Pretty much like canned salmon.

When we left my house temperature was 14 degrees. Fortunately the wind wasn’t to bad. Had to do some searching but when we found the right water we hit them pretty good. Caught 13 and kept our limit. I have 7 pints in my canner.

Nice catch! I’ve had to search for them but that’s ok.

Back out today with similar results.

I heard a couple gobbling early this morning across from my house. Also saw at strutting Tom with several hens in a field.

Not sure what you catch here but 28-31” pike aren’t dinks here on the river. Had one guy saying they should have been released as they were large spawners

Took a drive to Goose Bay and Krings Point yesterday. About 25 guys fishing on Goose Bay. At the end of Krings there is a small area of open water with several people fishing off the rocks but still ice way out towards Canada. be a while before you can get a boat in but things can change quickly.

Hit the big lake for first time. We couldn’t find any warm water and at times had to dodge some ice chunks but with some searching we were able to get some nice browns. I forgot the net but fortunately we were able to land them all using the bogs grip.

Went again yesterday with similar results except more perch.

Hit the SLR today for the first time in over a month after being south. Wanted to see if I could get a pike before season closes. Was fortunate to get my limit in a few hours fishing.Biggest was 31”.

I believe if you start very early before the big flocks break up it doesn’t do a great deal of good. Over many years of hunting I feel they establish new areas after break up and I find them in their traditional locations that I already know. I use to do a great deal of scouting but now generally only scout 3 or 4 days ahead of season. They seem to be on the same roost and using same routine as in previous years. Fortunately I hunt private farms.

Yesterday was our last day fishing with Mr Walleye. He put us on another nice limit of Yellowtail Snapper. He and his wife were great hosts for our stay as usual.

Looks like a great day. We’ve fished with Mr Walleye in Marathon three days and caught a limit of yellowtail one day and Mangrove Snapper the other two days along with an assortment of other fish. Nothing like the kings and wahoo though. I

It’s a Winchester model 69. Was my dad’s and still shoots pretty well.

I wouldn’t shoot them if I didn’t eat them. They need to be braised to become tender. I went again this afternoon and got a grey and a black.

Good luck if you get out!

On a nice day it’s a great time to walk in the woods and do some scouting for next year. Hunting squirrels is a great way to practice your still hunting and stalking skills also.

Unfortunately with upcoming family commitments I decided to wraps the boat up for the year.

Looks like next week the wind will let up.

Nice fish. I may have to give it a shot if the weather holds. Been spending most of the fall deer hunting and some perch fishing. My Lund is in the garage and not put up for the winter yet!
