7th Annual Spearing Get To Gator....Lake Winnie Area...Dec 18th & 19th

[Laska]

U use a dbl sucker now, harnes to another harness, but alot of the time I just use my decoys... Does a realistic sucker decoy count as cheating then? or is that just borderline...

[Laska]

So I talked to dixons tonight, they are catching bucketfull amounts of bluegills, and the northerns are coming in steady and they have had quite a few 10-14pound fish come thru and there will be a guy out their from dixons that will help us pick out spots.

straight from the dixons resort HSOforum... Just to let you know what we are staying in.

This 3 bedroom manufactured home is spacious and has a large kitchen with a microwave, 2 coffee makers and 2 toasters. Its great for the bigger fishing groups with 8 single beds and 2 sleeper sofa's. The bathroom has a tub and shower. Air conditioning and all the comforts. This cabin is fully winterized and is 200 yards from the lake.

The lake their talking about is Dixon's Lake not 3rd river where we are fishing just wanted to clarify that....

[Gordie]

Things are looking better for me as well I'm probally going to be working the day shift on friday so I may be up very early sat morning or possibly friday night. I will let you know soon as I do..

[terrible_fisherman]

I am one of the guys in the pics on their HSOforum. My cousin and I went up there this year for the first time. I got a 10.5lb fish and my cousin got a 9.5 lb fish. The biggest both of us have ever taken out of a lake to date. I also stuck some hammer handles as well and saw a few 5-8 lbers that I let swim through. Lots of big perch and sunfish in the hole too. The water is not super clear though. Kinda murky so I would bring taters or beans to through down to clear it up a little bit. I was in about ten feet and I could not see the bottom without the beans being down. The pike were easy to see though as they were coming in a few feet up.

If we get enough ice by this weekend to drive a truck on I will be going up again on Friday afternoon or Saturday early morning. It was a fun place to stay and the people running Dixon's were very friendly. They even pulled the truck out when it got stuck on a logging trail.

[Laska]

Sounds like it was alot of fun, if you come up their your more than welcome to stop by our cabin. Sounds like there is big fish all over the place up there, were you fishing near the clay banks at all?

[bassNspear]

so from the way i read this, we are unable to drive trucks on lake? Which is fine, ill have the wheeler with me anyways, but have had emails about it if we are able to drive trucks

[Laska]

we will find that out first hand when we get out there...

[glenn57]

How many kids will be going to the GTG?? 18 & under

my grandson........hes 15. sorry been our for a week! it did include spearing!

[glenn57]

Just wondering how many guys are bringing atv's up there sounds like we have a journey to get to the good spots....

i will be bringing mine with a 2 place snowmobile trailer. was in area this past weekend and little snow on ice.

[glenn57]

so now i am confused, we fishin dixon or the 3rd river? dont matter to me! again i will bring fish batter and flour and other goodies. i also have a GPS and winnie lake map but from what i hear the 3rd river doesnt change much. will look at map tonite.

[Laska]

[bassNspear]

elwood, are you going to be able to make it?

[Gordie]

elwood, are you going to be able to make it?

all depends on how work lays out right now I might be working Friday the day shift so I could come up Friday night but if I cant work the day deal it'll be sunday ..maybe

[Laska]

do I need to call your boss elwood?

[terrible_fisherman]

I am not sure where the claybanks is at all. We were about 1.5 miles out from the winter access.

They told me that they expect trucks to be able to go out by this weekend with all the cold weather. There was not too much snow on the ice so I am guessing ice is forming pretty quick.

[Gordie]

do I need to call your boss elwood?

you talked with him last night

[Laska]

well then Ill see you friday night!!

[Laska]

Hey if you have a a picture of the nord lord trohpy send it to me, I want to carve a big one like 2ft tall! Just for sits n giggles...
