Smallie Posted February 5, 2003 Author Share Posted February 5, 2003 Well the boat touched open water for a few minutes. The lake was down 14 feet since last winter when I was out there.We couldn't get the boat to float off it was way to shallow. Temperatures were also at lovely 5 below zero with winds gusting up to 25mph. I stuck one fish off shore it felt good to stick a fish.We still had a good trip out there I will be checking on the water levels for march.

smallmouthking Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 We release 99% of the smallies we catch and that was over 800 last year. The smaller 12"er's are fabulous. We were able to Fish the mississippi well into January catching 4 pounders, not to mention walleyes too. If your into the soft water fishing there are many areas to fish on the river, from boat or shore. good fishin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne Ek Posted February 11, 2003 Share Posted February 11, 2003 Guy's!!! someone find smallie some open water for everyones mental health at Northeast. Every time I stop in for a morning cup of coffee this kid is bouncing of the walls to hit some open water. He's like a high strug pointer sitting in a dog crate right in the middle of a rooster pen.Please, find this guy some open water...By the way, if you in the area stop in at Northeast in the morning for a cup, if Kent is there then walk down to McDonalds and get the coffee, he makes the strongest coffee in the world...------------------WayneAgape Fishing Guideswww.agapefishingguides.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 Hang in ther Smallie. My wife is ready to send me south until I find an open lake. My kids don't think it's fun any more to have beanie-babies pitched at 'em on the end of a piece of yarn and have Dad yell "Fish On!" when they grab it. The dogs, however, might get a hoot out of me trolling one of the cats through the living room. ------------------<)/////><{RobertC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ice-man/vexilar-king Posted March 5, 2003 Share Posted March 5, 2003 A friend of mine went there this weekend and pounded the walleye’s. The only thing he complained about was that the smallies would hit it if you got down in the rocks. Sounds like it might be right up your alley. On another note I have my rod in my hand at night and flip and pitch to various things in the living room, entryway, and even to the sink in the kitchen when I watch TV. Try this and it will help. I’d try the toilet, but if the wife caught me reeling that dirty water back across the carpet it might be the end for me. Give the river a try, but keep in mind that that current in a real force and it takes some weight to keep on the bottom. I’m not supposed to tell but try up by the ****. Good luck.C&R~~~~>’)))))>< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
