Last Outing on Open Water for 2010

Yep! Call us crazy, but we figured there was one last boat run on the St. Lawrence for walleye. Was a mild day in the forecast, temperature hovering around 0 degrees without wind shield factor. Got dressed with about a dozen layer's and ready I was. My friend Matt had been the week before and caught 65 Walleye. Well, we beat that by 14 Walleyes, catching a total of 79 Walter's. Everything was between 18 and 23 inches long with big belly's. We caught half a dozen that were between 24 to 26 inches, in the 5 pound'er range. All in all, Great day!



1st Ice fishing Outing of the year

One of my good fishing partner's gave me a call today, asking me if I wanted to go ice fishing with him on his Birthday. It's been a traditions of his that goes back many years. We headed to a little feeding hole he knows of on the Ottawa river. There was already someone set up when we got there, so we moved abit further down and drilled a few holes here and there. We were jigging little spoons tipped with a minnow. About an hour in, Manny hooked up a nice 22.5 inch Walleye. Well I guess the fish god's sent him a Birthday present this year!
