i just got my shelter out today. set up on the eau plain where its down about 2 or 3 feet so the 'eyes will be concentrated in the channel. hope to catch a couple 18"ers outa there. it'd be nice to have some walleye through the winter. otherwise if not much is doin' there then its off to lake wausau. buddy caught some nice fish out of there last year and its a little closer to home.

anybody have any tips on jigging for 'eyes for pike? we use tip-ups which work good and all but havin' your own in the water can help pass the time.

Hey Tut23, I have fished that lake a few times during the summer... I got a new vexlar fish finder for Christmas! I am hoping the temps go back down so I can get back out there! I haven't done great lately... I only caught 3 bass last weekend, 2 small ones and a nice 21"... Let them all go though. Hopefully I will get out there in a few days!
