Magic update
« on: Jan 17, 2010, 09:33 AM »
Well, I made it to Magic on Sat. Fishing was slow, nobody was catching fish like they have been. Talked to some locals and they said it was real slow. We did catch a couple of small trout, and small perch. The ice is about 14". The locals are real nice to talk to with some great info. But others like to ride their snowmobiles right through your spread like you weren't even there. Was not worth saying anything to them, cause there was LOT'S of alcohol involved. Cannot wait to go back again, hopefully the fishing will be better, and I will have dried minnows.

We have been doing pretty well at Magic and did so again last weekend. 3 of us caught 40 or so trout and 20 nice perch. We have been about 3 up from 40 feet.

I won't say exactly where but find the deeper water. Spikes have been getting the party started, then we have been switching to eyeballs.

Good luck!!!
