OK so it wasn't all work. Last weekend after the job list was done, we did get a little fishing time in.
Fall fishing isn't always non-stop catching but it is well worth the time on the lake. We caught northern, bass and lake trout but the walleye were not cooperating. It happens on the best of lakes sometimes. Perhaps with the Lake Trout preparing to spawn the walleye get a little concerned with those voracious eaters moving into their territory.
Reminds me of my football playing days. I didn't want to let go of the ball then either.
My "un" cousin Neil Greaves with a slot size northern. Same name - no relation.
Neil fighting up a northern from the deep. It was hooked about 50 down.
ps being on the top of hill isn't so bad... now for the slid down the other side.
