Rare Night Fishing Trip For Team Northshore

Some hot fishing going on aboard the USS Northshore. I got a message from Doug that there were some big fish in the river. I decided to head over there at 7pm. I got a call from Roger asking me if I wanted to do some night fishing in the boat.I told him I would be at the river at 7. Roger got there ahead of me and Doug was there as well. Doug said he lost a monster on his first cast.

We decided to go get the boat and fish the complete opposite end of the lake.
I would normally not leave a river with huge fish lurking. The only reason I did was because in the last 10 days, some big fish have come on the boat, all from the same spot. a few 5+ caught on back to back casts and some 4's.The spots been hot and that's where i'm going.

We get there and fish it hard and pick up a few small ones. Moving around a bit letting the spot settle down. We picked up a limit and some throw aways.

Lots of you know the spot I am talking about. If you know it, you know it. No need to mention it in responses.

It was not a great night so far but we did catch some fish. I cast a jig out at a very specific spot. It felt as if I was snagged up. I then feel it moving but felt small. It felt as if I had a small bass that was tangled up in a rope. It finally felt ok and it was not hung up. I then realized it was something big. I yelled to Roger to get the net and its big. It came to the surface and made a violent smash.I get her to the boat and Roger nets her. This thing was gorged to the max. We weighed it up on two scales and it was 7 lbs even.

I make fish look so small, look at the picture of Roger holding it. Just for the doubters who will say its 4 lbs.

Not the greatest cell phone pics being it was 11:30 at night.

  • Karl hooked into that at around 11:30pm. It was a nice warm night and to end it that way was way cool!

  • That's awesome, love the gut on the fish... I know what she's been eating to get that big! The fish in that lake are going to routinely produce some 5 plus pounders now that the new bait fish coming in.

  • Wow! Looks like that fish needs to be tested for roids. Great catch!

  • love how the trip location is in canada

  • Tank! Nice job!

  • Fish that look like they eat basketballs are the best.
