<BR>We're heading up to Gibbins on Fri. Any advice on techniques or what to bring would be great!! It'll be our first time with Gibbins. Thanks guys

kingr,<P>Just got back from Gibbins last night. The house caught around over a 100 walleyes - saugers between four guys within two days. Keep an eye on marks suspended around 15 feet on your vexilar as my father caught a nice 26 incher suspended. Otherwise there wasn't any hot bait we caught walleyes on everything we threw at em and every kind of minnow! Our group also had another house and they had the same turnout. Gook luck, you guys should have a good time!

We caught walleyes all day and night! It got a bit slower at night and you have to pull up your lines 3 feet off the bottom to keep away from eelpout! Bring paper plates and cups they have forks, spoons, pans and bowls, cookie sheets and pizza cutters as the oven works. We brought all are porables and they never left the truck. But, fishing is fishing and I would bring it. Paper towels and TP where there and it wasn't even the cheap stuff.<p>[This message has been edited by joneshat11 (edited 01-20-2004).]

Heading to gibons on friday as well. Is it worth it to bring my portable as well. Do they move off the depths the houses are at midday? (went to winnie last year and the portable was huge, they bit in the house in the morning and at dusk but outside of that you needed to be deeper)Did you guys catch everything in the house? First time up to lake of the woods and I pretty jacked up<BR>thanks<P>------------------<BR>To be the man you have to beat the man....Wooooooooo

If you are not catching fishy they will move you. But other than that you stay put...

      Made a quick trip before the weekend rush on Vermilion.  Ice was in very good condition.  Didn't see any slush or water on any of the roads out from McKinley Park.  There are plowed roads on both side of the staked snowmobile trail coming out from the landing.  The road to the left goes out toward Birch Island, and there is a spur road going to the left (west) a couple hundred yards out.  The road on the right side goes out toward Ely Island.  There is a short spur road going east about half mile out.   The water came up under my fish house about another 1½ inches when I drilled my holes.  Looks like I will be going back up early next week to block my house up higher.  The small amount of new snow is really drifting up and adding weight.  You may get water on the ice, or find slush if you drill holes in new areas.  There is about 15% bare ice where the wind has blown it off.  Many of the drifts are very high and hard, so you could get stuck on them.   Fishing was average.  Best bites were from 9-10am and 11-1230 when I quit.  Biggest walleyes was only 16¼", then the next biggest was 13.75".  Reporting lengths in quarter inches because I can't seem to find any big walleyes.   Good luck fishing, be careful driving around, and be courteous to others.
