Big Crappie-Northern Pike-Open Water

The key word is water.  February weather remains warmer than normal.  Ice fishing is risky in most places on the Mississippi River near Guttenberg.  Boats are going in where the ramps are open.

Big Crappie are being caught.

Small bluegills have to be culled to get a good stringer full of keepers.

Northern Pike are first to start spawn so they are filling up with shad minnows.

Bob is off to sport shows this month.

A satisfied customer, Bill Miller, told me all about his experiences at Murrays.

He looks forward to meeting Bob.  I tried to dampen his expectations.
