They work! The bite was a little tough last weekend. Started off with plastics and caught a few, but also missed a lot. Switched over to his jigs and tried both colors. They were swallowing...

Even if the crappie are slow, the catfish are hitting. I’ve only been out once this year and it seems like a typical year to me...tons of small fish and might luck into a handful of keepers.

Generally you would need to drop down in pitch to achieve the same RPM when going from aluminum to SS. Being your intent is to drop RPM anyway, you may want to try the same pitch. Once you get the...

That may very well be possible. But, if the spawning areas are lacking, why are the spawns so good (evidenced by the 50 billion 6'' fish)? Personally, I think there are too many fish in the lake. ...

It's pretty easy to do yourself. I've done a couple boats with excellent results. It will take an entire day, but wet sanding, polishing with ProTec products, sealant, and waxing will get any boat...

For sale is my 1997 Ranger R80 (18') with a 150 hp Mercury EFI. It was recently serviced and ready to go. It will come with a custom Ranger cover, all boater safety equipment, a 2 person tube and...

It was tough fishing for sure. Once the wind died down we finally found some fish. The amount of short fish this year was depressing, almost like we were back in Ohio. 235446

I think John has the LCP, it's a nice little carry gun. The Shield and LC9 are also very nice. I prefer a 9mm as ammo seems a lot easier to find. A few places around me seem to have a hard time...

Yep, all the big fish are dead.

I've been thinking the same thing since they put the size limit on, the fish have to get bigger. Unfortunately it seems like 80% of the fish are still 9". Personally, I was glad some of the crappie...

I haven't been out much, but the fishing has been very slow. I hope to make it out tomorrow also, I'll be in a red ranger. Be careful if you go out there by yourself, make sure you wear your pfd.

I just did the same thing Herb, but I replaced the blower motor also, both for under $80. Very easy job.

Sold

I'm selling this HB that came in my boat. It has internal gps and 2D. It will come with the mount and power cord. I don't have the transducer but it will take the XNT 9 20. It's a nice little unit...

...until the sailboats come out. Luckily there weren't many Saturday, but the bass guys were out in full force. We had a couple guys get within 20' of the boat.

Yes they are. The first time I scanned those I thought the same thing. If those are the ones I'm thinking I normally get some on cranks around there.

You're not kidding, the fishing was very tough this year. Lots of small fish and the average size was down. We averaged 8-10 keepers each day, with a couple 14+" each day. 200560

It sounds like you're doing just fine if those 15 fish are 10+''. We have had many 100-200 fish days, but 90% of those always seem to be under 10''. I'd gladly settle for less numbers on that lake if...

Has anyone else been catching muskie at EF lately? I've caught at least one each of the last four trips out. They are all about the same size (13-15''). Every one has came off a jig. Those have to be...

Way to go John. I'm glad you and Ken got one. When I got that text at 8:00 my wife asked who it was...I said "John must have gotten a good one!".

The areas of the lake I have been fishing I haven't noticed any difference in the water quality. People are still swimming, skiing, etc. I haven't noticed if the advisory signs are still up or not....

What are you hoping to get out of the trip? The Ohio isn't exactly the place to go if you're looking for a trophy fish. There's plenty of fish to be had, but the size is definitely lacking. The...

Nightprowler makes a quality product, but so do many other members on this site. GrouseFly, RonDon, and Litewirehooker all make really good jigs that I've used.

Bass Pro. I think Crappiemax and I might be going, not sure what time the seminar is though.

The bass at KY lake are unreal. We have a really hard time keeping them off the minnows, I would think that crankbaits would be just as bad. Most days you'll average 20-40 crappie and 50+ bass, all...

This is the first time in my life that I've seen the river freeze over. I was on the 41st floor of our building Tuesday watching barges dodging icebergs. It's a pretty neat sight, but I'm ready for...

It was a good time out there yesterday. We had the lake to ourselves and caught some nice fish. We didn't get any big fish, but had plenty of eaters.

Happy Birthday, hope you made it back out...

Nice fish. I've been wondering how big they are getting. I still wish they would have stocked eyes instead. I got spooled up there trolling 2 weeks ago, couldn't even chase the fish down with the...
