First fish of 2023

[FSH 210 Sport]

Fished for lakers most of the day and no joy… decided to top troll for a while and caught this one.. a nice Gerard Rainbow. Believe it or not it survived and went back to the lake.. the live well on my boat brings a lot of fish back from deaths door

Glad you're back on the water, hope no more snow for you!

My wife caught her first fish this year, tonight. We took the dinghy out to the Burlington Breakwater. I ran the motor and wanted her to cast. 7:40pm, casting towards the rocks she caught this nice little brown trout then released. Caught on a perch color crankbait. Active little fish.
Happy for her to catch one of these that I have never caught. I believe it was recently stocked.

Lake Erie requirement. Hold it to the sun, if you can’t see thru it, over the rail and in the pale. That’s a good eater there!
