Definitely jealous of the walleye fillets. It's hard to beat beer-battered shore lunch coated walleye in the deep frier. Besides a few burbot I haven't caught much up here that I enjoy eating, maybe I just have to adjust my cooking methods. Drifter, you're weather makes Fairbanks look like the bannana belt. I went out without the shack this afternoon and thought -2F felt cold after four hours, I guess things could be worse. SeaDog1, I'm guessing the ice on the lake today was around 16". Not bad for an auger, but I'm still using a 24" spud. It's a good way to warm up, but kind of deturs me from moving around much.
