Skunked AT GOMH & Off the Dock

 

Mid 40's, M Sunny, 0-3mph N

Skunked! I arrived at the GOMH earlier than last night. I wish I would have not stopped at the GOMH and gone out on the Trophy instead. It got calm, and I would have gotten in about 45 minutes of fishing. Swans were flying all over tonight, especially at the lake place. One highly-flying large V, several small groups along the lake, and one pair of two and a single. Loons were calling as it got dark at the lake place. I did throw a few casts off the dock.

Mid 40's, Partly Cloudy, 

Skunked (Beautiful night, no bites. I think I went to the Lake Place as well)

Final Fish of 2024 Is A Walleye From the Jetty

 

11:00-12:00am Eddy's Jetty

Low 40's, a little ripple on the water

I got to the Jetty much later than I wanted. I started at the N Harbor Mouth and threw the Rippin Rap first, then this X-Rap Shad Shallow, and thought maybe I got a bite. The first cast with the Ultimate Jerk Shad was fish on. 24.75" fat eye. That was the only bite I got. It would have been nice if I would have had more time. This was my last bite of 2024.

Final Bullhead of 2024

 

4:45-5:30 GOMH SW NE 

50℉, PC, 0-2mph NE

It was a beautiful November Day in the Northland. I got one quick small gator on the SW side. I was thinking about and praying for Mel the whole time until I got home.

Skunked After Pre-OP Physcial

 I had my pre-op physical for the hip replacement at the Hillman Clinic. I threw a few cast at the GOMH and at the Lake Place. No bites, skunked!

Final Trip in the Trophy For 2024

 

5:00-6:30pm F Flat, N Reeds Across, NPBI

45-50℉, PC,  3mph S

I had to use a dock pole to move the Trophy backward. There were swans where I was headed on F Flat and loons in the wider bay. I got a pike in the first 10 minutes and missed another bite on F Flat. I fished the North Reeds Across Reed Edge for about 10 minutes, then went to NPBI. I didn't get a bite there.

Despite the weather being nice in November until I took the Trophy out of the lake on the 17th of the month, this was my only trip in the boat for the month. I was preoccupied with the election, my surgery, and how sucky the fishing was in September and October.
