That sounds like good news to me! But I would be curious about what the cause was too. Thanks for sharing.

So is the boat ramp closed at Engineers Point because they are working on it? Or is it still accessible there? Thanks.

Ha! I had the exact same trouble with mine as soon as I put them on. Don’t feel bad. I hear you!

Wally Diver by Cotton Cordell? Gotta be one of the best plugs of all time.

Green speckled craw Bandit 300. Probably tough to replicate though.

I still have this unit but have switched to Humminbird and have no use for it. Need to sell. Will let it go for $1,500 TYD. Brand new head unit and transducer works just fine.

Unit comes with transom mount SI transducer and hardware.

I have for sale a new 12" Simrad NSS12 Evo 2 head unit. I took out of the box just to take pictures. Please message me any questions. The average retail price is $2,399. I am asking $2,000.00 for...

Heard another report of some being spotted dead up river a few miles late last week.

A friend of mine sent me these pics of some dead carp from the New Johnsonville area that they saw today. They said there were “hundreds”. Just curious if anyone else had seen this in the last few...

There’s been times when I’ve seen that same ratio of 10:1 small fish to keepers around Johnsonville but I just have not seen that this year. Just looked through notes on 7 days this year and caught...

Great rods. I’ve got 8s, 9s, and 14s. I use them to cast jigs, vertical jig, pull cranks, spider rig, and longline. They are tough and will take the abuse. You just can’t beat SCR!

So sorry to hear this news. Prayers sent for all involved. I have two small girls that aren’t in school yet and scares me to think I have to let them go soon!

Was curious if anyone has seen any evidence of a shad kill around New Johnsonville with the temps as low as they’ve been and the ice. Haven’t been since before Christmas and was thinking about going...

Got a chance to meet Ed when I was over that way last summer. Great guy with top of the line products and service! Staying so busy he doesn’t have as much time to fish!

Were you trolling outside the main channel over the flats there? How deep? I would think you could catch some fish in that area around mouth of Birdsong. QUOTE=Coach B;3497150]I fished Birdsong to...

Great haul! Good work guys.

Man those are some beautiful fish. Good haul guys!

I can attest. The current was sucking the secondary channel markers almost completely under!

Nice report! Jumping carp getting thick up the river too. Looked like they were chasing shad today but could've been green carp some of the time.

Awesome. Very cool story!

I use a #12 eagle claw snap swivel. Mine may be smaller than a lot of guys but not sure. Change out colors quick!

Yea, me too. I just couldn't believe that it wasn't operator error somewhere! Haha. Yea my reels have that tension adjustment knob for free spooling. I think its a live bait feature mostly for...

Thank goodness for our friends here! I'm in good shape now Snubby. I really appreciate that tip!

You can shut the clicker off the Shakespeare or the Magda? I've tried every way I know to shut it off the Shakespeare. I even called their service dept today and they said it couldn't be turned off...

Do the Okuma Magda 15's have a constant clicking sound upon retrieval? I picked up some Shakespeare ATS 15s this spring and they don't have an option to switch off the clicking sound during the...

I'd be curious to know how much the plants like Two Rivers Fisheries and the others are paying netters for their carp haul. I read an article about a processer on the Illinois river which paid...

Great info. What year was this article written?

Saw several silvers washed up on the bank this morning and a few floating up around New Johnsonville. There is definitely something going on! Still seeing surface activity from the carp too. Didn't...

This is more good news! I'm up river from Danville. Going in the morning and will report back. Have seen a few dead and sick carp but nothing like shad kill numbers. Just one here and one there.
