Sunday night went fishin out at Zelma with a buddy, was pretty good fishing the whole time we were there, lotsa pike biting, i saw a few over 6 pounds, i just caught little ones but was still pretty exciting.
Later on as we were leaving a few guys were starting to catch some nice walleyes on the west dam with pickerel rigs
Anybody else go to Zelma recently?

How long of a drive is it to Zelma from stoon

its less than an hour southeast of saskatoon, if you google map it you'll probably be able to find it

but if you cant just drive east from Allan, its about 10-15 mins from there

Fished Zelma and Bradwell a couple weeks back. Fishing was really good, got about 10 in about 4 hours split between the two. Storm wildeyes (the perch ones) seemed to be the hot ticket.

Were you catchin walleyes or pike at Zelma?

All pike, we couldn 't find the walleye

there were guys catching walleyes on pickeral rigs with minnows, some guys were using nightcrawlers

they really dont start biting till after 7pm it seems

went out to zelma last night and got skunked

to make things worse there were lots of people catching fish, even my friends managed a small walleye and a couple of pike

minnows were the way to go apparently, all i had was crawlers

some friend they are, not sharing working bait, tisk tisk tisk. for shame.

well they guys that had the working bait i've never met before
me and my friends brought crawlers, and the one pickerel was the only bite he had all night

my other buddy gave up on rigs and crawlers and caught his pike on black and green spinnerbaits

ow ya, I had no idea Zelma had walleye, I have only picked up hammer-handles there.

they are definately harder to find than they are at blackstrap thats for sure

Whats the boat launch like at zelma?

Haven't been there for about a week or so but it seems to be not bad, lots of boats are usually on the water

i don't know how people drive an hour to a lake where the only fish to catch are usually pike.
