I have been out to Shagawa a couple of times now in the last week and have found it to be a slow start so far. Caught 1 small walleye the first night, got a better one up to the hole the next night( It got off), and had a few other bites. Put my spear house out yesterday and did not see anything today. That is fishing, I guess. Will be out again tomorrow.

Take Care,

Justin

Justin, what's the ice thickness where you were? And, um, where were you? I'm debating between Birch tomorrow or Sandy Point on Shag.

I was out on sandy point. There was about 5" of ice or so. I am thinking about going out again tonight, but I have a bad cold I may stay home and nurse it. Went out spearing this morning, but didnt see anything. Might head to Vermillion tomorrow. Stfcatfish, how did you do today?

Take Care,

Justin

I went shooting with the camera instead. Bagged a 13-point buck at 30 yards and a gray jay, but no fish! grin.gif

Let us know how V goes, and good luck. cool.gif

Now I am getting mad at those dang fish!! I saw 1 northern get speared this week and it wasn't in my house. I haven't seen a fish in my spear house yet. Walleye bite still slow on shag, although I finally caught an eater sized one and missed a good one last night. Was on Vermillion this week and just as slow there. I caught one eye about 9:30 am there and nothing after that. Heading to Lake of the Woods Sun. Hopefully I will finally have a fish dinner yet! cool.gif

      There’s critters out and about.  Get yourself some cellular trail cams and you’ll see.

      It wouldn't be the first time I've heard the USS Skunked Again breaking ice! I left this morning, the rain really did a number to the ice. I'll bet the Partridge River will be open by the weekend.

      My yard is pretty open, but narrow. I think I'll be fine with reception in the areas I'm thinking. I try to keep the hill somewhat natural, but my wife wants to see the lake better. The video's I've watched, they have topped the trees and mounted the dish. I would this the swaying would affect the signal. Does Starlink help you with using WiFi for calling? My T-Mobile service sux at the cabin. Did you bury your cable?

      I'm on the wide part of the channel going in to Black Bay. We won't see Paul B. For years.

      Welcome back. Wow it's been since 2018 it looks like. Did you ever "I'm tightening up my footprint and want to build on my Bozeman lot on the Gallatin"?  😏

      You're probably right. This isn't official since I've already lost, but I'll make my supplemental guess for May 6th since it's still open. 😄   As long as I can snake my way along the shore and/or plow through some dark ice on the 8th, I'll be happy. I love aluminum boats!

      For all of my "problems" with getting a clear signal it's worth it. I can spend more time at the lake because I can work during the day and play or get things done at night. Toss in that I can record and watch a football/hockey/basketball game when I'm done at the end of the day....priceless.   Like your place, our property is more natural and I was worried about having to cut down a bunch of trees. I like that people have to get up close to see our place from the lake through the trees. Luckily I didn't have to do much to get enough a signal that works for me. If I needed to be on video calls, I probably would run the dish down to the shore to get a better view of the sky.   BTW - the main problem with mounting the dish on a tree is that the tree still has a canopy that will block the signal. The best option would be to top a tree and then mount it on the clear-cut top.
