Saginaw Bay Walleye

[Duckman1]

Any one been going out off of Linwood Rd. of Boutell Rd. How is the fishing?

Thanks.

Better stay away from Boutell yet. Linwood ice is in great shape!

[jig head]

ice 2 miles out from linwood is 9 inches.
they are picking up some fish there
I did see guys coming in from state park last night

[brokentines]

We set up at the first pressure crack in about 12 feet of water. Caught one fish just at dark. Had the aqua-view on during light and never seen a fish. right when we switched to the vex we had one come in and caught it right away ( it was aggressive) never seen any others. I talked to a guy at the parking lot who got 3 and had one break him off.

[SNAPPY]

Went off Linwood tonight. Caught 1 just before sundown about 13 inches and threw back. Was also aggressive as it stole bait from other pole as I lost it. Went right to the other and tried to get that one.(busted!) Was not quite to the pressure crack in about 11 fow.

9 inches sounds like it might be enough to drive on,any cars or trucks out there> :fish:

[Mad Jack]

Cars or trucks ????
I think i am a chicken because i still do not know if i want to go out with the quad yet???
I probably will for the weekend though..
I have been seeing a few shanties set up right out of Bay City State Park the past few nights...

Good Luck to everyone that goes
And most of all be safe.

The crack opened up from 1 ft to 5 ft in places off linwood 2 miles out. Be careful!

THey are probably about 2 miles or so.
I will not or would not be crassing any cracks yet. just my 2 cents.
Depending if i get company or not this weekend i will give it a try out there and taking the 350 yamaha Bruin But still have to mount the milk crates and stuff to go..

My buddy went out from Palmer Rd. on Sunday past the cracks,jumped a 5ft. section of water going out.....went for a 40yrd. "jet ski" ride on his Chapperel on the way back :yikes:
Said he feels like a cat with only 8 lives left :lol: Didn't catch anything either,but the ice was 6-9 inches.

[Mad Jack]

Said he feels like a cat with only 8 lives left :lol:
i WOULD HAVE TO AGREE WITH THAT!!!!!!!!!
I WOULD NOT LIKE THAT PART.
I WILL STAY ON THE OLD SHORE SIDE OF IT FOR AWHILE YET..
