Well, I'm sold! (weekend report)

[Jdrummer]

7outof10 and I went to rocky reef this sunday to try our luck at the walleye bite. Well I think Mike forgot to pack his "Luck" and we didn't get any fish on Mille Lacs! The rockman said there has been several guys at his resort since thursday and saturday night is the first time they tried going out. They had a very windy and wild ride from the sound of it. We only tried for a few hours on sunday morning then "we" smoked a prop pretty bad at the landing due to the waves  After a feast at the casino and some games the wind died and the skies got clear for a few hours so we tried Rocky Reef again and didn't get a bite (fished from 8 ish to 1:30 am)

Monday , We had plans to hit Little White Fish and what a great plan it was! We met up with the resort owner guy (forgot his name  )
around 8:30 am and after reading our handy map we were off into the great unknown  . It only took about 8 minutes to start marking just giant schools of bait and huge archs on the lowrance! We tried a few different patters and techniques to no avail. Finally I started pitching a 1/8th ounce jig tipped with a fat head and two seconds later, wham we were on crappies! We ended up keeping 2 limits of them and I caught two bass and two small sunnies(we caught well over 50 crappies). Out of all the different schools of fish there was one that was red hot and only one other that was giving up a few fish. Mike ended up catching his lifes best crappie. I also got something that was the biggest in my life, it was a screen! We definitly plan on going up next year ! I'm thinking Bass opener weekend? 

(Mike will have to post pics asap!)

ya that would be nice snow but i dont plan on ever really going up there fishing and down here 12 1/2 is really big comparded to what we get down here

[Jdrummer]

Just compare 3-4 more hours of driving to 1 or 2 more inch fish.  I think Id rather not drive so far. Also there is better than 12 inch crappies in that lake too :fishing2:

what if we would want to fish but just need some where to park to get the wheeler out there is that something you could help us with ?

[bluewavexx]

I could long as you didnt bring too many vehicles, and if the snow gets out of hand i have no means of moving it.

It would be a max of 2 trucks and one small small 4wheeler trialer. I have a decent snow thrower and a few shovels and if it works out we should have no problem moving some snow for ya !

You took long enough to get up here and fish I kept telling you that the crappies were nice but you couldnt make it...look at the new posting I put up today and see about winter...see you next year I would bet....greg
