Rideau Pig

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Rideau Pig

Post by nips »

So I was in Barbados for the last week on my honeymoon and I missed the musky opener (the things you got to do right), I got home wednesday morning around 1 am. I talked to my brother that morning and he told me that he was out fishing for 4 days and lost a fish at the boat and had a few follows, but nothing in the net. Well I told him i've been itchin to try out my new rod and reel (thanks ed) and we'll go after supper and I will put him on one. Half an hour on the water and my bro caught the biggest fish of his life. Image

A real fat 48 inches in a figure 8 :shock: :shock:
My undersized musky just ATE your trophy bass

Congratulations on your PB and that beauty of a fish.

Wow! It is nice to see that good old river producing fish like that.

Cheers,
