Just before school started, our family decided to head up north. We had a fun time seeing the sights, and we spent time fishing across the Upper Peninsula. Dad took me fishing at Kingtston Lake along the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. I caught a lot of perch there. When we were leaving, I happened to notice a boat come into the dock. I looked inside the boat, and it reminded me of pictures I have seen of muskie fishing boats. Then, I asked the fisherman if he had caught any muskie. He said not today, but the day before he caught a 42-incher and he gave me a muskie spinner!
A couple of weeks later in DeWitt, I was back on the sacred waters of the Looking Glass, fishing for pike. Right under the Bridge Street bridge, I caught a 32-incher. He did not take the bait at first, but I stuck with him. He spat out the minnow a few times. Then he stopped messing around and took my minnow for good. A nice mom and her little kid came along and asked if I caught anything, and I showed them a picture of the big scary fish I just caught. I look forward to more pike fishing in the fall!
