    I wasn’t planning on fishing Monday…I really wasn’t. But the awesome weather and good friends was just too inviting. We ended up with approx 150 crappies in the boat, a LMB and a nice gill, but the fish of the day was Ethan’s fattie pike. How we got him in the boat is beyond me. The 2nd time I netted him (don’t ask), the hook flew out as soon as the beast was in the net. He ended up going 34″, 9lbs 8oz. Biggest fish of Ethan’s life, and I was glad to get him in the boat for him. I hope next time a 40 incher is waiting!

    OH it feels good to breathe after the fish is in the net! I bet Ethan was on cloud 9 all day!

    Well thank you. The Nebraska board used to be pretty active, and the last couple of years it’s really dropped off. I sure do think it’d be good if everyone would start posting again. There are a lot of NE guys who read this, but none feel the need to opine. I hope that changes.

    Some of Nebraska’s fishing is spectacular. And some isn’t as good as MN, WI or KS. Just depends where and what you’re after. But there’s no arguing Nebraska does offer a lot of great and diverse opportunities.

    I think I may know where you were today….

    Glad you were able to get into some fish. Sure is fun, even if you don’t get a lot of keepers. Just good to get out in the boat when you know time is limited before it freezes up. Lookin like a good week of weather, so I’m guessing those fish will be in some of the same areas for a while. That pike last week sure was a surprise, just like that LMB. Hopin for more…..
