a few buddies and I have two annual fishing trips.. a summer trip and an ice fishing trip each winter. This past weekend was our summer trip, and this year we stayed at Anchorage Resort on Paudash Lake in the Bancroft area.

the accommodations were nice and the hosts were very friendly and accommodating








The fishing was good, we had some changing weather conditions but we managed  fish each day. We did a fun mini tournament, and switched up team daily. I was lucky to be on the winning team on day 1 and 2, but lost on day 3.. here are some pics from the weekend







here was the monster of the weekend.. my scale only put him at 5.22, but my eyes think he looked way bigger.

It was prefish time again.. my tournament partner and I hit Limerick lake to do some prefishing for a tournment next weekend. We had a pretty good day and managed a bag just over 13lbs.

I had some spots marked out from past tournaments but the results were less them impressive. We found a new pattern and hammered fish all day long on frogs. We worked a 1, 2 punch combo, i was buzzing a manns hard nose frog quickly over the pads and my partner used the slow approach with a hollow bodie. this was great as we quickly picked up on the agressive and not so aggrive fish in each area.

the best fish if the day was this 4lber.. he was hanging off the end of a falled tree.. when the hollow body hit the water he exploded on it, he came up hard and fast and nearly swallowed that thing hole.






My best of the day was also a reaction strike. This fish hit my frog the instant it hit the water. He ran hard and fast at the boat and I was in burner mode to keep up.



Glad my partner took pics with my eyes closed.. or squinting.. forgot my shades

these next two rounded out our top 4 of our 5 fish limit.





Weapons of Choice:

Dobyns 805CBRM (yes this is a crankbait rod, but the length and whip are aweseom for soft plactic frogs)
Shimano Curado
Manns Hard Nose Toad

Dobyns 735C
Shimano Curado
Live Target Hollow Body Frog

Nice fish guys.  I hate it when I forget my sunglasses... I always feel that if I can see a bass, I can catch it, so without the polarized glasses, it's like having one strike against me.  It didn't seem to affect your fishing that day!

Gene Mueller recommended that I remove sunglasses for my pictures, at least for posting in the public.  He says that seeing people's eyes is more appealing to the general public.  I personally think that I look better in sunglasses, the more that I can hide of my ugly mug the better  ;D

my tournament partner and I hit the water for our 4th tournamanent of the season.. the weather did not play nice 50km/h winds and cool temps turned the bite off fast

Although all of our prefishing went out the window due to the weather we still managed a decent bag (just over 12lbs) and ended up in 6th.. missed 5th place and the money by 0.15lbs









this should show you what we where up against.. click to see a short video
