Fishing, fishing, fishing...

I have been on the water just about every day for the past two weeks catching all kinds of critters...weather has been up and down but it looks like we're pretty much clear now for nice weather for the next while.  That means GOOD FISHING!!!  Here are some photos from the past week.  

My pal Chuck Ferczok with a nice crappie that he caught - Lake of the Woods

Nik Antropov with a beauty lake trout...gotta love the colours!  All of these fish were released by the way.  

Nik and his buddy Basile with a couple of nice walleyes from "Woods".  

Basile with a good smallmouth...check out the bright red eye!  

Nav with a big pike - caught on an X-Rap

Nik's 37.5" pike caught on a 4" Trigger-X pearl grub rigged on a Northland Mimic Minnow Jig (fishing for bass)

Alex Keszler witha nice walleye he caught on a jig/plastic while helping me film a segment for my TV show Fishing with Gussy.  It's a good one!  We catch a bunch of nice walleyes all on artificials...

This was one of the HOT walleye baits this week...I have NOT used minnows at all.  A 3" Northland Impulse Smelt Minnow on an 1/8 ounce Vegas Jig.  Trigger-X Minnows have been really good as well.  

A pretty good sized whitefish I caught while jigging for trout - 3/8 Mimic Minnow Jig tipped with a 4" Smelt Minnow.  

In keeping with the multi-species theme...a nice largemouth!  Also from Lake of the Woods!
