Stopped at you booth at the boat show but the nice woman that was there informed me that you were not around for a couple of days. The show was impressive for sure!! I was out yesterday as well I managed 4 and a half lakers jigging from the house. the 1/2 is for the one that only made it half way out of the hole. Your friend brad is correct snow is deep near some of the islands from the wind. See ya on the ice
Bob and Colan, Thanks for a fun time and for all your help. We had a blast. Jordan asked if we can go again this weekend. He's hooked.
Yes, the snow is deep up against the shorelines. If you have a wheeler do not stray off the packed snowmobile tracks. If there are no tracks to speak of....stay away!!! This was our case. Spent way too much effort digging out. Only got about 50 yds off shore. Didnt feel too bad. Some knucklehead had a truck with a snowmobile trailer with sleds stuck on the ice. If you have the sleds, why are you on the ice with the truck?
Bob came to the rescue with and empty pull sled. We got our gear out that way.
Thanks again for all your help.
StillFishin... Did you happen to see a blue four wheeler to the east of you get stuck around 10am? I tried coming out to say hi from the point we are working on, but didn't make it too far before the wheels started spinning on the glare ice beneath the snow. Had to put it in ultra low with the differential locked to get outta there.
You definitely had quite the group out there.
My brother and I ended up fishing by Lees Mills for yellows and pickerel... not much happening there.
Actually we did see you. Sorry didn't know it was you and didn't really know you were stuck , but we did see it headed back to shore. You should have yelled you to us.
Now you know you "secret" spot:)
Wasn't stuck more than a minute or two... just had to keep backing up and then plunging ahead. No biggie.
I was out there visiting Adrien and Travis the day they fished there a few weeks ago. My cousin used to ice fish that spot for white perch years ago. He actually put some derby prize winners on the board from there too. We're gonna try sometime this week after work and see if we can locate the "mother load of whites". Will let you know if we get into them.
