Decided to hit the POR today after a tough couple days at Newman with only a couple Largemouth to show for it. Fished for a few hours and landed 3 Pike (not much size to any of them), 1 Smallmouth, and a decent size pike minnow to toss on the bank. We decided to keep 2 of the Pike for dinner. Whenever I fillet them I like to check whats in their stomachs, usually there are just perch and pumpkinseed. This time in one of the fish I found a Mouse that looked like it had been eaten very recently! I know they eat a big variety of things but this came as a surprise! I guess I might have a new bait to try...

I guess it's back to Newman to try and get that first Tiger!

Way to go Mark. You'd be surprised what you find in the bellies of those pike. Back home a few had muskrats and one of the bigger Pike my dad caught had a small duck in its belly. Might be headed that way this next weekend coming up. Came up with some gas money. So i may be giving you a call. Maybe we can hit Silver while I am out that way. Daughter is getting into her apt out at Eastern Wa Univ..Maybe I can netyour first Tiger. See ya pal, Todd

Way to go Mark. I fished the river today and we got 3 hammer handles and 4 bass over 3lbs. I saw about 5 other Pike but no takers. The waters starting to cool down a bit it was only 68. Let me know if you want to hit Newman this week or silver. The meetings Tuesday dont forget 6:30pm. Maybe fish thursday?

Thanks guys! Not a bad day for you with the Bass!! I did notice the temp had gone down a bit in the 2 weeks since I was there last... I seen 70 where I was Sunday. I'm down for fishing any day Craig. Hopefully my work schedule doesn't interfere with your schedule. Whichever lake is fine by me! And I'm looking forward to the meeting tomorrow!

If you end up with any spare time Todd, definitely give me a call! And a Muskrat! That's Crazy!
