The long term forecast looks terrible. In the +'s during the day. Its going to be a late start this season for sure. Fingers crossed we get a fast freeze and can hit some pothole trout ponds at the start of December.  :icefish:

Nice find and nice catch.

You must be awful lucky where you live to find several lakes with decent ice.

I sure would like to see a few pics of these good sized  pike and especially the big walleye.

Southern AB. is I think several weeks away from safe ice.

I was out last weekend at Boulder lake just north of red deer chasing rainbows. Ice was only 6" to 8" still. Gonna be a bit yet before we are able to drive yet

Dandy burbot, nice one Walks on Water. @)

It's always fun to try and get them up the hole when they roll themselves up into a ball.
Than around your arm on the way out. ;)

Yeah, it seems that the fish are being very picky right now, we have to really work to get 1.
Quite a few of us on the SK. form are also reporting fish with lockjaw. :-\

At least the weather is nice to be out in, for the time being. ;)
