meh. i think i'll not get my hopes up til the ice is near gone. in that magical time between ice fishing and the bane of my existence, season opener for trout. i hear so many good things about that time of year and walleye. so i'm gonna give it a go this year.

i try to compensate for wasting so much time working by getting up early on the weekends. i may only get in 4 hours a week but other than hanging with the wife it's the only part of life that doesn't suck until the following winter.

now that i can deal with. 6-8 is more of my thing. 4-5 i'll go on at first ice but once it gets thicker up here 4-5 kinda wigs me out a little. it purely a mental thing. maybe i'll head down that way today.

That seems to be the story at almost every post here and "the other ice fishing site"
was there the othere day and in 2 hours saw one fish on the aquaview
and no one has a reason for the lack of catching.
spent time at muddy creek at lake arthur and saw fish but nuthin big
the threee days ive been there tipups were all over the place plenty of bait but no takers and just not me it seems everyone was catchin the skunk

went to donegal yesterday. i got three gills and had one hit on a mini. (which i finally found) there were a few guys out there but i didn't see if anyone was catching or getting skunked. i'm thinking about going down to bridgeport dam.
when last i was in bridgeport i noticed that across from the the sportsmans club a couple of crazy dudes were fishing on the creek. within 10' of open flowing water. you gotta wonder what the thought process of guys like that could be.

they had something in the paper last week about donegal.saying the reason no one is the fishing is football, that there isnt fish there.i dont know no one had said yet they had a good day there this year. that creek was very thin yesterday i wouldnt have a dog out on it.

If you guys are having trouble finding minnows. Try B&M outside of Everson.
