Hopefully I'll be headed up for sunday afternoon. Never fished up there before, So I dont really know where to go. I heard the independance bridge was a place to start. I bought a gander mountian set-up w/ 6lb line and a few jigging spoons. I heard also a stinger is a must. I also have a question: Is it poss. to catch perch in this area of the river? Like I said, never fished up there so any place to catch fish is a good place.
and as far as tip ups..you can use them..you just have to forget anything you've ever known about tip up fishing..we did ok last year using a huge weight a 2 foot leader with a floating crawler harness and fake worms. lol. wasnt worth the trouble though. lol.
What? Fake worms? Tip-Ups? Those two words don't go together! I guess your right. Yeah, I dunno. My dad's got some half &%^% plans for tomorrow. I am use to the local lakes around here near Stockbridge and know where to go when I want to catch fish. It's hard to make all these plans, head out and actually catch some fish but then again I ain't gonna catch any walleye in Joslin Lake! So, I guess one of the guys is talking about Linwood exit or something like that. Something like 8 miles out. I am bringing my snowmobiles to make transportation a little easier. Just gonna wing it I guess!
Cool, thanks for the advice. But hey, summer tackle will actually work from time to time! I caught a bass last night when I set a Jitterbug in the auger hole! Ok, just kidding about that but thanks again for the advice. Oh, BTW, What kinda thickness is the ice 8 miles out? I just can't imagine riding my snowmobile 8 miles out across a lake. Around here, you would be lucky to mark 1 mile across a lake on a tripometer.
