This past weekend 4 of us fished as hard as possible and managed only a handful of baby pike. Anyone know whats hot for eyes right now? Headed back up Feb 1st with some buddies and I know they are looking to me to provide some direction on how to catch fish but last weekend was so discouraging I am starting to doubt I have the solution. We tried jig & minnow, glow spoon & minnow, lipless rattle crank baits, and a variety of others. Any tips would be much appreciated. Cheers.

We were up at Cutbank beginning of January. The fishing was painful. It was dead slow. I noticed on the camera that the bottom of the lake was infested with shrimp and some sort of water worms. I tried over sized wire worms that I tied, trying to match what I saw on the Camera. Success !!!!!!!!!!!!!! I caught over 10 Walleye , 8 Pike and 4 Burbout and a couple of whites . I missed 3 or 4 Perch. Maybe the wire worms I used were too big for them. Credit goes to Zip who shared his wire worm patterns with all members here. Try making some of these and tip the hooks with the tails of minnows . I didnt have maggots to try . Good Luck and tight lines
