Tayzak15 Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Been a long time since I've posted on here! been very busy, but since I had some spare time today I decided to make a quick recap of our 2015 Walleye season and what a season it was! We had our best season yet for big quality Walleye.Fall was definitely the best time of the season for the big girls almost exclusively pulling crankbaits. The majority of these were caught on Horwood with the biggest being a giant 32" 13lb caught in mid October on a size 11 Berkley Flicker minnow! I apologize for the brief summary. I'll let you guys enjoy the photos instead. If anybody has questions about the walleye fishing on the bigger lakes up in this area I'd love to answer/help you guys out. Enjoy!

wormdunker Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 I'm warning you now that Horwood, Chapleau area is on my bucket list! It states in the board rules "you are liable for other members drooling on their keyboard" LOL! Awesome walleyes, thanx for posting. Funny, I was just thinking the other day "where's Tayzak"??, I haven't seen any posts for quite a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Court R Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Awesome! I love Horwood Lake I haven't been there in years the fishing was always great, I see you were running inline planer boards are you catching those fish over deep water and the fish are suspended or fishing structure?

Erect CaptP, to get the dorsal fin to stand up, just tap the back of the fish, in front of the dorsal and it will pop up! HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tayzak15 Posted January 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Awesome! I love Horwood Lake I haven't been there in years the fishing was always great, I see you were running inline planer boards are you catching those fish over deep water and the fish are suspended or fishing structure? A little mix of both, we usually had to experiment a bit each say sometimes they'd be hanging tight to bottom on structure while others they were suspended in the water column. Some of these were caught running crankbaits only 5 feet down over 30-40 ft of water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormdunker Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Awesome job Tayzak. Down only 5'! Surprising they were that shallow, water must have been cold. I started using in line boards last summer on Erie. It definitely improved our hook ups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 I did a canoe trip about 15 years ago from Biscotasing up through to Horwood. What a fantastic area. My memory is fading, but I remember the WOman River being a beautiful piece of water. Rush Lake for some nice pike. Biscotasing had OK fishing too. We did the trip in only 5 days so the ratio of fishing to paddling was out of balance for sure. But I sure caught a lot of fish over the time. Horwood was the last day so had almost no time on that lake. I think I need to go back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netminder Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 I'm actually planning on having our annual fishing outing on Horwood this spring. This is definitely encouraging. Beauty fish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adempsey Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Some real beasts you guys caught! I've always wanted to go back to Horwood. I still have nightmares about the flotilla of logs each morning though. That's a sight for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Ironmaker Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Wowa we wa!!!! Them der is some mighty fine goldies. I count 5 guys maybe 6, is that 17'Lund a little crowed. My eyes aren't what they used to be. I want to see the elbows tucked in a bit when taking a fish pic. No one missed a meal I presume. Hey Wormy Dunker, do I smell a road trip in our future? Your truck my boat. As long as that 150 can get there and back in 1 piece! Na, thinking about it better take the Silverado. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rarely have more than 3 people on my boat at a time unless I'm guiding. Its a 19 foot tracker, not a lund!, and a lot of those eyes were released for another day! Nothing over 20" is kept in my boat in our area unless its going on the wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
