Dixon Lake
« on: Dec 30, 2011, 11:37 PM »
Heading to dixon tomorrow for a SERIOUS day of fishing. Anybody fish here before? I caught a behemoth smallmouth off the boat launch last summer, and my buddy has caught a few small walleye out of it too. Got some big suckers gonna set some tip ups and jig/deadstick some perch minnows for any panfish and etc. Hearing some other ppls opinions on the lake would be great. Ill be sure to update tommorow!

I prefer shiners over chubs when walleye fishing with clown colored jigs. Ill jig one rod and deadstick the other.
