Need A little Help!


SCONASOTAN

Recommended Posts

I have fished Red Several times now in open water and on the ice. A group and I will be coming up the first weekend of march for a little Red with a little LOW to go with it. What are some good places to start drilling holes? Depth and distance out from Hillmans? Depth and distance out from JR's?

How is the walleye bite usually at this time? I realize its out of season, just wondering? Are they at the same depths as Crappies or are they concentrated at different depths?

If I could make an additional trip should a guy come up mid-Feb. or mid March? Not a meat hunter,just a fisherman.

thanks for any help.

Tough to say year to year where the crappies will show up so it's best to check reports closer to when your trip is. Personally I would go out of Hillman's road about as far as you can and venture a bit north in 14'.

I would make the trip in February for the walleyes but that's just me.

Last year my dad was catching them out deep, 13-14 fow. They did pretty good on crappies too. If I remember correctly, it was something like 4-5 miles out. Stop in at the place your going out of and I'm sure they give you the up to date.

      I think electric items have their places, I just don't think large commercial jobs are going to be able to work well with them. Can't see a logging crew out in the woods all day changing batteries!

      I agree on the choices.   I didn't mean to say that a battery auger was better or greener or whatever.  I could care less about that.   It just seems that "most" ice anglers have made a switch to a battery auger in recent years.  That's all I was saying.  I know about a dozen people who regularly ice fish and they all have battery augers now.  I bet if you conducted a survey of all ice anglers, the majority would answer that they use a battery powered auger.

      Best weed eater I've ever run with great longevity is Echo, I'd check them out

      Hey government,  Just give us choices. I don’t care what people use as long as as it works for you. I’m needing a new weed eater. Plan on a Stihl FS 40 easy start. I’m done with the cheaper brands. Just don’t last long enough.  Probably true with the Stormy Daniels of the world as well. Cheaper don’t last long enough 🤭

      If you turn on a movie they survive the 20min ride just fine. After many controlled experiments, I've found that they survive much better if you show "Finding Nemo" instead of "Jaws."
