Gull Lake, yes!
« on: Feb 23, 2019, 06:37 PM »
I wasn't planning to head to Gull but things just turned out that way.  Didn't exactly get there early.  I arrived around 9 a.m.  Really not much snow but the odd place where it piles up.  About 8-10 inches were it does otherwise nothing but a crust. 

Started out in 13 FOW.  Clear!  Like Sylvan clear!  I can't tell you how happy that made me.  It has been many years since you could see more than 2-3 feet.  This was a treat!  I like to sight fish whites sooooooooooooo....time to get at it.  So 50 minutes....nothing.  I'm thinking of giving it another 15-20 min and heading back home.  Throwin in the towel.  Thoughts of "whatever happened to Gull, flooding my head".

Low and behold, here comes a burb!  Big too.  And quickly followed by a 2nd burb.   About 5-6 feet behind the trailing burb, a big white!  I knew at this point that things had turned.   

Had a great morning of fishing from there.  The whites were lights out aggressive.   Also had a big pike about 3 inches across the back come in.  Best part is a could see it all from above.   Had my limit of whites before noon and headed off very happy with the results.  I did hook one male burb as well and it had a long white spunk trail hanging out so they are getting ready and close to the spawn.

First two


Full boat - 3.1, 2.8 and 2.5 lbers


Awesome!
