Hows the wind out there? I got nothing here in Southern Madison.....
30mph sustained, gusts above 50mph here, just went out to shovel and check pipes, had a hard time walking against it, got woke up at 2am last night by house shaking thunder..... lightning was really blue, good stuff.
Idiots!!!!
You guys hear about the dirt bags that were poaching this past wknd? One younger idiot took 48 eyes off the ice on Saturday, he was fishing the north bay area, a couple witnesses said he was not caught in the act.... Then another scum bag was nailed by the DEC in Const. with twenty some eyes in his possession. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?!? What REALLY urks me is these people who do this are those who fish almost every day!! Do they REALLY need these fish that bad? I don't think so!
It is a shame but sadly I am not surprised. All you can do is turn people in if you see it going on.BTW - nice job 600rev!
Wind seems to have laid down a bit from this morning but still gusting pretty good here near the south shore. Tends to be a little stronger near the edges of the snow bands.

At constantia today, zero snow!
Snagger, awesome video again! Right there with you watching them lines, even got the heart pumping! Thanks I needed that!
There is still a black market for selling walleye fillets to certain restaurants. They are ALL supposed to be from Canada, but I know that is not always true, but they are probably just game hogs. I know of guys that bragged about shooting 20+ turkeys in the winter, just because they could. No way anyone could eat that much turkey.
so u guys didn't get any snow there?planning on thurs or fri just wondering what the conditions are!!!
god theres a lot of fish cooperating this season, bet February is tough though.
Hey guys, question. Do you guys use a snap swivel to attach your jig or tie the line right to the jig itself while fishing for walleyes?? I want to use the line to the jig but worry about those teeth cutting the line as there shaking there heads on the way up. How you tie them?? Thanks
