Had one more day of vacation to spend chasing tail yesterday so I scooped up pops and headed north. Pops took 2 serious skunks in the last week so he was determined to make something happen. We even brought shiners to skunk-proof ourselves, lol.

After an hour or so of skunk, on drifting and casting bait, we decided to start tossing lures. I offered up a personal favorite to pops and he proceeded to catch 3 in the next 30-40 mins. 2 smallies, one bruiser, and a nice pickerel. Soon after, I took the lure back.... Then I proceeded to catch 3 in a row, a shed trifecta!! One slob Larry, a smallie, and a pike jr!! Gave the hot lure back to pops and he caught one more smallie before we took off for the day. Tossed a bunch of different things in the meantime but that one lure took every fish for the day. Crazy........
