I was at Echo on Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday this week. The bite was good for the first hour or two each day producing a few nice walleyes and a handful of perch as well as the odd tulibee. Everyday there were tons of pike swimming a few feet under us trying to steal our perch. I wouldnt be suprised if some were past the 40" mark. Otherwise the bite was on and off for the rest of the day after the morning bite. About 12-15 inches of ice and there have been plenty of trucks driving out on the west side behind the gas station and school.

Any reports from Pasqua? I was in surgery last Friday so I haven't been out every second day like I usually am.

Thanks mods you didn't even give me a chance this time.

Sounds like a good day Mr.Buckshot.

In the summer when the weather is permitting my neighbor and I at the lake will head out first thing 5am. Sure is a great surprise for our families when they wake up to walleye frying out on the deck.  On the good days when we can both catch a limit of good eaters we invite the other neighbours over for brunch and have a great morning fish fry.

Good day at pasqua today. Between 2 of us got 30 fish. 3 jumbos (13"+) and 1 eye of 2.5ish and a 2 pounder. Sat outside most of the day without using the flip thanks to the wife. She bought me the extreme ice armor suit and ultra gloves, toasty all day.

Was out on Echo on Sunday the 23rd.  slower day started with a couple tulibee, some small perch, a very small walleye, a very small pike, a broken rod, broken puppet minnow and a broken line with a glow and red dot PK flutterfish.....and then I caught these


The first one is my personal best 10.4lbs and the second is 6lbs both caught in the same hole about a half hour apart and both released.  Thanks to my showdown and 3/8 ounce glow with red dot PK flutterfish.  Turned out to be a GREAT DAY!http://www.iceshanty.com/ice_fishing/Smileys/default/grin.gif
