Big Schools of Fish Marked at 5’ Down

We over here ice fishing, going thru blizzards, dodging mooses & $!*....and look at this guy.

Duh. Obviously arctic bass preparing for ore spawn and heavy feeding frenzy. Since you're a transplant you probably are not familiar with arctic bass. You're lucky to have survived!

Sorry.

What is it?

Hey! At lest I am not a California or NY transplant! LOL

I slept on it and think I'm going to dumb it down on Friday morning and go out with white and chartreuse jigs tipped with worms and anchor up when I find them again.

Let us know what you find out on Friday.My money says . . . . .Trout.

meant to say.. nice pic. Hope you do well when you go out.

Try pulling a flasher with a crawler harness past the schools . . .if its trout,one will hit it.The cokes got eatten by the eyes,so CWP don't stock them any more.

My guess would be the hatchery truck has been by lately, and those are stockers. Flat line trolling some small sooons or spinners should tell you pretty quickly if I’m right.

Purina Trout chow . . . . .or if you can find it . . .cow spleen . .main ingreedent in trout chow.

So Hawaiian do you fish with the chow as bait or just dump it in hopes of growing the stockers quicker?

I hear the music they play at the circus when the tiny car full of clowns drives up . . .

Looks like you were fishing on a mirror.

smelt

Those are giant schools of smelt, there are millions in that lake.
