Where is everyone

Neigbor_Guy,

I saw that fish house on Burntside last Monday morning. Trout fishing was slow for us too. We were shut out Sat and Sun on the N Arm. I tried the West end on Monday. It was still a fun weekend.

Well that stinks Sham.

I feel your pain(not back ) about spearing. I haven't been in my perm house for 2 weeks now. I have to head for IA this afternoon. This working is really getting in the way of things.

Looks like I might have a little break in the action from work and can get back out to the spear shack. The seat in my truck is really comfortable but I'd much rather sit on my old hard spearing chair.

You don't have a really comfortable seat like in your truck in your spear house, I'm shocked

[MJ1657]

If they didn't cost $1000 I would have one!!

[MJ1657]

I got my house moved and set back down on the ice. Hopefully get done working early enough to get a little time in the seat.

[Neighbor_guy]

Did you find a good spot???

[Neighbor_guy]

I plan to get the hard side house on the water someplace tomorrow. Not sure where, but hopefully I end up on the water a supposed to in it.

[MJ1657]

I got a little tighter to the weed line.

Started the day with Alex over on green. Sat with him a few hrs, no fish, no flags.

Moved over one lake to the east. Seen 3 in the first 20min. Or it could've been the same youngster 3 different times. The lake is doing a lot of talking over here though. Loud hard banging and cracking. Makes for very skittish fishes

[MJ1657]

I had my first double of the season. One was staring at my sucker when out of nowhere another smacked my green flipper decoy. Kind of fun.

Lunch at my house tomorrow if anyone's around.

[MJ1657]

That was fun. 1 hour in the shack and had 5 different fish come in including a double and a big one. One of the pike hung in the hole almost the whole time. Sucker minnow was hit twice and my artificial 4 times.

[mrklean]

So the move was a good one then MJ?

[MJ1657]

Not real sure what the deal was. I only moved about 20 feet but I like the new spot.

I placed 2nd in the southern lakes fishing contest today, 11.66 #, 14.31 was first

place. A little money to buy more decoys It came in fast and hard to the 8" orange and copper spoon with a minnow head on. I sometimes wonder what these fish won't hit. Very dirty water with carp coming though at sunrise.

[MJ1657]

Nice work Hawkeye.

[MJ1657]

Two course meal on the ice today.

[Neighbor_guy]

Nice!!! Woulda liked to be there. I need to get these migraines under control.

How's the fishing over there today???

[MJ1657]

Not as good as yesterday but OK. I heard a rumor that the green house to the west of me had a double.

[hawkeye43]

What a great weekend, Thank you New England

[hillbilly...]

I hear you on that Mj i was out Saturday with the boy and another guy we went 15' apart i had 6 fish in my hole and they only seen 2 and bass crappies and a walleye as to where i didnt see anyother fish

[tca12]

Tried Turtle Lake in Shoreview today. The water was plenty clear, clear enough to see one sunfish in 4 1/2 hours. Plenty of old marked holes scattered around but didn't see more than a few actual spear shacks. Didn't see any shrimp or wieners either!

I'm just living the dream through you guys lately. Haven't been on the ice in weeks except quick visits to my brothers shack. Today we're headed to Malmo to visit a relative on hospice. Otherwise all other focus has been on work and house things. You guys are having ALOT more fun!!!

I always think about making Sunday's lunch though. I could say it would make a good tie in with a stop at Menards for some more house stuff.
