ccmtcanada Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Good try urbanangler! You'll get em next time I'm sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishindevil Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 well there is lots of fish there i guess they just had a case of lock jaw,your set-ups that you were using are fine...we always used a tip-up as well....right on the bottom like just 6inches above it...and we used small williams wobblers,little cleos and always used a small minow...so i guess you just have to try it again sometime...dont give up and you said there was nobody out there ??? lots of times we were the only people out there as well people would always ask us because they didnt think there was ever any fish there...thats just what we wanted them to think...that was the best part we had the whole place to ourselves better luck next time bud...cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bucktail Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Keep trying urbanangler. There are massive northerns tha come shallow in the cold water period in Lake O tribs. 20-30lbs is not unrealistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weeds Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Hey Urban, I've heard of people having good luck there recently; big pike I hear. I drive by the place on my way to work all the time. Maybe give it another shot. I'll PM you a link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
