Newton - 2knots - 02-06-2021

Ran over to Newton with Jeff for my 1st trip there. I had a good morning catching bass, gills and perch. Tungsten glow jogs with a wax worm did the trick for me. Thanks for the invite Jeff it was a great way to spend the morning,

How is the ice holding up at Newton?

There was some water at the bottom of the ramp but we just went off to the side and walked right on. I think Jeff said he measured the ice at 13”s and we had 4-5”s of snow on top of the ice

How deep of water was that in?

I'm taking my wife and kid there tomorrow and hoping to actually catch something this time. Smile

About 12’, hit the bottom and come up a bit and dead stick it, every now and then I’d lift the bait up about 6”s and then let it sit again

Sounds good, thanks. Am hoping to put some of the advice I've gotten here to use.

Thanks for the tips, with these and the ones I got in another thread, we went to Newton today and caught 36 perch between us.

Thanks for the reports. What is the average size to the perch there at Newton?

Well done, glad to hear you got on them

That was pretty kind of Alan not to mention the fact that I had one of my worst outings of the year... Sitting right next to Alan i watched him catch close to 30 fish and I finally got one small perch to make it a 30 to 1 spanking.... I missed a few hits, but my bullheadedness to stick with spikes and my frozen wax worms rather than bum some bait really paid off for a near shutout... Snow was sort of sticky so it was work to get the gear on the ice, but luckily the edge margins wasn't too bad if you picked your way around the worst spots... I figured after that showing it couldn't get much worse, so I tried Cutler in the afternoon and I was wrong 0 and 16 on Cutler this year... I don't think there are any fish left in that pond.... I even used fresher bait... have to regroup this week and find my inner Zen to get the fishing Mojo back before I get back on the ice... Really hate it when I live up to my screen name... Later Jeff
