We hit the east shore last night and couldn't find a bite. We did see a slammer buck (120+) hit by a car just north of Oneida.
Last night was the perfect example of fish biting somewhere. You fished east, Coach fished North and I fished west. All zeroes. A couple of buddies of mine fished a south shore spot and both limited. I'm going there tonight to fish with them so they're screwed. I seem to be a walleye repellent lately.
We had them surrounded!Good to know! I'll stick with the east shore, maybe you'll scare them my way.
I guess Spanky and I are going to have to make our annual trip to the south shore, sometime within the next week... to see if we can bag a few of those south shore eyes. Even though they run a little smaller and don't put up much of a fight. Don't worry you will hear us coming!! Spanky likes to make a lot of noise. unless we go into stealth mode, then we wear are NST hats so you will see us coming
Fished off the north shore for a few hours midday today. Oh wait, it's not ice fishing time yet. I did get out in the boat for a few hours midday. I anchored and used my ice fishing pole. That was fun, almost as good as the real thing....almost.
Nice stringer Reeleyz! What did you tell that walleye to get his eyes to bug out like that?? LoL
I use fireline with no leader and usually never have a problem for open water fishing on oneida. Been fishing that way for a few years. I use mono or fireline with mono leader for ice
Tried something different with some perch fillets... stuffed pint jars full of fillets, a little kosher salt & a lemon wedge & canned them. Not bad ... now along with the canned venison for ice fishing we'll have canned perch too...canned redneck surf & turf, on ice, baby
