the one I sent from my cell phone if it's possible. I had a great time on the water and it was a pleasure fishing with two other folks that are at least as obsessive about pike as I am! We'll have to get up again next year if not before. It was good to get the skunk off from the last two trips.

Email the pic to Mike Carey and he'll make sure it gets posted to the report. Great report! :-)
