I live in SE MI and was bluegills and crappie right after ice out but have not been out lately due to bad weather. Feels like its time to go ice fishin again!
I know the weather has been crazy to say the least. Was wondering if anyone has had any success yet ? I've tried a few lakes when it warmed up a spell a few weeks ago with not a lot of luck...hopefully, winter will move out and the fishing will star…
I realize living in Michigan the weather changes every ten minutes or so....but starting to think "Mothe Nature" is as screwed up as the Nations' economy...hope "she" gets straight soon so I can start "pounding the water" for some gill action.
If you love to nail a big bluegill or shellcracker on a fly rod, this is your group.
Clayton....also waiting for this crazy snow to be done with ...but as we both know in Michigan the weather can change every ten minutes...hope to hit a couple of local lakes in the next week to see if the gills are near shore yet....
Here's the place to share information on bluegill locations and strategies for these four big bluegill states.
Yes it is except may not be used on rivers, streams, or drowned river mouths...see page 7 of the 2009 Michigan fishing guide

Ditto, but they shut up after going with or eating the results.
Aw shucks there I go making a fool out of myself on line again. Sorry about the whole rooked thing, I saw that was on a different post of one of your pics Zach. I'm a little paranoid about Google, so thats where that came from. I've gotta work on my…
thats a big ole chinqupin
My stomach usually doesn't give the scales enough time to join in on the action though.
They are a very different fish I'll say that. The best I have figured so far is that they like the bottom and live bait, not to say that they wont strike an artificial, it takes some real skill though from what I can gather and I really admire those…
I was kind of worried about that, but I have seen some variations of Hybrids look this way, or at least that is what was posted on the internet.
We always called these black pearch.
To be honest I do not think the Green Sunfish have the yellow bel…
I am still trying to figure out how to fish for Redear. I have not had much luck with them. The seem to be pretty smart.
Do you have tricks you would like to share on catching these guys?
Did you happen to get the weight of any of these fish?
They fight just like a big bluegill. I am told you can eat them but haven't tried yet. The ones we caught today went to a friend who has a pet shop. I wouldn't mind trying them though. They are local to south Texas and I would imagine that they eat…
Oops sorry Zach I forgot about need a trout stamp on your license.
Bank access has improved since they began stocking trout back in the late 90's. As of now State regs require a trout license to fish it during the season ($10). If you plan to launch a boat you will need a permit. Not sure about other options as far…
About the only time you can fish Pawhuska from the bank is when they drop the lake for trout season. There is no cost to fish it.
I know, I will have to try it out this fall when the temps drop a bit. Can you fish it from the bank at all, and is there a cost to fish it?
Oh brother, Zach living in Northeast Oklahoma and having not fished this lake before......Let me tell you.
A spring fed 90 Acres of Heaven.
The wildlife department comes in and stocks trout every other week from November until the end of March (bl…
Cedric you are truly gifted to be capable of putting things like this into the words they way that you do. I've been reading your posts, you have just gained a huge fan. Cant wait to hear more from you!
I have yet to fish lake Pawhuska, is it a nice lake? Did they stock everything in it?
So how do they fight and can you eat them?
almost has a knot head
