Guest Anonymous Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 Trout season in the boundary waters starts in January so we will see who gets the last laugh! Have you done any swimbait fishing in the boundary waters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheeseWeasel Posted January 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 Not yet but basswood has some monster smallies and I wanna go throw swimbaits for them when the water softens up a little. What about you? I hear south shore Superior has some awesome smallie action as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 I've fished basswood a few years ago but that was before I was into swimbaits but we did catch some big ones on plastics and spooks. I've messed with smaller swimbaits I could throw on regular rod/reel a couple times since than but the last time I went to the bwca I brought a swimbait set up and a half a dozen hard baits. A full week in September of 2010 I fished with a wake jr. or freestyle bass pretty much exclusively for pike. Any time I could find tree that fell into water that was somewhat deep I could pull pike off them. Caught some smallies too but didn't really try. I'm sure a guy could do good with hudds for pike,bass, and lake trout but its not my style of fishing. I like the eastern part of the bwca lakes seem clearer and less pressured.

CheeseWeasel Posted January 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Toothy snot rockets are fun to catch. I fish Vermillion (Tower MN) and Birch (Babbit MN) as much as I can in the summer. I will eventually be moving back to Cali because I just cant get big Florida strain largemouth bass out of my system. Super addicted.
