WT 54-62! Wow.
In case you missed winter. . . .it's almost March. . Lol
Well, after losing about 25 crappie to a pesky otter that has apparently found our dock (even wired my fish basket closed last weekend and he bend the sides of the lid down to steal my fish) which meant I had to clean anything in the basket at the end of each day, I finally decided I needed an otter-proof fish box. I found an old bed frame down in the shed that was destined for recycling -- after some cutting and welding, I built a fish box. Caught 4 nice ones on Saturday and they were still in the box on Sunday -- then added another 20 to the box on Sunday. Fishing with minnows (as always) at about 8-10' in 20 fow.

Nice design, Toon. I could use one of those to ward off a fisher (similar to a marten) that likes to steal our trout up in Montana.
Toon you are a talented scavenger- great looking fish box!
That looks great! I see you can stick a lock on it also. :highfive
Nice job Toon, those otters can be a pain!!
Fished yesterday and kept 31 biggest fish was 1.80. Double dippin Beaver bottom baits over break-lines just out of the creek channel in 14-21 ft. Fish are really spread out right now. It seems like the numbers being caught are between 20-40 keepers a day.
Varmithunter- yes sir I'm on the south end of the lake. EB
Oh yeah, I had to put a hasp on it but for now I just use a little clip to lock it closed. But I could I always put a real lock on there if my fish start disappearing to human culprits. :biggrinQuote:
