    Fished a lake this weekend with no public access. Steady stream of 12" crappies and some very nice sunnies as well.

    Season is going by way too fast.

    I've been house sitting the last month and a half... No time to get out.

    Hitting it hard in the coming weeks. On my way to Leech lake tonight for the weekend. Jumbo perch and walleye beware.

    I haven't been out for 3 weeks...

    Friday-Sunday trip planned for next weekend and that could very well be my last. Would like to get to Lac Qui Parle for some crappies sometime in March.

    We did decent. Going back in a month. Late ice is much much better.

    Headed to Big Swan Lake tomorrow-Sunday for some crappie fishing. Haven't chased crappies around that area before so I'm pretty excited.
