I got a call from my son-in-law yesterday. He wanted to know if I would take him and my grandson fishing. What is a guy to do? I acquiesced. We got on the water at Wickiup at the crack of 10:30 and fished until 2. The fishing was decent at first but slowed. The best news is I got my 2.5 year old grandson into his first fish. He kept saying he was glad I had a boat. He also liked going fast.
An orange hoochie behind an orange Wild Thing dodger was working at first. Later we caught fish on both a pink hoochie and a supermicro double glow pink hoochie behind uv pink Sling Blades. A Fish With Gary watermelon set-up was also productive. After going almost 10 year without catching a rainbow in Wickiup, I caught my second this year on the FWG system. It was beautiful 20 fish that as released. The biggest fish was just over 17 and weighted 1.8 lbs.
Here is my grandson pointing to the big fish he caught.
