Nice day Mark! Were you fishing in a lake setting?

fishing canals wt 46 deg . waxwarms working well fish r late this fall .were hoping for a good  winter.

Tell us more - got any pics?

hi david no pics . buying new cam next time glow jigs working well.

Casting? Float?

Caught a ton of big fish on a 30 acre lake. Caught a few shallow right at sunrise, then hammered them on a 1/16 ounce jig with Gulp! maggots or redworms in 15-25 feet for the rest of the day. Caught 40 gills 5 redear and three bass. All EXCEPT for three of the gills were over 9.5. All redear over 11". The bass were small. Caught them both deadsticking and actively jigging but usually just jigging vertical and popping it every once in a while. Doesn't freeze much here in SE Indiana but usually we have a couple of good days to whack em'.

Nice Gill Jacob and good testimony...Nice transition through the day!

Good is right - thanks Jacob!

Nice bull 'gill!

Thanks Mark. You know I feel for you guys in Ontario right now. But then I'm extra jealous in the summer. I guess it's a good balance.

 you got that right . rain turning to snow tonight cold temps for the next week we  do alot ice fishing up here for gills in the winter . good size gills 8 to 10 inchs
