Lake Ashtabula - Saturday, June 11, 2011

Report Details
went to the crossing, and saw a bullhead hater at its finest , his 9 or 10 year old caught a bullhead, and he was really exited, then he grabbed it and yelled " you don't want one of these!" and threw it against a rock, and at 200 yards away, we could hear it crack, if a game warden saw, that, he would have ticketed him, what a #&#@!
as for what we kept , 23 white bass between 12 and 15 inches, and one incredibly fat 18 inch eye. no bullheads, something is wrong with that lake. I have never seen it so crouded, but is 4 bucks for a scoop of minnows good? I want to say no, but I don't remember what the norm is. the lake is not pea soup yet, but in a few weeks it will be.
free thinker = no thinker

It was busy this weekend because it was the Barnes County Wildlife Club's Walleye Tournament.  I bought a couple of those $4 scoops of minnows as well.  It is not a good price, but I think it's the only place on the lake you will get minnows.

really!? bullheads are a rough fish.  NOT illegal to kill them or throw as many of them away as you want. It IS illegal to leave them laying on shore, basically a littering ticket for leaving garbage.  If you like eating them, that is great, good for you.  I will even keep mine and give them to you cuz i would like seeing them go to good use, but why bitch about other people throwing a bullhead - U KNOW most people do this. and yes probably not the  best way to show a kid how to treat a fish u don't want.
