Mike and his father Kevin
were back at it in 2019 for their annual fishing outing with Legends
Outdoors. They notoriously have had very successful trips in the past and
this day would by no different by any means. As an FYI, Mike eats, breathes,
sleeps, drinks, and thinks about fishing seemingly 24/7 and was anticipating
this day for some time. Aboard the pontoon boat, they set out on a
moderate summer day that had a breeze accompanied with it and plenty of
sun. They started out with live bait for some time and had several good
strikes on it as the big ones were biting quite frequently! They hooked
into five striped bass that were ferocious fighters and were tiring out the
weary arms of the anglers very early on! Two came unbuttoned, but three
of them were fought carefully and brought into the boat generating big smiles
and happy anglers. This would be an entire day of excitement and
achievement typically, but it didn't end there as a nice walleye was also
hooked into and landed along with a rare northern pike to complete "The Big Three" of predatory game fish at Lake Wallenpaupack. These two anglers didn't
take traditional hoagies or sandwiches to eat during this day out as snacks
were only consumed as there wasn't much time for eating as they were fishing
with fervent demeanor as they are extremely passionate about the sport.
They would switch over to Keitech Baits once the live bait bite waned and they
continued their success even though the boat traffic and humidity was
increasing seemingly by the minute. The tacked on several perch and
smallmouth bass to the catch to round out their day and top off yet another
outstanding outing for Kevin and Mike. One of the stripers and walleye
were kept for table fare, and the clients have sent us a photo of them prepared
for dinner as shown below since the outing. We look forward to seeing
this father and son duo once again in 2020 for their annual trek with Legends
Outdoors.
