luclarochelle Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 Hey guys, So I got out onto lady Simcoe over my reading week, I took a break from the books and had some fun on the ice!! I have been doing real good on splake fishing at school but it felt nice to have something on the line that put up a fight Anyhow, we got 10 fish in total and lost numerous amount of fish mid fight damn humpacks!!!! The key to this trip... the tactics that I would use for perch fishing... Shallow water was key for these buggers!! well heres a look at the fish Now its back up to school for some splake and smelt fishing... Tight lines, Luc
Steve Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 not really into ice fishing, but sweet largie in your avatar!!
wormdunker Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 Those are some impressive fish young fella! Way to go! Huge whities!
BillM Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 (edited) Whities have been extremely shallow this year, blame the gobies! Good shooting! Edited February 25, 2015 by BillM
Jds63 Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 those are beauties for sure ..... looks like a great day of fishing ....
luclarochelle Posted February 25, 2015 Author Report Posted February 25, 2015 Whities have been extremely shallow this year, blame the gobies! Good shooting! Yes they have been!! The whities we kept were full of gobies!!

cram Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 Wow. Nice fish. Better than any day I've ever had ice fishing.
xxgoaler Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 How deep did you find the whitey's at Luc ?
luclarochelle Posted February 25, 2015 Author Report Posted February 25, 2015 How deep did you find the whitey's at Luc ? 30 to 50 fow
misfish Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 Thats some real nice fish there dude. If you get into the smelts,mind posting a pic of them. Would like to see the size your getting.
luclarochelle Posted February 25, 2015 Author Report Posted February 25, 2015 This is about the average size of the smelt as well as the splake!!
misfish Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 Nice. I enjoy catching them, as I love eating them.
xxgoaler Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 Thanks Luc, been fishing just over 50 fow, maybe time to come in a bit, nice fish, need me some, the wife has been trying to hook one but unsuccessful so far this year. Maybe this weekend
123chadder Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 Whities have been extremely shallow this year, blame the gobies! Good shooting! i cant catch them in any less than 90 fow.....
luclarochelle Posted February 26, 2015 Author Report Posted February 26, 2015 i cant catch them in any less than 90 fow..... They are all over the place!! I just tried something new and got success! Ive never had much luck in deep water myself but have marked a ton of whities out in the 90 fow range. It comes down to a preference thing for sure
Mister G Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 They are all over the place!! I just tried something new and got success! Ive never had much luck in deep water myself but have marked a ton of whities out in the 90 fow range. It comes down to a preference thing for sure Those shallow water fish are on the feed while those deep water fish are mostly not. NICE CATCH AND GREAT REPORT ! ! !
BillM Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 i cant catch them in any less than 90 fow..... When you think you're too shallow, go shallower
luclarochelle Posted February 26, 2015 Author Report Posted February 26, 2015 When you think you're too shallow, go shallower Exactly!!
123chadder Posted February 27, 2015 Report Posted February 27, 2015 the best lure i use is a badboy tipped with a small black and silver tube,but i try lots...lakers i killed this year....i got a 20ish the other day in 25fow......they are moving in shallow following the baitfish.......got it on a chub sucker on a flag...yes they work!lol
