I've never fished this lake before. Can anyone tell me spost to go with and without a wheeler/snowmobile? What about parking?
Page one says there is no safe ice on the lake.
A friend and I went fishing out of Bixby Beach Saturday and only caught 5 perch, other people we talked to around there weren't having a lot of luck either. Hopefully do better next time we go up, maybe target lakers more then.Also, I was wondering if there was still somewhere to park to access Dunham's Bay, we used to park at the lot off Bay Road the last time I went there (about 7 years ago) but last year it wasn't plowed. Do they not plow it anymore? Anywhere else to park there? PM me if you could, thanks.
Went to vets yesterday in search of perch and found nothing but Lakers. Fished from 17ft. - 30ft. 2 of the 10 Lakers caught came in 17 row.
ss I went out of Bixby rd sat also. did pretty good got 30. parked my truck right at the end of the road in front of the stop sign. got the quad stuck once out of 4 moves. need a sled for next year so I can get out futher.
Looking to get on some perch not from the area any info would be greatly appreciated I will be walking thanks
Well I limited today on perch. At least half are jumbos. They are moving into the shallows water. I also ended up getting 10 pumpkinseed's and 2 of them were Giants.where r the perch at I don't see them in pic We really had to work to get the big perch tho. We cut holes and moved all day. It paid off The perch is 13" for size reference.
Went out from Vets Thursday with my friend Dwight and tried fishing a little deeper in search of some fresh fish who have not had a steady diet of pimples dropped on their heads for the last 6 weeks! The bite was slow as expected and conditions were downright miserable but we did end up catching some decent fish including a nice fat 29" that I got on 6lb test and a medium action jig rod. The fish fought me hard for 15 min and took me to the bottom in 138 FOW twice! Dwight got a nice one that almost ran out his entire spool of line on a Heritage Laker! That was not fun to wind back up in the wind! Good times! Mike
There wasn't 272 pages ago .... there is now If you guys are complete newbies to the lake consider hiring Capt JJ for a day. It would be money well spent.If not read up and you will get all sorts of info.MDB or Vets are the obvious choices. Find a contour map and start fishing. Perch in 30-50' and lakers anywhere from 30 - 100+ feet.
Nice fish guys.We had another good weekend of jigging for lakers, did pretty well for beginners.(Image removed from quote.)
Not sure guys but I don't think there are any lakers stoked in recent years, they are naturally reproducing...Maybe Cpt. JJ has some info on this...Barebow
