Set Hike Summary

Set Hike the play began and Will went out for the pass did a eight yard hitch, WOOF the ball left the QB’s hand and landed right in the hands of Will in the endzone. SCORE the touchdown is good. After the play and being congratulated he felt something vibrating in his pocket, so acting normal and all he grabbed his phone and realized it was his dad who rarely calls him the only reason would be if something went wrong and someone died or he just wanted to talk to him. When he answered the phone he said “Hey Dad...” When he didn’t hear an answer he almost hung up but all of a sudden heard the voice of his grandpa steve talking to his dad about the trip to Canada for a huge fishing tournament that he wanted Will his dad Bill and their cousin
While he was working on getting everything ready his dad came in and told will to put his stuff into the car and get in because they were gonna go fishing. Will being curious and all asked where they were going his dad responded saying that they were going to go to Winnebago and take grandpa’s boat. Will felt that he had been all wrong thinking they were going to Canada put his stuff in and got into the car. But while they were traveling Will realized that they had gone past their grandparents and were heading to the lake without the boat and when Will turned around he realized that his grandpa and cousin were behind them, his grandpa the one with the boat. Realizing what he just saw he turned to his dad and asked with a happy expression what they were doing, his dad all of a sudden popped a party popper and sang “ We’re going on a fishing trip”. Will knowing this would have come at some point acted extremely surprised and almost pulled the seatbelt out of its receiver in joy. His dad didn’t tell him the canada part until they stopped at the gas station five hours later. His dad also told him that they were gonna be in the car

At that size it is sixty times bigger than lake Winnebago which is located in Wisconsin and not even half the size of lake Superior which is also located in Wisconsin so it is big but not humongous. When the boat was out in the water we took it out and went to the far right side of the lake and found a area that was perfect for Salmon and not to far from a location that would be perfect for a Northern Pike or Musky. They stopped the boat in the area for the Pike and Musky but didn’t anchor it because while you are casting you don’t want to fish in the same spot to much because it may scare all the fish away and then you won’t get a chance at anything. After they stopped the boat Will grabbed his stuff which had been set up with the lure he wanted and took a cast it plopped in the water and he started reeling. Almost immediately something hit the lure with a hard strike he jerked the pole up knowing that if you don’t it is very possible that you could lose the fish if you don’t jerk the pole. He started reeling in and knew that he fish was big by the bend of the pole and the force of the fish. He was reeling for about five minutes and then finally got the fish in. His dad was ready with a net that they picked up for the trip and netted the fish and got into the
