Took the day off work today, and fished THE lake in Muskoka.

Landed two lakers and one whitefish.

Walking on ice is now much better than last week/weekend (I think the last couple of days' rain "washed out' lots of snow:-)

The bigger of the two lakers is just over 28 inch (I was hoping it is over 30 inch for the derby entry, that is:-)

Nice. That is getting close to the 30+" category. What was that you used for the WF? Was that a small plastic bait with the thin tail in the mouth?

Thanks. And yes a small plastic bait on a high hook (about 3 feet above vibrato)

Very nice James! I used a very similar rig for the whitefish I caught.

That’s a nice catch! It’s a tough go getting to 30” on that lake, 28” is rare.

Thanks. And that's right. I believe over all these years fishing this lake so many times, this one (28 inch long) is the biggest laker I caught on the lake.

The slush? A lot better than last weekend. There are quite some snowmobile trails you can walk and follow. Off the trails, there are still some slush though. I think by this coming weekend it will firm up. Cheers and good luck
