Headin' out on Sylvan tomorrow. Hunting for a few big girls and some shallow water whites.

Anyone else trying to make the most of this beautiful fall weather?

i'm glad you posted this, i thought I was only crazy one trying to go out one more time.. Drove past sylvan this afternoon and the lake looked just great. Could not see one boat out there so was wondering if there was something wrong with going out right now. Sunday is out for me, but trying go monday and then do the winterizing.

Me and a few buddies are heading west for 3 or 4 days at the end of the month as well. Not crazy...just convicted :)

Besides, I just bought a canoe and trolling motor - wouldn't be right to not test it before the ice hits!

Nothing wrong at all, snuck out tonight and they were smashing smelts under a float!

Will keep fishing until the ice stops me from launching my boat. Then river fishing until the ice prevents me from doing that as well. With any luck should have no more then a couple weeks of down time before the ice is thick enough to walk on! Good feelings about this ice season!

Those are some beauties! I've been out lots still even though its getting pretty cold. I'm pretty sure I'm going to go through withdrawal when the ice comes. Lol!

I did sneak away on Monday for a few hours at Sylvan. What a beautiful day to be floating around on the lake. Sunny, warm, no wind, plus the walleye were biting like usual. Easy to catch +30 in a couple hours. Nice way to end the weekend after a house full of company.

Went south on Monday and had a fantastic day.
The best part was that my son stayed in town for an extra day to fill that empty seat.

Love you son. :sLo_BigBearHug:
