Oyster Lake Base Camp 2013 (Green,Rocky,Ramshead, Ninamoose)
by Waxworm80
Hit the the portage to Green Lake which is a little more of an incline, but not much. I was kind of disappointed as I heard this lake was an odd color green, but it just looked like a greener then average lake. Much flatter shoreline then Rocky, but still some head stones poking out here and there. Took the south eastern approach long lining and casting. Picked up some hammer handles here and there, but was very disappointed in the amount. Eventually, ended up on a rock in the North Western bay. Fished there for a couple hours. It was nice to stop paddling for awhile. My GF made her first cast ever on a bait caster, with a Glidin Rap and wham..a nice 36 1/2 inch Gator!! I was happy, amazed and a tiny bit jealous.hahah. She's a good woman! I actually went to take a picture with her and her fish here and accidentally untied the canoe. I didn't notice right away and when I looked back... it was already a pretty good swim away. Cold!! Off go the clothes... you wanna talk about shrinkage!!haha
Canoe 2 met up with us here and we continued to fish, catching some decent fish..even a Warlord.hah. We cut up our fish and head back to camp. Made a detour to North end of Rocky, stopped on a Rock for awhile and picked up a small, smallmouth. Didn't stay too long.
We went back across Oyster a couple more times before dark. Was almost a gimmie crossing the lake with a long liner. We spent the campfire debating whether we should stay or go to Ramshead. We also lightened up the alchohol load a lot.haha. Good Times!!
