2013 Boating Season

The 2013 Boating Season has begun!  May 7 marks the latest ever start to the season for my boats.  With a 2013 maiden voyage on Reeds Lake, Numenon began her 11th season.  After a smokey start, she ran fine and fished well.

Water temps were already pushing 65 degrees, and the fishing was kind of slow.  I did take the first game fish of my season, but at 20 inches or so, this pike was a short of legal.  It ate a new Rapala F11 Scatter Minnow, and I had several other follows and bumps over the course of the evening. Crappies were making themselves known in the shallows, too, so I should have plenty of options by the time I get out again.

Finally... ahhhhhh, fishing!
