Otisco get together next year.

And if your not careful they will carry off the fish you are fighting! Had 1 come within 6 inches of taking this 9lb eye....I nodded the rod and the fish went down in the nick of time!

Nice walleye. A tug of war with an eagle would be entertaining. You would probly get broke off with walleye gear but i bet i could get it in with 80lb braid. And then it would kick my butt.

It was on 50lb braid with 25lb leader so I imagine I coulda leaned on it pretty hard!   Several people have said I shoulda let the eagle have it, but I take landing walleyes very seriously!!  

[old man]

Lol!😜the eagles can eat the bass and twouts. Walleyes are "what's for dinner" and muskies go back to grow some more.

The eagles get plenty of 12-14" brown trout stockies, and the herons take way more tiger fingerlings than you can imagine.  I'm gonna ask a private landowner in a key spot if I can place my coyote decoy where 2 particular herons decimate tigers.  I spend half of the dark hours during the time that this happens fishing and I try to keep them run off, but last year they were even bolder.  Its a short period of time when stocked fish are very vulnerable near the surface where avian predators clean up.

shhh;i'm hunting twout.

Just read the stock report from ian. One cooperator caught 206 walleye in 2014!!! That's straight up putting in time....

206 is easy...fish 4 days a week for 6 months....the hard part is finding a woman who will let you!! Tracy is what makes it possible!!

I'm gonna try to get over there one night a week... and hoping I've picked up enough knowledge to put a dozen otisco eyes in the freezer this year! I only been fishing there a dozen times over the past 2 years... but I feel confident in the knowledge that I picked up from Otiscos finest!!

Learn the section right above the marina...right near where I snagged up a rigger ball...you can limit there almost every night once you figure it out. Lots of guys fishing there, but I know of 2 guys that do well in that area. Its a bit deeper there and hj's will beat out floaters. Its all about putting your time in and paying your dues! If all else fails I know a guy who can put you on fish! .

BTW, I certainly didn't catch anywhere near 206 eyes...that includes everyone on my boat. No way to get numbers without guests aboard.

That rigger ball... what a nightmare that was. Didn't mean to change up the topics but reading Ians report got me pumped for spring..... I talked to my step kid this afternoon, sounds like I may have a team for the get together.

I found out there is an old boat lift down there. Talk about an instant nightmare, but we didn't lose any gear and I didn't get too excited.

I'd love to do this again but the weekend of July 18-19 is the only one I definitely can't make.  Hope to be up there a bit this year so no biggie but it was a great time last year!

[pete rajner]

[justtracytrolling]

Id say we are at a half dozen or so....Ill start a signup thread.
