Thousand Island review!

[fisherman21]

Spent this past week in a house off bluff island. Managed to do 7 smallies off the rocks, then managed to do another 7 smallies off the boat. For the short amount of time I fished, i was content with that. Also got 1 largemouth and 7 pike. Including my first fish on my new baitcaster. Caught all the smallmouth drop shotting roboworms, tubes, and goby imitations. Most pike came on swimbaits

First fish on my new baitcaster, 28" pike

Hog smally made it all worth it. Didnt have a scale, but my bet was between 4.5 and 5.5

Nice going!

Nice. hose Roboworms are a great drop shot bait. Can fish them from 10-100' by switching the amount of weight.

Noticed your left handed baitcaster.  I too use only lefties.  I am not left handed, but it doesn't feel right using my right hand to turn the reel.  My stronger arm is my right, and the one I instinctively use to set the hook.

 

Congrats on a solid trip!  Now it's time to get you back out trolling!

My son and i use lefties too in order to rest our rights. All my trolling rods are rights, and i fish so much that tendonitis and fatigue are factors. Consequently all my casting i use left hand retrieve. I switch back and forth surfishing too.
