Water clarity not as good as last on the lake I am on, but the action is good tho

My 11 year old son got his first today!! Highlight of my year.

[Meat-Run]

was up on Leech the 16th and 17th and did very well, saw a ton of huge walleyes and about 500+ tubibees next to a steep drop off near sand. The pike are full of tulibees as there still laying there eggs.

Saw some fish this year.

So far I have only taken one.

So small I didn't even spear it - it got stuck between the tines.

Tasted mighty fine though.

Gonna get some for the pickle jar this weekend.

The pike have been really skitish this year.

got my first today have been seeing them but not a ton of size happy to finally get one morning seems to be the best times so far

Out this morning and didnt see any. Out lat weekend and seen 6 with one being close to seven. He was nervous and came into the sucker but my son was nervous and didnt think he had the shot and the pike left quickly. Fisrt outing was during the snow storm a couple of weeks ago and didnt see any.

I have been seeing quite a few, all pretty small. They sure taste good though.

This has been the worst year I've ever had. I haven't bee seeing a thing? I'm beginning to wonder if the clear coat on the decoys is actually Pike repellent?

I always said I'd trade in all the fish I see in a year for one trophy, maybe this is my year.

I have seen enough.. just that every one I have seen has been so skittish that they don't even get close to the hole before getting spooked.

Saw a 5lb bass yesterday and it wasn't getting no where near the decoy. Usually they are all over them.

All the fish I have seen are fat though. I don't think they are too hungry this year.

everytime I plan on going something else seems to get in the way of it bvut the times ive been out Ive done well except for friday on green lake didnt see a thing and the spot I was in wasnt the greatest spot.

[BOUNCED]

Ever check the clarity on your lake Elwood?

[Gordie]

dirty 5-6 ft clarity is what I was told by a guy spearing ut there but I havent confirmed this myself

So it's cleared up

[Gordie]

thats what it was like when I started spearing the lake it was dirty and you couldnt see bottom at 7 ft but I speared alot of pike as they werent skiddish at all

[MJ1657]

I have not had much luck the last two days. Had two come through but they were hugging the bottom and not slowing down.

I'm going to switch to some tip ups tomorrow.

I have noticed the fish to be extremely skittish and not coming in very well this year so far.

The lake I spear on is normally crystal clear and this year it really clouded up for some reason. Been seeing a lot of variety for fish. Saw one pike in the low 30"s and lots of hammer handles. Catching lots of bass on the jig stick but the dang walleye will not eat for us! AWH and I were out yesterday and as soon I got the live deke down, about 24-25" eye came in to ivestigate which was cool.

Overall very happy with the start

I've been seeing a fair number of smaller pike. Today in the rain I saw the biggest carp of my life swim by. Also got a 35 inch 11 pound pike before all the water rushing into my hole chased me off the lake.
