So who is going to ring in the new year the right way?

What are your plans and what are you going to be fishing for?

 

We are going to go up to my Fiancées cabin on Long lake in Longville for new years it is going to be her and I my uncle her dad cousin and cousins girlfriend. Her dad has a four wheeler and me and my uncle are bringing our sleds.. We will be running and gunning in search of crappies.

Cant think of a better way to say hello to 2017 than that :boom:

Hey they were both warm long socks that works for me! :lol:

 

Bite wasn't the best either really had to work for them, fishing 21 fow they didn't like it unless your jig was at 15 feet then they would slowly come up off the bottom and hit it.

 

Overall it was a great trip never made it to a secret tiny lake I wanted to try from what I here kicks out 10-11 inch gills but I will have to try it someday. Got the ice fishing snowmobile some runtime I havn't ran the Jag (AKA The arm ripper ) for 3 years she works perfect still.

 

Had a mighty fine seafood steak new years dinner as well

We boarded Tango at Armstrong Kennels this weekend and he had a good time there as always. I picked him up and boy was he tired tossed a bumper around a couple times and went in and straight to his chair he went.

      Excuse my ignorance, but was is driving the bait prices? Usually the shortage is due to a late ice-out from the swamps and streams. This year should have been much better.

      I should probably learn to use the 6+ containers of lures I have collecting dust in my tackle box. We got on a decent crappie bite the last couple of evenings and I broke out some plastics.  I caught some crappies on them ,just need to build my confidence in using them! I did notice they didn't seem to hold on to them as long as minnows!

      Minnows are 50 cents each, and leeches are $50 a pound.

      Absolutely. I get full bars all-along the drive from Cook to The Landing, and out into Head O Lakes bay. I can't say that I've stared much at my phone signal anywhere else besides on my way to Black Bay. We still don't get much for service there because there are a lot of steep slopes with tall trees in the way. That was expected though. The tower is definitely providing better service to the area in general IMO.

      Any updates on this new tower? Has it helped AT and T customers throughout the lake get better service?

      Went in to Lucky 7 to get some crappie minnows today. All they had were crappie minnows and fatheads. She said to call in advance for the opener, couldn't say for sure if they'd have rainbows, shiners, etc for opener!
