Anyone been out here to test the fishing and ice this season? Be safe out there this year.

Hey pikehunter . Did you see alot of minnows in the water,last summer the lake was just full . How about Walleye ...see any ?

pikehunter1989 · « **Reply #5 on:** Dec 07, 2012, 02:49 PM »

No walleye seen yet by me anyways. Often well have a school of tiny perch and shiners come through

Has anyone been fishing Pigeon Lake lately?

Went to Wabamun today on a last minute decision, didn't get skunked but close. Only one 5 lb pike on the ice, lost 2 or 3 others.

Dec 9 2012 Went out on the west side of Wabaman (seba Beach) moved the tent twice and both places were only 10 inches thick.
Had my hand down the hole up to the elbows trying to get a fish off my camera cable and the water realy was not that cold.
Heard the east end of the lake is around 12 inches. might have to get to - 30 for a few weeks for ice to get thicker.

How did you do at Seba Beach homewreaker?

swampy45 · « **Reply #10 on:** Dec 11, 2012, 08:34 PM »

fishing all over the lake was slow for me today. $:-\$

have fished the Ascott beach area the last two sundays. Both times we got two up the hole and missed about 4 on the tipups. Was about 12" of ice this past Sunday. Pics are from two Sundays ago. Forgot my camera on our last trip.

BEAUTY! How heavy was she, you figure?

I tried twice to download a pic of my biggest pike to date last year from Wab....failed. Sure are some BIG BIG fish in there.

Thanks for sharing the pics!

Good Fishin'!

I went to wab yesterday and beware of ice conditions i found almost a foot in most places but found a section east of fallis that was only six. The pike were biting though not on any movement. had to dead stick sardines to catch em.

FishAreFun · « **Reply #14 on:** Dec 13, 2012, 08:04 PM »

I was out today for 3 hours only 3 fish landed all in the 5 to 9 pound range. We were at ascott beach i think saw lots of perch but no walleye yet

jaystev · « **Reply #15 on:** Dec 30, 2012, 04:33 PM »

on 4 lbline !

swampy45 · « **Reply #16 on:** Jan 03, 2013, 09:06 PM »

Ryan and I were out there the other day and it was slow for what I was used too. Jackfish proved a little better.

jason22 · « **Reply #17 on:** Jan 13, 2013, 09:12 PM »

How has Wabamun been for people lately? Have not seen any posts on it in a little while.

ryanlookingforperch · « **Reply #18 on:** Jan 13, 2013, 10:05 PM »

Biggins are still being pulled. The bigger the bait the better in my experience.

I have found it really slow.

Good fishin'!

jason22 · « **Reply #19 on:** Jan 19, 2013, 11:41 PM »

Fishing was slow for me at Seba today. Only 2 pike, but still fun times. Anyone else out ther this weekend?

swampy45 · « **Reply #20 on:** Jan 28, 2013, 12:47 PM »

Has anyone found the pike fishing to generally be slower than usual this year? Ive been out several times to several different areas that have previously produced large numbers of large pike and have either returned skunked, or only landed a handful of small hammer handles.

ryanlookingforperch · « **Reply #21 on:** Jan 28, 2013, 08:53 PM »

Wab is one of the exceptions this year for me. The numbers are way lower and size hasn't compared to the 10-15lb'ers I have often caught.....and the moster 27lb'er....hope I catch some big fish there again ...soon!

Good Fishin'!

jason22 · « **Reply #22 on:** Jan 28, 2013, 11:31 PM »

I have found it slower for pike for me to. One lake I went to lots last year we could catch 30 or so pike in a day between a few guys, not it was like pulling teeth to get 10. With my camera at a few of the lakes I have always seen lots down there, and some nice sized ones to. Just not interested in my bait and I have been switching and trying different set ups with not a whole lot of change in luck.

swampy45 · « **Reply #23 on:** Jan 29, 2013, 08:51 AM »

ive noticed that as well... the same presentations are not working, nor is anything else in my bag of tricks... seems a little odd to me, but hey, im not a fish.

BlackEcoboost · « **Reply #24 on:** Feb 03, 2013, 12:13 AM »

Anyone headed out tomorrow? I'm going to Fallis area to feed the fish from sunrise to sunset ;-)

swampy45 · « **Reply #25 on:** Feb 05, 2013, 09:51 AM »

how did you make out BlackEcoBoost?

#1fisherman · « **Reply #26 on:** Feb 05, 2013, 07:01 PM »

I'm seeing lots of fish on the Cam but notice they just swim by for the most part. I have seen some really huge fish and been lucky enough to land a few in the low teens. My theory is the rapid change of barometric pressure we have been experiencing. One week cold, next mild, next cold, thats messes with me why not them? I think March will be making everybody happy as the pre-spawn urge will be building in them and the usual aggressiveness we all love will be driving them on to kill again. God bless them!

boonedocks · « **Reply #27 on:** Feb 07, 2013, 06:54 AM »

What are driving conditions like now? Im thinking of hitting the Fallis area this saturday. Should I bring my skidoo or am I good with the 4x4?

ryanlookingforperch · « **Reply #28 on:** Feb 07, 2013, 04:39 PM »

I'd love an update to the ice on WAB as well,....might hit it Sat ...try for a new record...lol. I Gotta beat 30lbs now!

swampy45 · « **Reply #29 on:** Feb 07, 2013, 06:34 PM »

slow, slow, slow
