Awesome August Action...

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.

Awesome August Action...

Post by RJ »

Well another summer month has passed by....Birdee and I took full advantage of it and managed 16 outings over the month...

We targetted multi-species as always and did some travelling as well....hooking up with old friends along the way made our trips all the better...

We started with 4 days in SW Ontario on the Great Lakes.....Had some hot summer salmon action aboard the Striper...

Image

Image

Birdee landed a new PB for our household with this salmon that was pushin near 30 pounds...

Image

We slid down to Erie for a day to fill our coller with walleye... :wink:
Image

The Bows are always a hoot....Birdee and Markus had a great time with this double...
Image

One thing that has always puzzled me...is why I can't find crappies in the summertime....so I spent a few nights fishin to see what I could find...and low and behold...

Image

Image

We were fortunate enough to come out on top at a "Couples Challenge" that was put together on one of our local lakes...A couple of Old Hawk-Talkers Canadian Bacon and M.T.Livewell were our adversaries...what a great day....

Birdee with her new PB at 3.1...(to be beaten.. :wink: )
Image

We hit em good that day...and our 3-fish limit was in the 9 and change pounds for the win....we made the other teams dinner back at our place to make em feel better... :lol:

Image

We spent a full day on our local lake trying to get Birdee that PB bumped up.....well it's now 4 pounds even... :wink:
Image

We then took a few days to go camping/carp fishing....we had a blast...

Image

Image

Had a great day on my new favorite smallie lake....

Image

Image

And ended the month with a fish that's been awhile coming for Birdee....I got high-fived and hugged for this one!

Image

And a nice pike to boot!

Image

Bring on September!

One month of angling in Ontario - that might be just about as good as it gets. Congrats RJ and Birdee.
