Jan 10th this past weekend?
« on: Jan 12, 2004, 10:38 AM »
Did anyone go out this past weekend? How did you all do? I was reading in the general chit chat about the full moon making it real slow for the fishies. I found it very slow on Sunday. We went to Burnstick Lake. Didn't see too many other people catching lots either.

We went to Gull on Saturday.  We caught a couple whites, some perch and a few pike, including one that was 16lbs.  I would say it was an average day for us.  Other than the white fish, typically we have more action with them.

BTW, one of the guys I work with was on Burnstick with a few of his friends on Sunday as well.  They caught a few during the day but the best luck in the morning.  But all and all they it was slow too.  His name is Bruce C*****.  For all I know he might have been part of your group.

Went to Kinnaird, and slaughtered the perch, a limit of 12" & up, with 14", the biggest.  Took my one walleye out of their too, about 5 lbs.  I actually caught quite a few walleye while fishing exclusively for perch!!

Hey Bushbunny.  Long time no chat.

I am thinking of heading up to Jackson, Blackett and Kinnaird this weekend.  Sounds like the fishing is good.  Is there are lot of people out on the ice?  

I am going to try to come on from the South this time.  If you remember my posts from last year, I usually go to Touchwood and then across to Spencer or go out to Jackson from there.  I saw some directions on the board and I will give it a go.  

Cheers!

Spencer has been fantastic!!!  We were there last weekend, came home with our 2 walleyes, limits of perch(12+) & some jacks.  I thought that I would try Kinnaird this past weekend.  Some of the other guys went back to Spencer and slaughtered again!!

Where on burtstick were ya? I was there too, with two dogs and a green dodge. Were you there with mixed company, and a few kids? How did you make out? I think that you might have fished our holes as we were leaving. Were you guys in a  blue " yoda "? How many did you get?

Thanks Bushbunny!

So is Spencer better than Kinnaird/Jackson/Blackett right now?  It is a fair way to go, but I am quite anxious.  Going to Blackett would likely cut about an hour off the trip, so I am thinking. . .

How busy are those lakes right now?

Where on burtstick were ya?

On the same shore as the boat launch, east of it though.

Were you there with mixed company, and a few kids?

I was with Alpinehigh and Rog if that counts as kids.....ok so yes I was with a couple kids. ;D ;D

Were you guys in a  blue " yoda "?

Nope a charcoal Dakota Quad Cab.


How many did you get?

At least thirty or so, nothing big though. Last time we went we couldn't keep the jumbo's off the line.

Cheers,
