I got the pass from the wife to leave the in-laws place up by Togo for one day next weekend. I heard the bite on Winnie is hit or miss. Looking at the map from the Togo area it doesn't appear that Red is much farther, if any compared to going to Winnie. If you were me what lake would you hit? Are they still going pretty good at Red? Thoughts would be appreciated.

I would definetely go to Red over winnie. What species are you targeting?

Going after Walleyes

try beef heart

Posted

Webbyboy, I was in Canada once and ran into some fishermen who gave us some beef heart to put on our jigs. Worked great. Where did you hear of it?

Posted

That's all he uses in Canada is jigs and beef heart. It's cheap and hardy!

Posted

For walleye? Or for anything?

Posted

Primarily walleye but we have caught northerns, too. Just cut in small strips and fish it w/ a jig. No problem getting atleast a half dozen or more on one piece because it is so tough.

Beef heart is the way to go. I actually picked it up from a few lads that were in Canada that I ran into in my travels. Benfishin is right, very hardy and cheap. Use it on the tip of the jig.... Use it for "eyes" or for the big pike. Live bait is for rookies..... Hey Benfishin, got any more passes from the wife lately?

Who needs passes?

I bet if you cut it into just the right type of strips it would look almost exactly like reddish leeches. That sounds like a great idea. Not sure it's any more of a challenge to use bloody parts of a cow than it is to use a leech, so I'm not sure how valid the "live bait is for wimps" comment is when the "artificial" in use is actually an animal part. Furthermore, using "artificial" baits like Berkeley Gulp and PowerBait is hardly the same as "artificial" baits from years ago. The flavor, texture, and scent on these "artificial" baits are all almost the same as live bait nowadays....

      My son got paid back for a good deed he did several years ago. He found a couple of expensive items at a boat ramp and called me asking what he should do.   I told him to bring them home because I was afraid if someone else found them, they might keep them. It was winter and nobody was around. This was when Facebook wasn't really popular yet, I was on several sites like this. First thing we did was make a big sign and posted it at the boat launch, then I posted it on all the forums I was on. Long story short, we never found the owner, but we sure tried. I know to this day, if either one of us found something, we'd do our best to get it back to the rightful owner.

      Yes, for sure.     A few years back, and unbeknownst to me, a piece of trim came off my sled while traveling over the lake.  A fellow sledder and complete stranger found the piece and followed my tracks all the way back to my cabin to return the lost item.  Couldn't thank him enough.  His kindness will never be forgotten and is something to which I aspire.

      Sweet!!👍 there are still good people out there!
    • CigarGuy
      We got the auger back! The person who found it didn't want me to mention his name, we can't thank him enough! Still good, honest people around. He called Spring Bay Resort and asked if they heard of anyone losing an auger and they sent him a screenshot of my post. So, thanks to Dayis and Steve at Spring Bay Resort for that! Thanks again everyone for getting the auger back to us!

      Who’s been out? I got hit with the flu and am still recovering. 
    • CigarGuy
      That's what they're going to do. I always read these posts and wondered how people could lose or forget stuff, well it happens!
    • Wanderer
      Dang….  I know it’s your son, so kinda different, but I’d be expecting a replacement from those who lost it.  The group could each put in and wouldn’t hit one or another too bad.   But that’s just an old man’s thoughts….💭    Good luck.

      So my son and buddies were out this morning fishing between Wakemup and H.O.L. Bays (probably between Metza's pt and Schmidt Island), so they had to cross the snowmobile trail to The Landing. Well,  MY Strikemaster 24 volt auger fell off the back of my sled.  They didn't realize it until they got back. If anyone found it, would be nice to get back...please and thank you. Good news is they had the battery in their pocket..... Dip $hits😡
