gone_fishin Posted February 23, 2007 Report Posted February 23, 2007 Got back from a great day at Smokey's today. started fishing around 9am after getting set up in the hut and everything. as soon as i got my spreader to the bottom i had a fish on...didn't get it up, but a good start to the day none the less. about ten minutes later and we've already missed 3 fish. then i finally get one up...about a 4-5 lb whitefish, my first whitefish. and while i was fighting that, my brother hooked one as well, he missed that one. after untangling the lines that were stuck from the fight, we get our lines back down...as soon as mine hits the bottom, i've got another fish on, this time a 4 lb lake trout. all of this action was between 9 and 10:30am. after that fish, we didn't have much action until my dad pulled in a nice 5 lb lake trout at about 2:30. and that was all we got for the rest of the day, we left the lake just after 4pm. from 10:30 - 2:30 we had sporadic hits, but nothing stuck around long enough to get a hook set.

motv8tr Posted February 23, 2007 Report Posted February 23, 2007 Good stuff, first time this year I've seen a whitefish come out of Simcoe, good to know they're there and hungry Maureen
Big Cliff Posted February 23, 2007 Report Posted February 23, 2007 Super report! I got to get out there one of these days real soon and get a few white fish.
woodro Posted February 23, 2007 Report Posted February 23, 2007 Awsome, looks like it was fun. I was out with my father and Snagmasteral yesterday with no luck at all. The weather started to turn, wind gusts up to 50kph, so it made it a little uncomfortable to sit out there without a hut. What depth were you fishing?
fishnsled Posted February 23, 2007 Report Posted February 23, 2007 Congrats on your outting! Great report too!

What depth were you fishing? we were in 80FOW. i had my fishfinder there, we were marking fish all day long. marked some suspended smelt and possibly small herring at about 40 - 50 feet. all of the lakers and whities were within 3 or 4 feet of bottom.
jeffw Posted February 23, 2007 Report Posted February 23, 2007 Good job and nice fish. I think that the warm weather turned the fish on yesterday. Cheers Jeff
