This weekends search for fish I hit a somewhat local lake in hopes of smallmouth and walleye.

I start with fishing where the river flows into the lake. Land a few smaller smallmouth with 1 decent one mixed in.

Next I decide to do some trolling so my girlfriend is with me so 2 lines in the water it is. I start with what I believe is a older rapala dt 10. Right off the bat small smallie. Line gets back in and not long after I get my first walleye.

I troll until dark catching a few small smallmouth and a couple small walleye. Lost 1 nice fish that a have a feeling was a nice walleye. All coming on the same rapala crank well no others would get hit.

This stretch of beautiful autumn weather has been making it very pleasant to get out !

I’ve been loving it. Gonna try to get out 2x this weekend. Hoping to keep going until late November.

I'm hoping to get out well into December down on Quinte...the big girls should be waiting. It's been a late start down there so far..

Nice hoping to get out BOQ this fall if not definitely on the ice. The old 2 stroke Johnston doesn’t like the really cold weather as much.

Quinte has been a late start the last few years. Ten years ago end of October we would do very well catching the migratory walleye coming in. Now I don’t even think about Quinte until mid-November at the earliest. I figure 2 weeks and Quinte should be decent.
