Title: First day out this year
Post by: eyeflyer on Jan 02, 2023, 07:43 PM

Started this years fishing off with a good day. Got some perch, rainbows and one tiger. Bite was pretty steady until about 1:30 and then really slowed up. When the fish were around a dropper setup off a small jigging rap was working really well, had that setup going in both holes. Got a new remote for the eyoyo camera that is really nice, few more shacks moved into our area over the holidays.

Nice!  Thanks for the report.  Good mix of species for sure.

I'll post my Gull Lake report which is from XMas eve....I'm tardy.  Spent the last 7 days in row at Pigeon lake.  What a tough lake!!  I did find some new spots.  Caught walleye, one small perch and zero whitefish.  Oh and lost an estimated 12 lb pike.   So not all bad but not an easy lake by any stretch.  Ice is anywhere from 24 inches up to 28-30 inches.
Weather has been sooooo good since and including the 24th.
