    Work with a guy who shore fishes a lot including ‘tonka-he did well in March but now is waiting for warmer water. I was out yesterday on a lake that has a great shallow bite that was empty yesterday even with the sun heating the shallows-should get good soon though.

    get aquarium salt or kosher, keep them cold and keep it dark no food needed. change the water but make sure the temp of what your adding matches the rest of the water-fast changes in temp of even a few degrees is a killer. You can set it up like an aquarium but that is a whole other deal.

    Scheels stuff is good enough and not too spendy.

    The RK case had an effect-also Mark Ferman who said many racist things moved and/or manipulated evidence. So much evidence against the JUICE this manipulation was not necessary and actually worked against the prosecution.The defense was able to make the case that a conspirancy was at play.
    Back to Rodney King, all of those police officers with RK lying on the ground and those guys just wailing on him-they all went free. Black people had described such incidents before but it was not believed-What changed? Video. It had been happening. Does that make it ok to be happy that a man who killed 2 people goes free? NO! The cheers of those who were happy for the OJ verdict conviced me that we are living in a very divided country.

    Best bar was The Quarry (aka Jardins) in Port Wing Wisc. The back of the bar was all windows looking out onto Lake Superior, little restaraunt attached, good food, pool table. They also owned a hotel right next door,
    place had it all. People love lakes, makes you wonder why more bars up north do not have a lake view. Last time I was up there the place was torn down, other people where there too, mourning.

    Thanks-how far do you stretch in feet right and left?
    Think I just need to get back in the habit of using it.

    8# P-line coplymer for the spinner. Yo Zuri would probably be good too. Little more expensive but its line, line is important.

    Talked with a pro who fished Rainey, lake is known for smallies-when they fill out they look for a largie in a bay for a bump, in some lakes they may even find a smallie bump in a warm weedy backwater, surprising right?

    Greenie is pretty adaptable, if their are weeds they are probably in there. Some of my nicest fish have been caught in <6. As long as they have oxygen they are fine.

    Like someone said, do not be afraid to ask for a spot-EVERYONE here has been handed a spot (but my deal is different, it was My cousin blah, blah blah,) And yes like me you have tried lakes with zero intel. This is a community site ask away-you can ask me for a gold bar and I will say; ‘no’ with no hate.

    Get what you requested, if you put it on your credit card ask them for help-they would love to help you. My 2-cents for anyone reading this, put big ticket stuff on your CC they have a great consumer protection ethic for anyone ELSE taking advantage of you.

    I like my 14 light Jon. I would recommend the light version. I put mine on portage wheels made for a canoe-works great but takes 2 people to put it on. I have seen people use stabalizers on canoes, even saw some teenagers use watercooler jugs succesfuly to stabalize their canoe.

    JJ-Do they know what a ‘camera flash’ is?!
    As JJ would be the first to tell you for crappies if they are anywhere near your bait any time in the dark they will see it because their low light vision is so good (dogs have great low light vision too but that’s off topic) Could it pull them in from further away? maybe, if they are in the mood to move. Some swear that a dull green glow is the ticket and not bright anything-some swear by red. Could be that it is like rattle lures, sometimes attractive sometimes repulsive.

    Picking up the size and speed was effective for me last year starting in about August.

    They look great! These look a little like Wiggle Worts, have you tried them? Just trying to figure out how I can use cranks for crappies-WWs come in a 2” and the bill looks similiar.
    Thanks

    Sometimes like when it has an orange flavor-so I’ll take a standard recipe and add zest &/or Grand Marnier. yum

    Randy do you have a favorite lipless? Do you always use rattle baits?

    I keep home-made Chai Tea in the fridge at work, in the afternoon-that bit of caffein & honey gives me a boost, plus mine is delicious.

    They usually do not even give you a spare tire! Most put more miles on a trailer than a boat, when we buy we should ask more about the trailer.

    All those people posting about winterizing sleds and blowers jinxed us-wet snow is great for the topsoil which is more like ‘topdust’ right now, that’s a plus.

    Both are too big and clunky for right now, in August they will hit 3″ stuff trolled at 1mph-these are 1.75″ and I may try them in July. I know for sure pike will like. laugh
