Another slow weekend. Fished the tourney yesterday. No flags until right at 4 then I had 4 flags in 30 minutes. No fish though, shouldn't have tried to rig my bait a new way like that. Oh well, won't do it again. Fished today from 12-5 in the same area I got the flags Saturday and got nothing. Think I might give up on Chassel and move on to somewhere else.

Did you hear what the winning fish was for the tourney?

acrawfor · « **Reply #2 on:** Jan 31, 2010, 08:25 PM »

I only seen/heard of 3 pike caught. The one I seen didn't even look legal. I heard a group talking saying they caught a 21" and 25" inch. They sad they thought they were in the lead with the 25" one. Its said if a fish hardly worth keeping won that.

Yes there were only 3 fish caught. The winning fish was around 28in and the 2nd and 3rd ones were 25in. I was the one who got 3rd place in the tourney. I was VERY surprised i got 3rd with this fish, much less even placed. I even thought about releasing it after i caught it.

Ya, unless it was hefty 25" its almost not worth keeping. Thats amazing that a 28" pike won. Did you hear if there were any eyes even caught? From what I hear everyone has been having a hard time catching fish out there.

There were no eyes caught by any of the guys who were in the tournament so i believe they just rolled that money over to next years tourney.

Sounds like that tourney was a waste of money. good thing i didn't enter

I didn't catch anything but at least it gave me an excuse to fish for 8 hours. Was worth the $10 I think

Me and some friends fished the tournament and we caught a 22inch pike and a 46 inch sturgeon. I would put up a pic but i haven't figured that out yet. Got a few other flags but nobody home.

Would've been nice to catch something. At least everyone wasn't as bored as me

Whats the word guys? Still slow?

Wasn't there a tourney this weekend?

Anyone fishing for walleyes and catching any out there? Just targetted walleyes for the first time this past weekend and it was quite a bit of fun. Might try it out here again if they are catching some.

One eye in the last three trips. Real slow, some of the locals I know have all but given up this year. Not to say on any given day u can go out and get into some fish, just gotta keep after em. good luck

acrawfor · « **Reply #15 on:** Feb 19, 2010, 09:51 PM »

How are the pike hitting? Anyone even still trying?

63rfisher · « **Reply #16 on:** Feb 20, 2010, 07:49 PM »

We've been doin alright on pike. Lots small ones in the last few weeks with about 4 somewhere around 10 pounds. Live bait is workin much better than dead right now. I fish out on the lake though, not the bay.

You fish the narrows? or between the humps and the narrows?

63rfisher · « **Reply #18 on:** Feb 21, 2010, 12:27 AM »

I'm not exacty sure what you mean by the narrows. But we don't fish the humps. We don't cross the lake very often at all.

How's the ice doing up there? Been down state on spring break and the ice fishing is about done down here. Few die hards (or crazies

) left maybe but thats about it.

bigmike7272 · « **Reply #20 on:** Mar 12, 2010, 09:11 AM »

not sure about the ice on portage, but the ice here on keweenaw bay is about done for

sunup · « **Reply #21 on:** Mar 12, 2010, 09:18 AM »

3' of ice/frozen slush on Chassell bay. I saw machines going out to the humps yesterday. An inch or two of water on top in places and slippery.

acrawfor · « **Reply #22 on:** Mar 16, 2010, 12:15 PM »

How's the ice holding up. Thinking about going for crappie today, but not sure. Might just put the ice gear away and go after some trout instead.

acrawfor · « **Reply #23 on:** Mar 16, 2010, 10:05 PM »

Never mind. Put the ice gear in storage for the summer. Went for some rainbows instead. Caught an 11 inch and lost about an 8 inch.
