Default Dont waist your time

Was there back in January. Was one of the worst lakes I have fished all winter. There is nothing in there. MAybe a few small perch which is not worth the trip no matter what lake. You would have more action at Gull lake.

On the lake two weeks ago, and saw lots of spawning ling, and caught 4. Saw one small pike, no perch, no walleye, and no whites. Real hard to get around on Buck, as it has overflooded, you should only use a ski-doo, or such. When you drill a hole, the water keeps on comming up, like all day. Buck is still one of my favorite lakes, for summer fishing.

I've only fished it a couple times in the winter, and never had great luck. Summer time for me has been way better, but its still kinda hit or miss it seems...

illave u guys some trouble when we bought a white from em. there all big/fat too we open up there stomach and it had a bunch of decaying minnows in it. lots of em so i guess bouncing a minnow off the bottom would be key.

was out there with a fishing buddy on monday past,he had the aqua view ' set up , seen lots of perch 'maybe `12 or 15 small perch ,no bites.I blame it on the big pike that came to visit,,didn't see a perch after that ,that pike came back like three times that afternoon,i tried to catch the bugger to get him out of the way 'but he busted my line.
