I'm home for college break and I'm thinking about trying Scofield.
I have read a lot of reports this year from people ice-fishing already and mostly catching very large numbers of small cutts or chubs. My question, is has anyone tried targeting the trophy tigers? I have not seen anyone report of any yet.
I think I know why that is... If you are catching chubs and dozens and dozens of small cutts you are probably fishing way too small. I'd be fishing offerings a 14" cutt could not even get in his mouth.
Just wondering if anyone is fishing big baits for these fish? If people do not start taking advantage of the trophy aspect of this lake, then it will be managed differently in the future I'm certain.
