[QUOTE="Lungdeflator, post: 204325, member: 5163"] Wow, wish our trip went as well as some of yours! Nice fish! We got up there Wednesday in time to fish for a couple hours. Nailed a 25.5" in the first 5 minutes, thought it was going to be an epic trip. Needless to say, my cousin and I only caught 2 fish the next 2 days. Took our time moving the wheelhouse out to the first ridge out of warner in the cold Thursday morning, then hopped around in the afternoon for one little walleye. Friday we hopped around all day, fished 9-18 fow and still only 1 fish for the 2 of us. Dad and uncle did a little better and my dad caught a 27" out in 16fow. Saturday we bounced around some more and found a decent bite in 10.5fow directly north of the mouth. Dad caught a 29.5" in that spot, and had a decent amount of smaller eyes. Probably only caught 10-15% of the fish we marked, they were pretty tight lipped and most of the ones we caught we had to work for. Sunday, after fearing another day like Thursday or Friday, we went back to the 10.5fow north of the mouth and camped there for the day. The 4 of us ended up with 35-40 fish on the day, with a 28.5" and 2 25.5" fish. Lost 3-4 bigger fish at the bottom of the holes as well. Again, probably only caught 10-15% of the marks. Tried everything in the tackle box. Best bait was the green baitball. Travel on the lake is very rough in areas. Most of the snow drifts are rock hard though, so areas away from the rough ice is smooth travel. We came on at Warner and access is in great condition. Tons of trucks on the lake, wheels or tracks work pretty good. We had atvs, mine had tracks. I think if you wanted to access the west side but fish North or NE of the mouth, you have to hug the shoreline to get around the ridge. We didn't see anybody try to cross the ridge with a truck. Ice is over 40" thick, 12" extension was maxed out at times. Like every other year, the lake gives us just enough to keep coming back. Can be very frustrating at times, but when that big green head comes up the hole, it makes it worth it. [/QUOTE]
