On my fourteenth visits to the marina at Ashbridges Bay park, I landed a damn nice fish. Not terribly large, but a beautiful pike that put up a decent struggle. With Ken on the net, we got it in in fairly short order. It'd gotten the "rattlin' rapala" crankbait fairly well into its mouth; hence the blood.
