wallfish 15,985 #1 Posted August 15, 2015 Finally got the boat ready about a week ago and was able to get out on the water a couple times for some long awaited fishing. Pulled this one in last night and guessing betwwen 5 & 6 lbs, my fist could fit inside it's mouth. Too bad the scale was broken.The fish were fighting strong, even the smaller ones had some spunk to them!Must've had some water get into my fuel system or something because the engine would barely start and then die out. After we were out there of coarse! We had to run back from the other side of the lake about 1/2 mile on the trolling motor in the dark. Now I need to get that straightened out which takes time away from custom Wheel Horse building. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wallfish 15,985 #6 Posted August 15, 2015 (edited) Care to share where ya were.....buddy .Mike...... Quaboag lake, East Brookfield MA.Let me know when you want to come up! We could have a RedSquare tournament I caught small Pike while bass fishing there. I'm always hoping for a huge surprise every time I go but hasn't happened yet. They do a bunch of ice fishing there in winter and the lake gets quite a bit of pressure from tournaments all year long. I like to go out in the evening around 6pm and fish til it gets dark.Here's some info on the lake. quaboag info.pdf Edited August 15, 2015 by wallfish 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wallfish 15,985 #9 Posted August 16, 2015 Of course I don't have a Mass fishin license .Mike........... Just for one evening, I would chance it. More than that you could consider getting a 3 day or for not much more an out of state for the rest of the year. OR, you can hold off on any of them and just do it online using your phone if we happen to see a Warden coming. You can go from no license to having one in less than 3 minutes.
