Toronto Islands - May 27th 2006

This morning Clive and I took a trip down the block to a fishing garage sale. It was an interesting match up of gear, mostly European gear, carp fishing gear, carp rods, rod holders, etc. Clive picked up some Maraboo to make some dress Musky spinners for later this year, and I picked up some swivels and a few crankbaits for under 10 bucks. The crankbaits, and swivels actually, are all made by a company called Jaxon, I’ve never heard of them personally, but these crankbaits look sweet.

Then, of course, it was back to the Toronto Islands for some more Pike fishing. We really could have used some cloud cover today as the sun was beating down on us through out the day and pushing pike back to colder water. Even though it was a very slow day Clive still managed to pick up this nice Pike with his hand-made spinner bait. I didn’t catch anything but I found this decaying Pike skull on the shore and took some pictures of it. Talk about teeth, eh!

[...] My appologies for not updating much yesterday, I will be making up for it today. I got far to distracted with fishing Toronto Islands and, of course, last night I was well intoxicated and watching UFC 60. I really thought Gracie could pull it off, I guess I was wrong… Anyway, back to the Luchas! [...]
