Thetis Lake

Made a trip out of the home region to get into some fish on Vancouver Island. It wasn’t an easy task, but nearly 5 hours into day one I was on my first fish. Didn’t get him on a scale but I would guess he was in the ballpark of 3 lbs. Went without a bite for the rest of the trip (7 water hours) but this one fish kept me happy. Always fun to explore new waters. Tight lines fam!

Hooked a rainbow

Smally at thetis lake

My brother caught a nice smallie

went for a little boating around thetis, came to shore and wound up catching this guy right at shore by accident (lure was just sitting in the water off My boat). released him and he decided to just hang around with me for a bit. Definitely made the night day perfect because later on wound up losing my favorite rapala rattlin. and then to top it off. encountered a pair of wild Karen's that ruined a fishing spot for me till fall
