What is everyone using for bait on tipups to target salmon?[/quoteThey eat anything small micro suckers fatheads shiners icicles more about finding a couple then the bait they are all stocked
Are you still able to get a 4 wheeler onto the ice at Vets Park???
Went yesterday out of Silver Bay. Shoreline was holding but you could tell that pressure ridge along shore was loosening and thinning. I measured 9-15" of ice from O'dell islands north the the pressure ridge coming off of stark point (extending completely across the lake to lamb shanty - really gross looking, no attempt to even cross on foot). Every hole i drilled, ~25 of them, was honeycombed (candied) Ice came up in smaller chunks while drilling, there were noticeable weep holes and you noticed drainage/separation some cracks. The fat lady will be singing anytime now.
Thanks Zach. how was the bite? I’m ready for some big Striped Bass😎
Im very excited for Striper though. I will definitely be taking you up on the offer to join . Have never caught a striper larger than a schoolie so i'm pumped to feel the fight.
Hope your ready to catch a couple 50's this year off block.
That's over 40"?? Have to let it go now lol. Whole season may shut down next year I was reading.. Politics for another thread !
Zach that is insane to go out there in a bass boat. One night I was drifting past an capsized boat over and over and didnt see it until morning...dangerous out there. The bass are big though.
Nice fish! Hudson?
Had my islands wrong. Confused Block and Fishers. I would NOT make the run to block in a bass boat. Fishers island was were we ran around since we had a good window of low wind conditions.
You don't have to even go that far for 50" plus stripers right Jon, you killed it last season off Block while I was staying a lot closer with the usual suspects...
The program you guys are on Ken is legendary and the best thing is I am 100% certain no boat can do what you guys do with those hige bass...because I tried, and tried, and tried some more. Every night I couldnt make it to the island and boy was I humbled. One of you will get a 60lber there. I keep telling phil to ditch the braid...Isn’t it great Ken to out fish Jon on the ice and the salt?! :-)I may ditch the braid this year to see what happens. There is definitely a 60#+ there.
I dont recall breaking any hooks last year Phil!Then you’re not fishing in the right spot!I didn’t break any hooks last year though. Owner hooks are holding up so far.
