		[quote harlin]The ironic thing is when KSL does a show it just causes a huge pressure increase and all the macs stop biting in those few areas that are iced up. The same thing happened last year too. If the whole lake was iced up it would be a different story, but that never happens often enough. 
Running a show on catching the pup lakers might be a feel good thing to do, but realistically it wont result in more harvest. Maybe more crowding in those few areas.[/quote]
KSL featured an open water segment this time. They focused on jigs tipped with a small amount of bait at the edges of deep flats, 50' to 70'. They touched on trolling using side planers with cranks and downriggers with spoons.
In this case, I hope it works to teach the guys that say they cannot catch the pups how to do it.
I know that the KSL featured methods will work, and I know that this is not the only way.
As for catch and kill, who knows. First would be an elimination of the limits on the pups in my mind.
