Just wanted to hear what the status of the bite has been for anyone out there. So let it fly if you don't mind, I don't even want to know where! Is anyone having multiple eye days? Has anyone checked stomach content and identified anything in there? I have iced two, lost one and neither had a thing in their stomach, not even soup! All were hooked on small panfish jig with waxie while crushing gills. Gill action would slow and a mark would fly up and peck the spring bobber like a gill but they weren't, none of these fish were on the same day.
I know for eyes everyone says to use vibees, pimples, or raps. How the heck do you guys work a vibee to catch an eye? I have fished them countless times and only ever caught one crappie. Fish look at them, I slow down presentation so not to spook them, fish linger with no action, then I end up going to a jig and knocking the panfish the vibee attracted. Suggestions please? Maybe I should give the vibees away!
I'm just trying to figure walleye out a bit more this year. Anyone know why no one fishes just south of the causeway? I'll be out there a bunch this month so i'll figure something out. I'll let you guys know what I learn.
Thanks.
