Crazy story about this guy. I was fishing my local harbour after work today on a mission to find the infamous whitby harbour pike. Metal leaders, spoons, spinner baits, you name it all stocked up before driving to the spot. I was switching between bottom fishing and using lures. I figured it Doesn't hurt to catch a cat for fun, while trying to get a pike to bite. I'm trying different retrieves, fast slow, letting it hit bottom, stop and go. I cast out let it hit bottom, steady retrieve and boom a little steelhead.(Or Atlantic still not sure) Honestly not the biggest but definitely the most unexpected 😁

Always like to fish these in the pre season. Gotta make sure my gear is ready for them giants.
