I've never caught a whitefish but always wanted to. I never knew how, but it looks like you do it from a pier by getting them drunk and picking up the floaters?

Scout all you have to do is bring your favorite alcoholic beverage to the Muskegon pier around the becoming of November and cast 1/2 or 3/4oz sweedish pimple or your favorite jigging spoon and jig it back to you.

In St. Joe, we just fish a single egg, or a waxworm on the bottom for them

I remember them days. It's a riot. We used to hunt all day opening day of gun and then hit the pier all day the next day and they would be thick.

Definitely a good time. I have gone around Turkey day the last two years and we did pretty well. Could of really hammered them the night we went out last year but the wind almost blew you in!! Fish were thick but it was tough fishing. I will add some pics.
