Hey Mum...You said there are huge fish in here!
Did you ever take your kids or friends fishing while bragging that you know the BEST place to catch the big ones? Then live to eat your words because that day there didn't seem to be anything around other than the bait fish. The picture above was one of those days.
I more or less have been side-lined lately from fishing. Right at the moment I do most of my fishing from shore because I tore a ligament in my finger-wrist area. I have a bit of a hard time casting and reeling in my catch. This also limits me to land because I can't paddle my kayak; at least, I don't want to get stranded out in the water or on the other side of the river or lake.
After that, I started to read up on fish finders. This week I am ordering one. Since I am 'landlocked', I think it will be one of the Humminbird models. I can practice using it casting lefty to see how well it works. I know a few who have them and like them if you use them correctly. A couple of other folks complain about the ones they had, but after listening to them, I figured out that they never read the instructions; why doesn't that surprise me.
Over the winter I am going to fit my kayak with a fish finder too. It will be a Garmin Echo Color 300c Dual-Beam Fishfinder. The winter will give me the time to properly install it without me getting the urge to put the kayak in prematurely and not allowing enough time for the sealants to cure. I know that I would want to pop the kayak in water the moment I get the fish finder on the kayak.
One way or another, I am going to figure out where those big ones are hiding, and hook them (and most likely release them too). I can find the otters and beavers and swans and much more wildlife, but it is the fish that I want.
