Not turned on yet, but if you fish all day you will catch some. Post the pics and it appears they are biting but they are not.

2 of us caught well over both of our limits in a few hours.

I've even had rookies in there do well...go figure....

Maybe your holding your rod backwards....

I could help you if you were so inclined...

Hey ck, you interested in joining up one of these days? I pretty much only have sundays open, I work at 1 but it's a long trip up from the cities for only a morning of fishing!

Posted

Sure...just say when!

Posted

Fishing is slower than a month ago but I am still able to get my limit on crappies and a few tullies, last time out there I lost a huge tullie on my green frosty, so if anyone catches a big tullie with a green frosty in its mouth mail it back to me j/k.

so true...the tullies were on fire the 1st 2 weeks of Feb...it's the earliest I've hammered them ,but now it's a tougher bite.

Hopefully with these 40 degree temps we should see those mayfly larva getting gorged on & ergo a stronger more aggresive bite.

Was out yesterday and Tullies are biting better then ever but crappies are slooooowwww. 1 crappie in 6 hours graphed plenty but not biting.

Posted

3 of us were out Tues. AM and did fairly well. Around 35 fish, kept just under 20...of which 2 were +12" perch ( one guy just had to fish the bottom!!). No real monsters...just very nice 11 and 12-inchers. Light line, plain hook (glow white, or red )...the smaller ones hit pretty hard...bigger ones would just "lean on it".

Fishin has been good!

Posted

You just have to stay away from the big groups and watch a few holes only, thats what i do and i have plenty of luck at catching fish.

Posted

Sounds like i better get over there before it's over!

Small baits, thin line, spring bobber, and mobility -- you will catch them!

Posted

Posted

Leave them whole...soak in a salt brine for 24 hours then smoke.

Posted

I'm new to the lake, what areas do you target when looking for Tulees?

Posted

How is the bite for the tullies, perch, bluegills, and crappies?

Posted

FISHED BILL HORN BAY THIS PAST WEEKEND. FISHING WAS SLOW FOR ME.

WHAT CAN I DO TO UP MY ODDS?

Posted

Drop down to the smallest fiska you can find and lop on 1 euro then work a lift.Don't pound.

Posted

How much longer will the tulibees and crappies be biting and more importantly how much longer will the ice be strong enough for driving out?

I'm from the cities, might want to come up at the end of this coming week or next weekend.

How are the landings to BSL?

And what about lodging options in town or close to town?

I looked online and not many places to stay...maybe in McGregor?

Thanks

Posted

there is a motel close to the lake cannot remember the name right now, but ice was plenty thick yesterday, kinda spooky at the end of the day when we left the lake,(landing from the bar) was all slushed up. My group was thinking about going next weekend but I doubt it now after seeing the landing and these warm temps.

Leave them whole...soak in a salt brine for 24 hours then smoke.

We pounded 26 in 2 hours on Sunday.The flasher was lit up.

You just have to be there when they want to feed.You also need to be where they are at.

A few of my old spots are not paying out like they used too. We can not fish memories.

      🤣 not near as shiny and spendy as that livescope toy. Thats kinda like bling ain't it? besides i'm on a paultry union pension  🫣

      I mean to catch pike you just need a shiny object...

      Just another "Words matter"   Voting on school levy. This was posted on the School "education district" building door.  We had a nice cold walk all the way around the building! The arrow was added, after we educated them! 😒
    • Wanderer
      Nope!  But it’s more funner!
    • smurfy
      I don't need no livescope to catch fish....🤔🤪  It's all in how ya wiggle the worm!😜 Just sayin  🤣

      Obviously this is more of a hot topic due to forward facing sonar. With that being said, I know people who have pulled crappies out of basins 40+ deep since the fl-8 and zercom flashers came out. That's over 30 years ago. I do think there's a push to ban these in MN and I could see them doing it here. They'll have to pay my livescope from my cold dead hands 😆 on days I can't catch a walleye jigging or rigging it's nice to turn it on and throw corks at individual fish

      It wasn't just you, I was fishing west of you about an hour on Monday. Fished 8am-4pm, no fish, two keeper walleye and one small one from 4pm-630pm. Marked a lot of fish, they would come up to a jig and swim away. They were skittish to the dead stick too

      I wonder like divers, if we let them decompress every 10' for 1/2hr. If that would help?  🤔  It would slow the bite down a bit!  🤭

      That was a better study compared to last winter when they setup the vertical tube nets and tried to release exhausted fish from being studied and expected them to be able to swim straight down a 3' hoop net.     That lake's crappie population from this latest video was pretty deep at 40-50', and no doubt from those depths that is barotrauma for most.  That is deeper than most crappie holes but certainly how some are. However from helping give fish a good release from the 35' and less range and tracking them with live sonar most of them swim at a shallow angle back to the depths and I watch them rejoin the school and be active.  Uncut Angling's video helped counter some of the initial narrow findings.

      If you fished with me more often, you'd never have to make this statement...   38" of ice - love it. I'm really going to have to dig around for my auger extension. I don't think that I've needed it in over a decade.   Too bad nobody has a locomotive chugging across the ice to do some logging, like the good old days.
