Finally got into some. Great day to end the season
« on: Mar 24, 2021, 08:35 AM »
Thanks to everyone's tips and feedback. Explored a new area of the lake with a known inlet. Gave myself a 30 min window to get flags or I was moving.
Took 15 mins and never had to move after that. Non stop action. Caught only my target species wp, and one small yp. No bass no picks. It was great.  Chased flags and jigged a few. Iced 10 wp released 2 small ones. Kept 8 total. Lost 5 more on traps that I'm certain were WP.  Classic chew and screws. Lost a few on jigs tipped with smelt heads. Jig bite was good they were very aggressive.  Thanks again for all the tips and feedback.

There ya go when the weather stays stable, persistence and beliefe in ones self is an asset,  sometimes we get to wrapped up in the catching,  and over anaylize things, fish are cold blooded simple creatures,  but they have the need to be safe, eat and reproduce, they feed for short periods  of times and rest for longer ones, we, as humans need to keep that in mind and not pressure ourselves or worry about it too much, fish when we can, eventually the wheels of success turn in our  favor.. yesterday it was your turn YOU EARNED IT..

Way to keep hunting and find them Wayne - great way to finish up strong.  Best way to put a season to rest.

Agreed . Ending on a skunk is the worst. Long time to ice in but I am already planning.

Nice haul Wayne. Good way to go out. The last day is always bittersweet.
I'm gonna try and squeak out one more morning on the big lake this weekend.

Drive by broads today was blackish and on it's way out. Pm me I can send you a pic of the area. As if today. I think you'll be ok especially if your areas dont get the majority of sun. I walked onto my spot yesterday without issue. I think you can Make it happen if you access from the right angle sun wise.
