pine lake

anybody been to pine lately just wondering how the perch fishings been

[Albertadiver]

Been out there twice now, been skunked both times. Doesn't mean that they're not there though!

I have been there a couple weeks ago and got skunked. I would wait till Feb and it should pick up. Same deal at Sylvan this year too. The fish just are not active at all.

I was out there last weekend and got my limit but the fishing was slow and it took 4hrs

just and I mean just keepers, I find the perch in Gull much bigger. My buddy had two ripped up from a pike or walleye but we never bothered rigging up for pike.

yeah i fish gull to, last year i was getting them up to 14 inches and getting my limit of 10 inchers and up almost everytime i went out. been out this year 3 times and biggest has been 10 inches and very few fish, seeing them on the camera but very picky hopefully picks up soon starting to lose faith in gull.

I know what you mean gull has been extreamly slow this year, so far ive only had 2 good days and that was a few weeks ago. After getting skunked the last time out I decided to head out to pine.

Mind sharing which end of the lake you were at?

[eyewhomper]

no luck on pine yet did you try the south east end 8-10 ft of water if none there they may have gone deep. ive had good luck just north of scottys 20 to 30 feet hope this helps.thinking of trying for the first time this year on the weekend . ill have my vex and camera so i should find some. tight lines and good luck

That's exactly where I was the last two times, and pretty deep, around 25 feet. So I'm guess they're shallow as of about a week ago.

Might try the south end or north end this saturday. If you see a blue dodge dakota with a large brown canvass collapsable shack, that's me.

There's lots of tracks and the snow is fairly compacted. No drifts.

You'll be fine. Might seeya tommorrow.
