Had planned to get out last week but delays kept me from getting out on the ice until today. I usually prefer to fish the lakes here in the Chetek/Bloomer area with less pressure. Alot of them are good for slab crappies and thats about it so today I decided to start the season on the heavily pressured Chetek chain and go out of my comfort zone. One look at a topo map gave me an idea of where I wanted to go and once I got on the lake I hit that area but farther away from the crowds. The result was one of the hottest crappie/perch/bluegill bites I have had in years, with good size as well as numbers. Only drilled 1 hole all night and the vex was lit up at all times. Can’t imagine a much better start to a season!!!
Finally got out on the ice!!
