| 12" Cutting Board. |
I had received yet another "hot" tip on a perch and walleye bite on a local lake. So I gave my brother Joe a call and asked if he was in? Now due to the High temps and winds the last few days he was skeptical to the ice conditions and a first hesitated, which I understand, but after a little chatting back and fourth he went for it.
Now I was skeptical as well so on the way to drop zoey off at her grandparents, we decided to make a detour to the lake we planned on hitting. When we got to the landing there was a few wheelers and even a small truck parked on the lake. We got out and walked to an open hole and checked the thickness, 7-8 inches, Good to go.
I dropped Zoey off and headed to get bait and wait for Joe, About 15 minutes later we were at the landing getting ready to head out. We set up on the deeper side of a break starting at about 10 foot and dumping down into an inside turn that was 18 foot. Right away we marked fish. I dropped down my bobber rig and then went for the jigging rod. First drop, about 30 seconds of jigging and I hooked a perch. Sweet! So we had fish in our holes, and were having fun talking. Joe and I both ended up catching fish on the new Lindy Bug, and Lindy toad, I cant say enough about how nice the new Lindy jigs are! If your in the bait shop and are buying jigs pick up an assortment of them. I have not used any other jig on my rods this year!
From the time we got to the lake til about 3 hours later the action was pretty much non stop, but about 3:30 the bite just stopped.....Nothing. We waited till about 4:00 Jumping from hole to hole trying but came up empty and decided to head out.
So look for reports in the next week or so from the rod shop but Hopefully I can find an hour or so to sneak out!
Tight lines,
EK
