Okoboji

Fished the Triboji area this morning.  Caught some fish there late last year, but only 2 small gills today.  I did get to try out my new Marcum which was my main goal.  Lots of people on Big Spirit, but I don't know what, if anything was being caught.  Lots of people moving around.  It was pretty much 5 shacks coming on the ice as 5 shacks were heading off.  A few shacks at the grade, but there always seems to be.  The location is pretty convinient.  Anyone have any success today?

GOOD LUCK

Fished Miller's Bay on West Okoboji Saturday.  We saw a lot of bluegills and bass plus a few pike after moving for the 3rd time.  Fish were very finicky and wouldn't bite.  I finally dropped a #16 marmooska with a single wiggler down the hole and started catching fish.  We had to leave around 3:00.  I'm told the bite is late afternoon, but don't know for sure.  There is a ton of snow out there.  A few guys drove, but most pulled out from shore.  Watched a couple of guys get stuck 50 yards out, so we decided to walk.  Tried out my buddies new 3 man frabill.  It's pretty nice - lots of room.  However, dragging it 300 yds through 2 to 3 foot of snow wasn't a lot of fun.
