question for mike walerak


Recommended Posts

Mike I wanted to ask you about any fishing reports. I notice that you post a lot of information and talk to many people. Are the fish biting anywhere? I would like to head out tom. and maybe check out thompson or sinia. Please let me know if you have heard of anything going on.

thank you!

I'm not Mike, but the bait shop in Lake Preston has a HSOforum that gives updated reports for Thompson. Report was a few baots, but not much action for walleye. The report was 11/15.

I fished at Waubay 2 weekends ago. Walleyes are biting there and you can also get your limit of perch if you anchor and wait for schools to come through.

As a rule of thumb, Thompson always has fish biting. I have'nt made it out there this fall. The only thing I have been hearing is the fish you do catch are big out there right now. But that lake has it moods. It seems like one day you can only catch bigones the next day go out and only catch dinks and get skunked on the third day.

I have fished Sinai a little at night off shore latley and can usually pick up a limet in a few hours. Jigs and minnows have been the bait of choice. It has been too windy to get my duck boat out there when I have had the chance.

I will definatly be out this weekend for what could be the last hurrah for open water fishing.

Mr Fey: Thompson has been pretty slow lately. Very few caught over the weekend, even from the boats. Hottest lakes around here are Vermillion, Scott's Slough, Madison, and as Mike mentioned - Sinai. Vermillion has been producing nice 'eyes lately. Pulling plugs has been the best presentation in the boat and from shore, jig & a minnow or throwing a rap after sunset. Good luck and let me know how you do. Todd

Just got back from Siai, A little slow but they were there right at sunset. Missed quite few bites only to notice an extremly bent point on the jig hook mad.gif. Once the jig was changed, wahla a 21" and a dink came in the boat within 5 minutes grin.gif. Had another bite and had to get back. Can't wait to get out again. The fish semed to show a preferace to dark colors tonight. Purples and blacks seemed to be the ticket. Good luck.

If any one sees a 16' green boat with 9.5 evinrude swing over and say hi. I will be out quite a bit this weekend if the wind stays down.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
