troutologist Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 Things started one day later than normal with yesterday's false start being brought to you by Weiser's. The crew was rounded up and met at the bait dispensary prior to theyre opening at 6am. With the necessities (minnows, powerade and pizza combos) secured it was a 1 1/2 hr drive followed by a 2km snowshoe to the spot of choice. -25C is cold!! Punched some holes and dropped down a buckshot rattler and this fella hit in about 10sec. Its gonna be a good day. Not so. Things were slow today with 5 guys fishing I got 3 lakers and others lost 2 fish. All the fish came off main lake points in 25-40fow. Not the usual productive start to the season but I avoided the dreaded white stripe. Great day out though put around 8km on the new snowshoes and got into the lake before anyone else this year. Hope everyone else had a good start to trout.
