1st Laker in the new lake

Well we sold the old cottage and are about to finish building the new one. Was out last year since July fishing the new lake when I could. The walleye still elude me here, but we've had some good luck with smallies and pike. A couple of weeks ago I was trolling a Williams Wabler and caught a couple of OOS bass (released of course), and a couple of Pike. Damn the pike are strong.... Then, I was slowly jigging a Gulp on a 5/8 oz Matsuo jighead at around 1 mph and wham.. 8.5 Laker. 1st one... hopefully not the last. Still hunting those Walleye though they are darned tough to catch. I'm missing something.
