I had a tough day of fishing out on lake Geneva and decided to put the glide in my hand. I caught this pike that was around 30” long. I also had a huge number of big bass follow the bait, more 5+ pound bass than I’ve ever seen in the lake. Later I also caught some smaller bass on a little Swimbait.
