Eagle Lake Island Lodge Pike fishing on TSN this Week.

Posted on July 23rd, 2009

[singlepic id=170 w=320 h=240 float=]Barb & I have fished a lot of lakes for pike, but when we were taken into one of the guided back-lakes out from Eagle Lake Island Lodge, I have to tell you that I did not expect to catch 50-100 pike in just a few hours.  Getting in there was neat since we boated to the far-end of the Eagle Lake, than meandered up a small river until we got to a beaver dam.  Low and behold at the beaver dam there was a G3 10′ Jon Boat waiting for us, that’s when we had to unload our fishing gear, including a 12-volt deep cycle battery and a portable Humminbird sonar, and load it into the small Jon Boat.  We barely got out of the small channel and in the 2nd or 3rd cast we started nailing pike.  Most off the fish averaged 3-5 lb., but the action was non-stop.  We lost track of the amount of double-headers we hooked and ended up destroying several spinnerbaits from hooking so many pike.  The fish may not have been huge, but like two kids we had a blast!!  If you want to see non-stop action, tune in to the show this week on TSN.  If you have an interesting pike story I would love to hear about it.
