Lots of great fish and fishing in 2021. Best fish pic is from a awesome sail trip in the BVI. But best fish was on Sandy Creek of Lake Ontario.
wg - I fished that hole in the late fall when the water was higher and only saw a couple of smaller fish there. I never would have guessed there was one that big there! I went there today to see what the stream looks like now and thought maybe I might have a chance to wet a line. Nope. The ice formations were absolutely incredible! Here is a photo of that hole and a couple of the ice.Not a chart-busting fish, but likely the "fish of the stream". For that reason, this fish is my most memorable of the year. I generally don't catch large fish (>20") due to the waters I fish, so I have to utilize other criteria to separate the more memorable ones from the others. This guy came from a small red sandstone freestoner.
Darn freestoners! ☺️ I'm sure he's tucked in there with his metabolism shifted to "low gear" for the next month or two. Spring can't come soon enough!wg - I fished that hole in the late fall when the water was higher and only saw a couple of smaller fish there. I never would have guessed there was one that big there!
