Tuesday, May 22, 2007-We woke up early and and had a breakfast of oatmeal headed towards Green Lake. AS you may now Green Lake is full of pike. My grandpa and I caught 6 pike while my dad and other friend didn't catch a thing. We took a break and had lunch and decided that it wasn't worth fishing this lake anymore. We went back to Oyster lake and fished it. We did very good on it catching many more bass and keeping 5 more for dinner. We ate dinner and we decided to go try for lake trout. (Up to this point the lake had been very windy.) We got out there and never caught a thing. The Lake trout just were not biting. We came back in, had desert and soon went to bed.
