I was using shrimp, bums me out the dang turtles like the shrimp too. I quit using chicken liver due to tired of catching the friggin turtles but guess they like whatever your gonna throw out. I tried some of my stink bait also but had no takers on it, which don't suprise me, but the turtles don't like it so that's a plus.

But anywho I went out this afternoon for a couple hours as the stripers are biting better during the late afternoon. We had some good heavy rain last night and I had a few trout leftover from saturdays expedition and headed out. Fish had lockjaw from 3pm to 5pm but then just like that they were busting bait on the surface all over the place like mad and it was good fish to not the little rats ...

(Yes, Black Friday, pretty dumb!) I drove by Lake Reno and noticed about 2 people out on the lake fishing (which to me is pretty dumb as the ice cannot be all that safe as of yet) I was in Alex about 3 hours and when I drove back, there were probably 100 people out there ice fishing. So I expect the crappies,or sunnies were probably biting. Ther word got out really quick. Me, I would choose to wait a few weeks. So, ...

On Willmar/Foot Lake, you'll find panfish during the day and walleyes at night along the shorelines. Minnows have been the best option for walleyes. Pheasant hunting is getting better now that the corn is coming out, duck numbers are limited, and archery kills have increased this week.

Areas worth noting include Priest Point, Starbuck Beach, and in front of the high school. The crank-bait bite at night has been slow to develop. Crank-baits are producing walleyes on Long Lake in eight to 10 feet and shallow-running Shad Raps are working on_Lake Emily in less than six feet. There's still a lot of corn in the area, which has limited pheasant hunting success and duck numbers remain poor.

A vertically-presented jig and minnow is turning walleyes in 30 to 60 feet on lakes Ida and Miltona. At night, there's a crank-bait bite close to shore. Look for suspended crappies in 14 to 20 feet on Lake Victoria and Lake Geneva. Waterfowl hunters are seeing more geese than ducks and pheasant hunting should improve as the corn is removed.
