JV. splake report.. - fuzzyfisher - 12-20-2009
well there for a while i thought i lost my mojoe with the ice.. but just got back from Joe's Valley and i found some nice fish finley... got out ti the fishing area today! and put the hurt to 2 of the bigger class fish in there.. started out catching a saml cutt. then a samll splake, i was busy taking the hook out of the small splake i seen the other rod start going. so set the hook and woo it was on.. a 5 lbs 23 inch splake came up after about a 10 min fight.. well got every thing off the lines and pic's taken the the fish back where they need to be.. cought 1 or 2 small ones then had a fish hit both poles at the same time.. tangled the lines good.. got it worked out as fast as i could.. droped one line back in and as the jig hit the water i seen a big splake jump right on it. 1 foot under the hole.. like it was waiting for it or somthing.. well ony took and 5 min's to get that one in.. again a 23 inch 4 1/2 lbs splake.. there was some other BFT members i ran into as i came out so i yelled at them to come on out and give it a try.. well they moved out and all we caught the rest of the day was small one's.. darn it.. i did not get they'er names so i hope they jump on and say Hi.. not to bad of a day out there today.. started out cold got nice for the most part all day..

the road is great! no problems there at all.. ice is good to 4 to 5 inchs but watch out for the pats with snow on it.. the ice is good but about 3 inchs of slush out there under the snow.. [shocked]

Thank you Sir! I figured if I was going to drive over 100 miles I figured I would go there, and since its my pops first time ice fishing and he has never fished there that it would be a good place to go. Plus 4 year old just seen your pic of your fish and said thats were we need to go so he can catch one just like it [
]. Again thanks for the info on the road and ice.[signature]

but i can hear fish lake calling me as well.. so it's going to be hard to make up my mind on where to go.. lol.[sly]

lol well there is a problem with that.. it's only recomended that ya olny eat 8 oz of fish from Joe's valley in the 2 week time i think... so there is no need to to keep any of the big fish in there.. i put all of them back inless i get one over 10 lbs or so then i might get it mouted.. but thanks for the offer.. when i start getting some at fish lake i might have to take ya up on that.. lol

Didn't know that about JV. Too bad! We have pulled a few out of Porcupine and they are awesome.

Hey Fuzzy, we had a great time out there with you and really appreciate the advice, the friendship and the tackle! You have certainly got the right spots located out there and schooled a couple of guys that thought they had this game down pretty well. We hope to see you there again soon! Again, we had a great time with you and thanks!
