Quinte Fishing

After a delayed start went out through upper gap first line in water just before 9am, headed west big slow S turns covering 20 to 30fow,about a mile west started seeing bait mostly in 25fowwith a few hooks, started going through tackle box washing lures hoping for the "magic" combo, lure type, colour and speed, at about 10:30 had a hit on a purple reef runner 80 ft back of board, felt the weight then was gone. There was another boat in same general area didn't see his net move, at I 11:30 pulled lines and went further west, to obvious drop off close to shore, no names as don't want to create a traffic jam, Windfinder had forecast spot on, winds shifted to WNW I motored past the structure trolled back east on electric bow mount and slight wind assist, first pass landed a 32" pike on Smithwick Rouge Perfect 20 white with purple n black spots, boat in 21fow board 1/2 way to shore lure 60ft from board pulled lines went back to start resulted in 26" walleye, same set up, all total 5 passes landed a 23" walleye that completely swallowed the Reef Runner, kept that one as hooks in gullet n gill, I lost a bigger pike due to poor net job!!! again on the Rouge.
Great day to be on water can't wait till winds and schedule line up again.
Going solo resulted in poor pics, even at 6'5" arms not quite long enough.

Thanks for sharing - like to hear of fish in that area
