December Dock Tournament Schedule at Alum

[Curtis937]

yea the winning crappie was 0.90 lb and the winning saugeye was around 1.80,....very nice fish

[zoeconner]

Was their a lot of action?

[Curtis937]

the bite was slow and hard to get but i think most of the people up there caught a few crappie each that were keepers...it seemed like the majority of crappie weighed in were around 0.50 lbs....not bad


the bite will only get better the colder it gets ...next week should be a good time and i hope the bigger crappie and saugeye start moving in...

The fish were few and far between and very finicky,a tough day on the water with few results

I will be coming to the Dec 21 tourney. I also will be bringing some tip ups with me. If your wanting one please pm me with your name and number and ill put your name on it. At the Fin ice show I only took 4 and sold them within the first hour. So let me know.

I think the final number was 18 guys! a great turnout, fishing was decent early and then started to crap out mid tourney but at least for me picked up late, I ended up with 11 keeper crappies and several folks I saw had at least that many keepers as well, I think at least 3 saugeyes were weighed in with the winning fish around 18" Im guessing, a nice fish!

Before we were aloud to go out on the docks we spotted a Muskie jump . That is probibly some of the reason the bite was slow. With Mr Toothy hanging around . Every Crappie I caught was tight to the bottom.But I still had a great time .

[wis2ohio]

Calling for high wind. How bad do you think it will hurt the fishing?

[Curtis937]

yea thats stinks and the winds shouldn't hurt anything....it'll just be colder

[Ntoiceman36]

The front coming through will drive up the barometer and make the fishing more difficult,they will be very picky feeders.

[Ntoiceman36]

Also snow is in the forecast and Dock conditions will become a factor,safety first.

The front coming through will drive up the barometer and make the fishing more difficult,they will be very picky feeders.

But Saturday it should be rising right? Or is it to soon. I need to get a barometer. Anyone knows who sells them?
