I had 3 in Birch and 2 in Mustang. All slot fish. No big girls though. Biggest was probably 5 lbs. All mine came on a jig.

I fished submerged roadbeds in 10-15' with a C-rig using an 8" lizard. Caught a 7-2 and a 5-5. Caught a dink on a white vibrating jig. Couldn't get bit on a trap. Fished north in stained 51-52 degree water. Tried a jig for a couple of hours in 6' and less with no results.

Was that you in the white Champ? lol...if it was, i bet it was painful watching us catch so many behind you after cutting us off on that secondary point. we weren't mad but it was a little frustrating. also...the temps were in the 46-48 degree range there.

Funny I caught myself not paying attention and almost cut that champ off Let them keep rolling and they stuck a PIG.

Right before we got cut off I almost crapped myself. My partner was fighting a 5 lber. and I bent down to get the net ready and BOOM BOOM BOOM. Apparently, we were right in front of some duck hunters that were laying down on their backs on the bank. We put the trolling motor on 5 and got the heck out of there. In hindsight it was funny....but totally not expected.

Nope. Was in the white/red Ranger. Didn't stay out on the main lake point. Moved in along the east bank. Found warmer water there.
