Quinte Fishing

I just want to start by commending Scott and Sheldon on a job well done helping those guys out, and also that I hope everything gets sorted out with the CharlieD story.



While sitting at my desk looking at the calm winds and the impending storm that was supposed to hit, I decided I needed to go fishing. I called TylerCurt (Tim), waking him up at the wee hours of 11:30 a.m. and headed home to get the boat ready. Hoping that the rain and snow would hold off, we put the boat in at Glenora ferry around 1:30 and immediately set lines and headed towards Keiths. We ran a spread with a TD11, a reef, a mann's 20+, and a sebile koolie minnow all of varying colours to see what would work. Everything worked but the Grey Ghost TD11.

For those that know him, I have included a glamour shot of Tim, looking as radiant as ever. I also added a pic of my rod holder system I made for this fall, its more compact than my previous one and has worked amazing for me so far.

Fish 1 came after about 30 minutes of trolling and things picked up from there. Right around the time the rains and snow started. Fish 2 (27 1/2 inch) and 3 (not pictured but it was delicious) came shortly after that. Fish 4, 5 and 6 came back to back to back. at about 3:45. As soon as we had one in the boat another rod would fire, which is why there is only one rod out in the last pic. Other than the eater, which was about 3 or 4 pounds, the rest of the fish were around 26 to 29 inches, with the biggest tipping in at 10 pounds. No huge ones, but all decent fish. Great day of fishing but not the best weather. Here are the pics.

Here are the last 2 pics. The lens got wet in the snow and rain, so they arent the best.
