Nice catch for sure! I spent every summer up there for more than 20 years beginning in the 60's. I have to ask....that deck in the background looks familiar. Was that pic taken in the river on the South side, near the islands heading out to the bay? We never caught eyes when I was going up there. It was always Sm/Lm Bass, Pike, and typical panfish and some big cats. Some BIG pike along what we called the wall (weeds) in the bay heading towards Sacketts. The bass and Pike fishing really slowed after they started stocking salmon in the 80's. Still..., a beautiful area! Really miss that place
Good fishing!

Doing some camping at Lake Bluff in a couple weeks and will be fishing 1 day at least in the bay. Im thinking the closest launch will be Arneys.
Im familiar with the area, just not the fishing. Looking to hook into some Bass and/or Pike. If anyone can offer some info on finding the fish, it would be much appreciated.
Well that sounds like a wonderful evening,and was Mr. Green excited about his fishing experience ? .
As a matter of fact, he hasn't been to work since! LMAO
At least somebody caught fish. I fished 75-170 FOW from 5-8pm and not a taker.
I did manage to lose 1 torpedo, and tangle a bunch of lines though, so all was not lost!
To top it off, on the way in about 2 miles off shore, the lake kicked up pretty good. Before I knew it, the new guy was the Green Guy!
I broke a leaf on my 16' 2 years ago. It happens but not often. I worked for a Loadrite distributer long before
your trailer was built. I can say for a fact, we never torqued the ubolts to a specific lb. Also, 5700# doesnt sound
right for a trailer for a 20' boat unless the trailer was for something else first. If it for a 20'-21', their was a model with a 3700#
capacity.
