limeyangler Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 Hi all, went to my favourite walleye lake withinn 15 sled ride. Was setting up my outside line, shack not even set up yet....wham...big girl comes rocketing off the bottom in 30' FOW to intercept my falling jig at 20'FOW....holy schmoly...i'd only been there 5 minutes and bagged me a 27"!!!! Unfortunately her swim bladder was in her throat and an eyeball froze almost as soon as i got her out...so what i would normally never keep was a supper fish after all Tasted freekin' great though and with the 17" i got too i've got lunch for me and my coworkers tomorrow too. Missed a bunch of bites, some i managed to get half way up before they managed to eject the hook....dunno how they do that. Anyway with supper sorted in the first 5 minutes i fished hard trying to catch some of the whitefish that are all over the screen all day long...i could get them to chase but none would do the right thing and commit to the tasty morsels i though i so deftly dangled before them....CURSE YOU FUSSY WHITEFISH...I SHALL REEP MY REVENGE!(heading to Shaol Lake for a whitefish session on Sunday) I tried every trick in the box....washed a lot of lures Good afternoon on the ice....not too cold.....and the action was good even if the fish count was lacking. Even the walleye were hyper fussy today....loads of fish coming in to lookkk...like a fish a cast...just had to get the right jiggy wiggy action to tease 'em to bite.

Rod Caster Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 that's a beautiful walleye especially when it only takes a few minutes to catch....The hardest fish to catch is the first one. Whitefish called...they don't want your lures. hehehe...maybe next time

Dutchy Posted January 20, 2011 Report Posted January 20, 2011 Sweet fish, looks like you getting them dialed in now
discophish Posted January 20, 2011 Report Posted January 20, 2011 Way to go Simon! You knew the big fish would be coming. Just a matter of time. Good luck with the whitefish on Sunday. Not that you need any, cause it seems that you have all the luck on your side when you venture out fishing!
Joey Posted January 20, 2011 Report Posted January 20, 2011 Beautiful pickerel Simon. Don't you notice if you get a fish right off the bat, the rest of the day doesn't go as well, if you get any more at all? Weird but true Great report. Joey
Leecher Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 That's another beauty Simon Got to love getting into a beast right off the bat Your making me green with envy Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!!! Jacques
