My son wanted to go fishing so we picked up some minnows and a few pike shiners and went down to the old power plant canaI in Haddam. We got to the canal about 10:00 and it was pretty windy so I had some problems keeping anchored. My son had a nice hit on a pike shiner but it turned out to be a catfish.

We were about to leave when I got a nice hit on a pike shiner but missed the fish. A few minutes after that, my son gets a bite and brings in a nice pike just under 33 inches.

I thought we would get more action on the small minnows but not too bad for a few hours.

Thanks. It's always a good time when you can get out there with your kids. Even if he does always catch more than me.
