Yesterday was all catch and release. I took the hub house out just before dark lastnight and got it setup for this morning. Im having a lot better midwinter fishing this season than in years past. I think it's because Im not plowing roads out to my spots and thus people are not able to get out on the lake, thats taking pressure off the fish. I did however plow out a bunch of spots where I wanted other people to fish, close to the landing. I've been taking the snowmobile out to my spots. I'll get some pictures of my hub house setup.

Guess I wouldnt make a good guide after all. Been smashing fish the last two weeks, took momma out today (hard to get her on ice). We fished a spot that has been steady the last 3 days with nice perch and decent walleye...caught 6 big perch, bite shut off at 10am!!! Done with perch for awhile, going to concentrate on finding some big crappie.

online gif hostingAll in all it was a good trip we got back to the same lake we tried last year it’s about 13 miles back from my cabin the only way to it is sleds I know that fish are in that and probably good size but when you only get to fish it 8 inch’s at a time it’s hard to zone in on them and learn a lake headed back Feb hopefully we will get on them I know they are in that lake just got get on them

I’d be interested I looked at the Eskimo seems like a good unit thought about getting the insulated one Steve’s got a clam shell it’s nice has the chairs and stuff built in but it’s hard to drag around through the woods trying to get to lakes, we follow the creeks but a lot of times it’s open water so you got to plow through the woods

And here we are with open water...... You know I have time for fishing the month of Jan, you all are welcome to come up and I would be happy to guide you around the area lake's, even supply your fishing equipment. I have a friend just up the road that keeps a few of his small cabins heated for the winter that he rents out. That’s a offer I just might take you up on what’s he get out of his cabins

I have a single man insulated that I can heat with a match on the coldest days, the hub is nice but to keep it really warm on the cold days I have to use a sunflower on a 20lb cylinder (also insulated). I think Im going to get rid of the single man (clam kenai pro thermal), very nice for hole hopping but to small for a 300lb guy. Im going to replace it with a Clam Yukon XT Thermal, it has a deep heavy sled that I can easily get all my equipment into. I also put runners on all my sleds/houses to keep from wearing out the bottoms.
