Nice whites as always , hey why does everyone use wireworms for whites aside from the fact that they work , don't flies imitate what they feed on a lot better ie. Bloodworms , nymphs, chironomids. I guess isn't doesn't really matter if the wire worms work that good .... Sure are a cinch tie and sink fast.

The spawn just finished ???? I appreciate your pics and info you give, but I'm sceptical on your whitefish spawn time. I would have thought they would be done some time in late October !

I caught two on Mcgregor New years eve that milked the hole so I released them, all the ones I kept were dry when I cleaned them tho....today I couldn't find any near the spawn beds so I think they might be done here in the south, going to go shallow next week and see if I can relocate some feeding .

So now that the spawn is finishing where does a guy find them? Do they go deep now? Still trying to hook into my first this year...

Speckle... you regularly make me crave willow smoked whitefish. :)
On lakes like pigeon lake and the other parkland whitefish lakes in December fish to 2 to 12 feet deep. In January and February try deeper too. I have fished 25 feet of water and produced whites too.

Did you find any tape worms?
That is the only place in Alberta with a tape worm species that can infect people.
