Will start by saying after this past weekends fishing were making another big move as the area that was full of good fishing fizzeled out just like that. All these years of doing this and I have no clue what’s going on. How one spot can be so good then turn so bad . I would love to blame mother nature but then you here how someone hammered them catching fish all day and night.
Old Minnesota had Richy and his buddies, on a brand-new spot in a fishy area and They may have caught 6 fish?
Are big crew form Iowa. Sarah, Kenny, Carl and Terry. They did not catch very many fish , they did have a grand time and I guess thats what really matters.
The group with them in North dakota also only caught a few fish. Again, my memory has failed me with names. They are the same crew that came with them two years ago. We had both those houses set up close to where Joe and his buddies caught fish for 3 days.
Tammy and her family were in Utah. They did have good fishing with one of the boys catching his first walleye. I think they took home 10 walleyes plus a couple elusive yet still catchable upper red lake crappies.
Montana Had first time clients Nicole, Rob and their friend. When I stopped in friday eve they had 2 walleyes, one elusive yet still catchable upper red lake crappie. Plus, they missed two fish while I was visiting and landed a small walleye.
Alaska had Joe and his 3 kids all the way from kansas, again a fresh spot and the fishing was horrible, I had also plowed a spot for their buddy and his 3 kids. I’m not sure what happened but by time they left monday morning there was standing water all over that area?
Big Tony has been camping in california and catching fish. every night.
Jamie was in Utah sunday night after we moved it, they did get a few walleyes with his son catching his first walleye also.
Craig and his buddy were staying in the cabin fishing in portables with their sleds. They did real well all weekend.
Yesterday Jonny boy and Big Tony started moving the whole fleet to two new areas. Jonny boy loves his way points so that’s where some of the fleet went. while a couple other houses are going back where we had good fishing 2 weeks ago.
I spent the morning cleaning and prepping all the houses for the big moves. Then I was off to get the new tires mounted on rims for the red baron.
We have to keep an eye on red barons radiator as it has a small leak along a seam. Stop leak helped for now but I will again be having to replace the radiator. I’m thinking maybe we can add some more cushion on the bottom radiator support to help some of the bumps she takes out there.
Again, today we have 3 houses to prep for guest arriving today. Ashly poo made it up to help us out today as Jonny boy had to go out of town on another flooring job.
With all the elusive yet still upper red lake crappies being caught I’m not sure there will be any to chase come march.
We did have our Utah house open up this coming weekend Jan 20th, 21rst. Time to do the back exercises as it’s getting lite out. Darrin rolled in last night as well as scott so we will see how they did sometime today.
