Oso planning to go pro
My 7 y/o daughter caught a 3 lb. 1 oz. LM over the holiday weekend, measured in at a hair under 18". Granted, I did the casting and my son assisted with the net, but she hooked, set, adjusted drag, and reeled it in all on her own. Seemed like every bit of 5 minutes for her to land it.Granted, it won't be winning any big bass pots, but four more of those would have put her in the money in any of the tournaments around here.
A question for Scoop anglers:What are your thoughts regarding the common carp... I'm not talking the Asian or jumping variety, just the standard bottom-feeding carp that we've seen in our lakes and rivers for decades, specifically, what do you do if you catch one:1. Catch-and-release2. Throw it in the dumpster/garbage3. Smoke it4. Cut it up for bait5. Sterilize it and send it back as a message to its kin
Pretty sure that joint is very closed.
Yep but still the center of the universe in Trego.
Anybody ever fish the Flambeau Chain, particularly Fence Lake?If so, any advice? Thanks in advance.
Headed to Lake Michigan this weekend to do some fishing... hopefully I don't end up sea sick
What port?
Chili, I’m still looking for the proper receptacle for 250 gallons of salsa. O Canada!!
So where can someone pick up that heavenly stuff?????
Only fished Fence once; pulled a decent-sized smallmouth and a bunch of perch. Usually I'm on the south end of the chain (my parents live on Shishebogama) which is only accessible to the rest of the chain during high water.My only advice is, as always, spinners over jigs.However, do yourself a favor and get dinner reservations at the Four Seasons Supper Club on Big Arbor Vitae lake. Order the pressure-cooked chicken.
Has anyone caught a black buffalo fish?http://www.foxnews.com/great-outdoors/2018/06/15/michigan-fisherman-sets-new-record-with-48-pound-black-buffalo-fish.html
Hey Scoop fishers .... I'm trying to arrange a quick, 4- or 5-day fishing trip to the Hayward area for late summer/early fall. Having never fished in that area, could anyone who has been up there recommend any particular lakes/area we should be aiming for? Because I don't want to buy new gear, we're looking more for walleye, pike and bass than muskie.Thanks in advance for any help.
Anyone have any recommendations for a good fishing guide near st Louis, going down mid Oct., so would be fishing for whatever the season is. Probably 6 dudes on the trip.
Missouri? Missippi river?Or st louis river in northern wisconsin?
Havent fished much in the hayward area. Mostly wasburn county area around Minong and over towards Webb Lake. There are so many great fishing lakes that we tend to just hit the same ones that we have figured out over the years as opposed to trying to continually figure out new ones. My suggestion would be to use the internet and look at places to stay and research the lakes with the internet. Lake link is a website that has fishing reviews for most all of the lakes. Lastly, i would get a guide for the first day. He can show u what they are using n how they are fishing and what to look for, will give u a great frame of reference for the rest of your stay and worst case some go back to spots if you struggle to find fish. Its all about loacting them. My experience is the largemouth bass and pike are quite easy to catch in most lakes. Top water, wacky rig, carolina or texas rig 5-15 feet of water look for structure or in vegetation. Crappie n gills outside weed lines 15-25 feet may take some moving to find the size u want. Suspended or on the bottom. Walleye can be very particular to the lakes n experience or a gyide to give u that initial particular lake experience is well worth tge one time cost. While there make sure to hit Phipps and and Lookers down in Trego is one if the greatest establishments of all time. RIP Rocky Racoon
