Guest ThisPlaceSucks Posted January 10, 2010 Report Posted January 10, 2010 went fishing yesterday! absolutely nothing went right! my friend forgot the bait, i broke a snowhoe on the hike in, i got skunked, and at the end of the day i put an entire leg up to my hip through thin ice. be careful in the north. all of that snow early in the season has left us with some pretty terrible ice. man, what a day.
trapshooter Posted January 10, 2010 Report Posted January 10, 2010 tough one. still beats riding the couch all day.
Guest ThisPlaceSucks Posted January 10, 2010 Report Posted January 10, 2010 amen to that. the afternoon was actually gorgeous weather! too bad the fish didn't get the memo we were coming!
hendrix Posted January 10, 2010 Report Posted January 10, 2010 tough morning for me as well, after walking for 20 minutes on the ice wee realized we forgot the reels in the car, my friend forgot his new license at home, and the auger was barely working. and yes, skunked again at least i know we're not alone

You know what they say: A bad day fishin'.... One good hour on the ice and all those troubles will be forgotten.
anders Posted January 10, 2010 Report Posted January 10, 2010 crappy deal man. we had solid ice where we were fishing...a good 12 inch...no slush nothing, hope over to another lake and slush galore, could almost push the auger through without turning. Were you in the park? I will give a low down tomorrow about the day.
Eazy Posted January 10, 2010 Report Posted January 10, 2010 Seems to be alot of recent skunkings lately......myself included!
vinnimon Posted January 10, 2010 Report Posted January 10, 2010 Same for us in the southern end.Lots of fish attracted and seen on the aquaview.the only ones that nibbled were tiny smelt nibbling on our minnows.The pickerel had there noses to the bait.The shad swam happily around.Attracted a monster bass and a chromie.Even the perch and bluegill sat cautiously.we were using the hotest thing going and switching to old favorites,with stingers and all.You name it ,weve tried it.Maybe a drop in pressure could of done it. It was hard fishin for sure,the aquaview kept us entertained for sure.

DRIFTER_016 Posted January 11, 2010 Report Posted January 11, 2010 I was supposed to finally get out this weekend, until we ended up having a blizzard that started late Friday and lasted most of Saturday. So there went Saturday's fishing, Today was spent digging out. Too cold to go fishing today now that the cold front moved through. Froze my butt off out in the yard running the snowblower for almost 2 hours in -40 windchills!!! YEAAAAY!!! Next week is looking good so far though.
Guest ThisPlaceSucks Posted January 11, 2010 Report Posted January 11, 2010 i'm anxious to see some reports from your "MAP FULL OF LAKES" for sure. how do you even choose?
DRIFTER_016 Posted January 11, 2010 Report Posted January 11, 2010 i'm anxious to see some reports from your "MAP FULL OF LAKES" for sure. how do you even choose? Darts!!!!! I have several lakes I fish regularly amd I try a few new ones every winter.
foggynotions Posted January 11, 2010 Report Posted January 11, 2010 It was an ok weekend of fishing up at Ranger Lake area too, we went up north of Saymo to a few lakes, we all limited out on lakers, no specks this weekend. It took us the whole day to limit out, the fish weren't hitting too great. The morning fish never really turned on, but the evening was good, we all got decent hits and all limited out at around 4pm. After that...hit the trails home and filleted and chowed down!
