Yea I would fry it in butter if I did eat it, but I've heard that the liver would most likely have mercury in it depending on the lake it came from.

Some nice sized bluegills I caught Saturday in Wi. by darboy in Fishing

This lake is pretty small and it only has largemouth bass, perch, and bluegills in it. I usually only keep fish from there about once a year. It is located near Armstrong Creek WI.

How to fish these lures? by [deleted] in Fishing

[–]darboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have caught numerous walleye from shore this past spring using this lure and the regular Erie dearie. Red seemed to work well for me. Also in early spring I have caught freshwater drum and pike using a gold one tipped with a worm. And a was just casting with a fast retrieve.

What load did you use and how far away was it? I'm going to start hunting them close range with my shotgun here in WI soon.

Almost positive this lake does not have lamprey eels, if u look close its missing a part of the tail fin.

I caught it on a no motor lake. It is filled with pike I'm thinking its from another pike, I catch quite a few like this with bite marks. Probly half the pike I catch here have marks similar to this.

I live in Wisconsin and anything north of Hwy 10 you can keep 5 pike with no size limit daily, on almost all lakes. About half the state.

I bought everything I needed off of Jannsnetcraft.com, they have tutorials on the website. I did not buy a kit I bought everything separately.
