    this has to be a record for Colvill ice out? May have to pull the boat out early March instead of April this year

    Anyone find the big eye yet? Plenty of sauger to be had but I can’t find the eyes . After dark hasn’t yielded much either .

    Out of the 40 some fish we caught, only 1 was an eye, all be it a fatty 20.5″ that went back to hopefully grow to the caliber size eyes pool 4 is known for. Biggest sauger we got was 18.5.

    I think even the fish know its still February? I don’t think we will see spawning eyes for another month

    Only eyes we cought over the weekend were a couple of 15″ers and one 19″ but did catch some nice 17 to 19″ saugers that went back.
