Today I made the trek up to Lake Bussey, a Mississippi River backwaters area on the North edge of Guttenburg, IA, I arrived to find a full parking lot. The promise of better weather really brought out the iceheads. The best bite is on the east side and the folks over there don't take well to visitors. Sooo, Like most, I treked the 1/2+ mile accross the lake.
The place I like to go is another1/4 mi. North. :rolleyes: I ended up with shy of the 25 limit of gills. Only 8 were what I would call bigguns. I never did make use of the shack and heater I took along.:rolleyes: It was just too nice out with a high of 42. I"ll try to post some pictures I took. On the way out , I stopped and chatted for a bit with a personable young lad that had already joined up before I got home and in the house from cleaning fish.:D Mike
