Got out there before work tuesday. Threw a dead line and a crank rattler. Caught 2 15 inch pike off the rattler in 45 minutes. No action on the smelt.

Patterson Lake - Saturday, April 7, 2012 | |
Fished Patterson a couple times from Shore and the Kayak over the last week and a half that I've been here. Catching quite a few Pike from 19" to 25". Have seen some larger fish up shallow spawning. Must have been stocked as adults or swam down out of the river above. I'm assuming the fish I'm catching are 2-3 year olds that were re-stocked over the last few years.
I'm catching them all on artificial lures and a wide variety, but the common theme seems to be perch, fire tiger or clown colors. The rapala X-rap has been good. Other jerkbaits and cranks have produced too as have some swimbaits in the 4" size. Ive been looking for the walleye, but haven't caught any yet. Thought I found some perch and walleye schools near mid lake on the sonar, but couldn't get them to bite. Brian |

Got out after work for a bit on Tuesday. I wanted to see if I could find anything bigger than a 14" walleye. Tried in 17 FOW. Put down a few dead lines with minnows and jigged a clacking rap and a buckshot lure. Was able to bring a few into view on the vexilar and hooked into one but lost it on the retrieve. Also missed one on a dead line.
Ice was 14" thick |

A few people out ice fishing, catching some 5-8 lbs pike, and some 12 inch throw back walleye.
Sounds like the restocking efforts over the last two springs are begining to pay back. |

Is it going to be another winter kill on Patterson? With all the snow again this winter it doesnt look good. Has anyone drilled any holes put a camera in and taken a look? |
