Well this past weekend was our last push for whitefish. A large crack developed last week thursday which made us pull most of our gear closer to shore. We finished our season on Sunday by running a lighter crew. We had a great year of whitefishing, the bite seem pretty consistent throughout the year. The biggest challenge was getting to the fish grounds. The combination of a late freeze and rough ice made it difficult, but we made it happen. We hauled the houses home this week and have been strictly targeting walleyes.
The walleye bite is starting to crank up pretty good. We have been fishing 20-30 feet of water using jigging rapala’s with minnows. Ice seems to be holding alright with this warmer weather. I am thinking we should have ice up until next weekend, all depends on the winds and rain. I am running smaller groups for walleyes to some closer shore spots. We walk out and fish a couple hours. Here are a couple pictures from some of the walleyes we have caught this week.
If your looking for a trophy, now is the time!!!
