Rice Lake report

[Stoty]

Two of my buddies and I headed out to Rice Lake yesterday (Sunday) morning, with high hopes of getting a few nice walleyes..........

 

Those high hopes soon turned to desperation!

We fished from 5:30 a.m - noon.

Threw bucktails, crankbaits, jigs, worm harness'...YOU NAME IT....

 

Between the 3 of us we got 3 smallies, 2 rock bass, and a perch!

 

We got so desperate, we even resorted to trying to get some crappie.....(also to no avail)

 

Turns out, that was the day we had... very "crappie"!

 

Got a nice tan though! lol

 

 

Hopefully Stoney is a little better this weekend.

Hi Stoty,

 

Reading your story I don't feel so bad about my weekend. I had set out to find Crappie and couldn't keep the little Pike off. Imagine a 25" Pike interested in a micro tube? Was fun though on ultralight gear. Changed the target to Pike and then got into a couple OOS Smallies and Largemouth. The ones you want never seem to be available when you want them.

 

At least we were out...

Stoty,

To bad you didn't get any pickerel but at least you had a few tugs on the line. Good luck on your next outing.

Atleast you got out for the day. Rice has been hit and miss for eyes and crappie so it must have been a miss day. As you said atleast you got a nice tan. Good luck on the next outing.

The fish were off last weekend. Must be the storm last friday that scared them away I'm pretty sure they are back on this week

[Stoty]

Thanks for the good wishes!

I will be on Stoney this week and next (for opening Bass).

Hopefully mother nature will be nice to me!

 

I have seen people fishing for Muskie's on here, but doesn't musky open with Bass?

Musky's already open on the Kawarthas ( 1st Saturday in June). I'll be chasing them next week on

Lwr. Buckhorn. Good luck on Stoney. Watch out for underwater ROCKS!!!!
