I hope a lot. The FH are slow and easy for game fish to catch and eat. Hopefully that will keep the current predators from slurping up as many of the new predators as they would otherwise.

Let freedom ring!!!

Those fatheads looked large!

Those walleyes were a good size too!

Smallies were, well....small!!

Looks like great fun, Dwight! Good luck - can't wait to see what Bremer Pond does with them over the next few years!

Dwight were there any dead ones? I see that O2 tank on the truck. The WE and SMB are probably in cover by now.


Good morning Dave, I've checked the ships systems, and everything appears to be running normally.

Dwight,

Looks like you will have some interesting bonus fish. Are the smallies pellet trained? Doesn't matter but was just curious. Keep us posted! I hope to hatch my own smallies in the spring in a separate pond.


If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

I checked for floaters last evening and again this morning. Didn't see any.

I have noticed that the malaise caused by your not posting for a long while has been lifted! cool

None of this batch were pellet trained. I will update as needed , though there probably won't be much to report until spring.

I suppose it is possible on of those WE could be caught through the ice this winter. That would be almost as interesting as catching a 40" NP! Hopefully the WE will keep their distance from the NP and Darlene. eek

You get one of those walleyes on a hook in the ice, and you'll get yourself a 40" NP right quick!

Good to hear that at least one has survived all those hungry mouths. If they are all in the 15" range, they should be safe from most of the mouths in the pond now, except for maybe Darlene.

I'll bet one of the larger NP would take a swipe at one if given the chance and it was hungry enough.

Nice Dwight.

At first I thought your post was some sort of inside joke that I was not getting. Then I looked at the dates of the previous posts and it made sense!

Nice when a plan works out.

Caught on a black skirted, black bladed, 3/4 oz spinnerbait with a MT chartreuse flake split double tail trailer in 12 feet of water.
Running the spinnerbait bumping on the bottom. She bit down on it three times before I set the hook. Clear bright sunny afternoon......

That is a beauty. Glad to see at least some survived past the size of NP snacks!

Hopefully a few of those dandy walleye will show up in the ice fishing catches. They are a treat through the ice.

Solid, well done - she's a beaut! Any SMB yet? They should be 15-20" by now.

Haven't seen a SMB this year. Should target them this fall for a look see.

Luckily the hair is in a ponytail or your bald head would be even more jealous. smile
