Jigger Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 Headed up to Haliburton yesterday in hopes of some fat fall musky, but alas, it wasn't to be. Water was like glass all day. I got on the water and took a run around the lake trying to mark fish and set-up a trolling route. Fish started showing up on the finder from 18fow to 26fow. Most were at the base of drop-offs but they were belly to the dirt, all of them. Not one suspended fish. I trolled these areas with deep diving cranks, spinnerbaits and even threw a few jigs. Not even a tick. After awhile I got bored and tried for some schooled up fish I figured for Smallies. I put out a hair jig and suspended it right in their faces for a long time while I ate lunch before getting back out and trolling some more. It was a real nice day anyways and on one hand, I'm glad it wasn't windy because the comfort level was acceptable. But I think if it kicked up a bit the fish would've turned on and I'd have a better story for you. But it didn't and I don't . Water was stuck at 41deg and I couldn't find one area warmer or colder than that the whole day. Maybe ice isn't that far away? Oh well, theres no ice yet so I hope to get out at least one more time. Take it easy. I'll try some pics... Wishful thinking,I was trying out the self timer on the camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
