misfish Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 (edited) Short report. Windy as all heck. Snapped a poll setting up Get anchored over 55 fow. Lots of swimming going on down there. First two fish herring. Limit out. Next 15 fish after that, herring Next fish small laker. DINNER Next fish, a perch. Snack waiting for dinner. All fish caught on Williams spoon. Fix broken pole, Quick and short Oh and my new Milwacky 18 volt fuel cordless drill. OMG. What a machine. It cut 8" holes like I was using a 4". And my new adapter I made is sweet as well. (Thanks to Kevin for putting me on to this drill) Edited January 10, 2015 by Brian B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 (edited) and I did not catch a thing on my williams...hmmmmm but caught about 30 herring on really small jigs and most of them hit while I was reeling the jig away from them just like trout would chase Edited January 10, 2015 by Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misfish Posted January 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 (edited) Brian, Did you snap a fishing pole or carbon pole for your hut. I have a great fix for the hut poles. Duct tape and flex hose is my friend Simon. If the buggers didnt glue the one end in, I could of replaced it with a fiberglass rod. It broke Im sure my last outing. I broke it down the wrong way. I will send Eskimo an email and see if I can get a replacement. I will be honest with them. No sense Bull craping them.

Rod Caster Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Those herring are super skinny compared to the Nip ones! They actually look like they'd be less fatty. Here's Nick with a couple tall-back Nip ciscoes. And Blair, Brian is correct, they are full of big nasty worms from Nipissing! Gross stuff.

NAW Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Yup. Both of those herring where just rammed with worms. The most I have ever seen in my life. Hey, good job Brian!! I made it out yesterday. Also snapped a rod!! And you are correct about the wind. It was nasty! I had to pry these poor perches jaws open for my usual elbow lock pose!!!
