Saturday report 2/3
Had a long to-do list to finish before the big game, so I penciled in a trip to Tilcowawayflex Lake on Saturday. Was greeted by stiff winds and freezing holes but luckily there are shelters and propane heaters for that
 . Managed 2 Salmon on tipups and a bunch of weirdly suspended Pickerel. Lots of fish coming in hot on the flasher but wouldn't bite. Packed it in around 4pm when as I was walking off the ice, I was stopped by a Conservation Officer. Very nice guy, checked my license, made sure all my tipups had my name/address on them, checked my harvested fish, etc. Not many guys fishing where I was, so I suggested he visit Poacher's Paradise currently going on at Budd and Hopatcong. Luckily, he had been to both lakes earlier in the day and said he had observed illegal activities at both, including over the limit and short fish being kept. I thanked him for his efforts and I was on my way. Poachers beware, they are out there and they will find you!

Re: Saturday report 2/3
Nice job Skunk...Apparently I was not on the same salmonid lake as you.
We only 2 flags on Saturday with no hookups. I think the fish were picking the bait up vertically toward the surface and pulling it off the hook. Damn smart fish. About 6 other guys out and I didn't see any other flags and the jig bite was non-existent.

Re: Saturday report 2/3
cool fish skunk glad you were able to get a couple of them in that weather. it's strange that the jiggin was so tough, were you jiggin shallow or deep? not even any perch or big sunnies willing to play?

Re: Saturday report 2/3
surprised he checked your tipups. I was stopped last week in the lot by dows. guy made small talk, checked my license and we parted ways. dodged a bullet I guess. can you setup 5 per licensed person or 5 per person? meaning if I drag 2 kids with me am I allowed 15 tipups?
