Hi all,
Does anyone know if Pineview is frozen over yet or not? I've been fishing from my boat at Jordanelle the last 4 weekends in a row, and the trout fishing seems to really be slowing down, so I want to try for a Muskie one last time.
I'll be going Saturday morning (12/18) if I hear back that it isn't frozen over. I will be launching before daylight, and can really only stay till about 1:00 p.m.
I'll be going by myself again most likely as my usual fishing buddies say that its "not fishing season" anymore.
I went out earlier in the summer to hunt for muskies and purchased a a few broken back rapalas in various sizes and colors, I've also got a plethora of other lures that I understand are supposed to catch them, and I've been reading up on late season techniques, but I've never caught one yet!
I'll be in my 14' alum boat, which has a gas motor, a trolling motor and a fish finder. I'll probably try trolling as well as pitching and jigging.
I'm as anxious as anyone to start ice fishing, but I really don't want to put the boat away yet and the last few weekends out on the water have been awesome!
Please reply if you know if Pineview is still launchable, or if anyone has any late season tips or pointers for an idiot such as myself.
Thanks!
Randy

I used to N.ot have E.nough T.ime O.ff to go fishing. Then I retired. Now I have less time than I had before. Sheesh.
