Fishing report ...

I had a great time on the water with Scott and his son Brandon. They battled each other for most parts of the day in a drop-shot contest, landing a variety of fish, including sunnies, white perch and largemouth. The overall winner was Brandon!

We hit a variety spots, but couldn't rise a pike for most of the day. I got a decent smallie on a hard jerkbait. Then, big bait persistence finally paid off when I landed a 32.5 inch pike on a white spinner bait. It put up a good fight, pulling drag, until Scotty successfully snatched it up in the net.

We thought it was certainly a contender, only knowing about cwood's pike for the day.



Water temps were 67. Just crazy for this time of year.

There are definitely some good pike in Lilly.
