Walleye fishing in Northern Michigan (at long last)

Finally after much patience, we get out after some walleye with the snowmobile.

Fun day on the ice 💥 what's the purpose of the small bobber on your tip-ups? Never seen that.....

[@gorbygear6568]

It’s used as a depth marker so when u reset the tip up the bait will be at the same depth as you originally set it.

[@chrishuttenga4731]

It marks the depth we set the tip up so when you put it back down after catching a fish you just put on a new minnow and send it down.

@gorbygear6568 great idea 💥

[@45thoutdoors73]

They have the idea

[@jasonschaefer3309]

What general area were you in, and how thick was the ice? We are quickly losing whatever was frozen down by the GR area. Thinking about making a trip north, no other choice really.

[@45thoutdoors73]

It’s over for us up here as well, was out tonight and won’t risk it again till we have a cold snap.

2nd or 3rd week of Feb. if we're lucky

I'm in GR as well. I'm probably making a few trips north next month.@@jasonschaefer3309
