Crane Creek Monster

[Alumacraft Fisher]

very nice fish. That truly is a monster. How thick was the ice up there? How was the journey out? Deep snow or pretty easy travels? I tried out of Catawba last weekend with no luck and am planning to head out of Crane sunday to try and catch my first hard water walleye. I don't even care if its a throw back, I just want to bring one up through the hole.

Caught this 31" slob! On Tuesday the 11th. 5.5 miles out of Crane Creek. This picture was after it froze solid , only a high of 12 deg. That day. We caught our limit by 4pm. 3 were fish ohio!!! #5 pimples all the way , white with dark green tape was hot lure. Fish were hitting 10-12 feet off bottom.

The key to catching on Tuesday seemed to be keeping the bait at least 5-6 ft above bottom until they chased. Many fish hit 10-12 feet off bottom. A couple groups with us still fished the more traditional 1-3 feet near bottom and struggled to get fish to hit! This is the best season since 2007. We also crushed big Waldo-sauruses on Sun/Mon 9th/10th in the south pass 27' water during sunny weather.
