tawas river

[axemanscott]

well the ole lady wanted to go shopping so she droped me and the kid off at the mouth of the tawas river.We were casting lures with no signs of fish and noone else around all of a sudden out of nowhere this garpike rolls in and just moseys along the bottom.He appeared to be round 30 inches,well me and the kids had lures crossing over, under,along side and in front of this thing and all he did was mosey along.So in short no fish caught but one sited.

dont get over there too much but i did see one today. the lures where darn near hitting him and he didnt even flinch just slowly swam around for a bit. I have never caught one myself but we were really just killing time while the ole lady shopped.
