Guest ThisPlaceSucks Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 (edited) On Sunday I headed out with one of the usual suspects to chase some late winter square tails. After a brief detour to ascertain some forgotten snowshoes, we were headed out of town by 5 am. By 9 am we were fishing. Things started off slow but true to form, this lake produced the first speck shortly after 10 am. Fish were very selective in the early a.m. taking only jigged presentations tipped with minnows. From 11 am until 1 pm fishing was fairly steady and we managed to ice several chunky fish - including a 2lber and a 3+ I lost fumbling with it at the hole. Note to self, keep camera closer. Throughout the day we had regular visitors...these whiskeyjacks kept stealing our lunch and bait... It was a pretty good day. Tomorrow is pinnin' for steel and ice fishing for brookies! Good luck this weekend folks! Edited March 19, 2010 by Dr. Salvelinus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dara Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 you mean the crowds don't hike 15km in a day by snowshoe to fish? 15 k or 15 yards, there just aren't the crowds up here. Most places, cept for haviland and trout lake, you get the lake to yourself And don't be too sad about losing the 3 lber...they ain't all that good a eating anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My secret weapon that day was a swedish pimple tipped with a full dace however my fishing partners secret is an old battered williams that was his grandfathers. He always uses it! On days when he's outfishing me he'll often tell me that "yours is missing the tarnish"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
