          I am willing to help. The current site won’t submit my posts on my desktop using chrome or edge and/or turning off my antivirus. Had to log in on my phone to post here.

                        1/4-3/8, some 1/2 oz and yes you can go up to 4″-5″ trolling/flutter spoons. Keep an eye on your hook size, the minimum I run is a #6, but use a lot of #4, #2. These are big, tough, aggressive Canadian fish. A 12″ walleye will choke a 3″ rattle bait.

                              I returned from a great trip to Lake Winnipeg last night. I was fortunate to be able to fish with my great friend Canuck for a couple days. We had a slow day up north by Sunset beach on the first day, jumped around a few spots near where he had success with only a few fish to show for it. Word of advice this year if you are going to fish near the early ice heaves you will want to probe after you drill a hole. We found multiple places with a second layer of ice under the top sheet. Our second day we put in on Pruden creek and went back to an old spot. Well that spot paid off with my biggest greenback to date at 30.75″ and a plump 18″ girth! After measurements and photos I sent her back to grow and possibly be caught again! We fished two other spots, one was pretty slow and the last one pretty consistently had hungry fish coming in. We ended the day with over 25 fish. On our third day we went back to where we left them on day 2 and Canuck had one before I even got a line down! We jumped around to three other spots and only found one or two fish. I had a great time getting to spend time fishing with Canuck again. Looking forward to getting back up there in February with the big crew to do some serious hunting!
