Care to share what you go the pike on? I'd wouldn't mind getting a few of those before it gets dark (eye time!!).

Threw X-raps and some jigs. We got one bite each with no hookups. So, I guess I have to add Lincoln to the "It Sux" list! LOL!!!!

I won't give away any spots on this lake but I will say there are eye's in it to be caught. My best days for em actually have been when I was bass fishing :confused: , not when I try to target them :dizzy: .
Not sure why, but that is the way it has worked out for me.
Boated eyes up to 5 pounds (me) and SM bass over 20 inches (my stupid buddy) LOL!
Keep trying and good luck, you'll need it!

Well, we tried some of the "obvious" spots... maybe we needed to try some not so obvious spots!

I caught my first walleye there this summer. The DNR has been stocking it the last few years, and this past June, they stocked 60,000 fingerlings.

They planted a lot of eyes there over the years. Tough lake with all the traffic it gets in the warmer months. Caught em shallow and deep, suspended, on top, and on bottom. But again, usually when I do not expect them. Caught them on thin fins, beatle spins, top water lures, worms, drifting and casting to name a few things.
