Bass crappies walleyes? How will fish react to this cold weather? I go to this lake for crappies and the last 2 trips have got walleyes instead. Last trip I could’nt get either but at the end of the trip I got a bunch of smallmouths! That was cool- Maybe I should fish for pike, pike love this weather-thoughts?
Heading to Vilas County, WI tomorrow for annual walleye/musky trip. Weather forecast is flat out miserable. Accumulating snow, wind, and cold the entire time we’ll be on the boat. Curious to see how it affects the bite. I’m hearing it hasn’t turned over yet. Still visible thermocline on the graph. This might tip the scales. Hopefully won’t shut the fishing off.
Looking forward to hearing reports. Hopefully I’ll have something to share.
Nope, I got roped into a Halloween party.
Last year I went as a Fisherman but everyone called my bluff. So this year it’s more of a realistic costume.

That brings up a good memory pout. High school party at a private school my buddy dressed up as one. Had good laughs with the brothers, but you could tell they didn’t appreciate too much. Not long after that I believe he was sleeping in class with head leaning on arm “reading”, brother pushed arm out of way with ruler and head slams into the desk, was hilarious. He retired that costume in years to come.
I’m heading to Sabaskong Bay LOTW tomorrow early for a week of chasing walleyes, crappies, and dragging big ol’ cranks for muskies. Only getting 3-6 inches of snow tomorrow night. Bring it on!
I’m heading up to the Park Rapids area Friday to continue my pursuit of a 30″ eye. I was muskie fishing in a short sleeve shirt on White Bear last Sunday, What a difference a week makes!
I’m hoping the Lakes up by Nevis have turned, it’s been fairly cold up there.
Good luck everyone and be safe in that chilly water!
Belle, I got a buddy that has a place in Nevis (spider) he fishes a lot of surrounding lakes in the area with guides.
He’s dragging Rainbow Chubs off the bottom reel slow and has been doing well. 15′ FOW
Will be on Osakis this weekend. If the fish are biting, it never seems too cold.

Mahtofire14 what is a ‘transition break’ is it just a break?
Anyone else dare go there?

Yeah, basically a normal breakline but typically in between the initial break and deep water. I suppose I should have said transitioning bass not breaks.
