Yeah, it will have an effect with them pulling the lake back down. Any wind, waves, or current present will take the floating debris up against a bank where it may get stuck on until the water comes...

I have a whole bunch of different brands, such as PICO, Bandit, Strike King, Storm, Norman, Rapala, Eppinger, and others.

I've always thought that having a closed face reel on the down side made it less likely for you to cast the whole rod/reel out into the water, than when using such a reel on the up side. Reason...

My condolences.

I've used Lunker City Fin-S Fish 2.5" forked tail minnows ... many years ago ... and had pretty good success with them.

I only do "one pole jigging" with a 12' BGJP ... which is what I use for jig flipping with Livescope. If I were to be one pole jigging other than with the Livescope, I'd probably use my Sam Heaton...

That would depend on time of year & region of the country, as well as size/depth of that particular lake.

As evidenced by this graph - there is no real difference in temp at depth "at that...

Looks like the rain & warmer temps are starting to have an effect. Even so, as evident in this pic, the ice isn't completely gone ... yet !!

Might take a little longer than the next few days to get the ice sheets melted off Green, and probably T-ville too. :dono

YAY !! :woohoo :HandsClapping

I'm pretty much a yellow cornmeal only kinda guy, but I do sometimes shake in a bit of "Slap Ya Mama" Cajun Seasoning.

I get mine made by Grousefly ...

Grousefly is Paul Mullins of P&S Custom Tackle (ph# 606-642-3167 ... email is [email protected] ... or PM him from this site).
I will warn you ... he...

I forgot to add .... I started out using barrel sinkers. I put them on the main line, then a large hole bead, & then a duolock snap. They worked just fine, except for the fact that I would have to...

I use 2oz for cranks & 1oz for jigs ... The 2oz trolling weights (torpedo shape) came from Crawdads Fishing Tackle & the 1oz came from Cabela's (Offshore Angler brand). I also have 4oz trolling...

Never used a rope ... just always backed in, got out of truck & unhitched the boat, climbed in and backed boat off trailer ... then parked boat at dock & walked back & parked the truck. Got a...

Yeah ... your area got more ice ... I just got snow last night (on top of the ice & sleet from the days before).

Actually you can "add" Livescope (there's a port for it marked Panoptix) .... But if you have the transducer for the sonar AND the Livescope plugged in, you'll have to use a split screen or switch...

He was referring to the Helix 7 you mentioned as having a good screen image.

About 2" of sleet has fallen here. The trees are still iced up, never having melted off since the freezing rain from days ago. Just hunkering down & waiting for the next round to blow through.

Sleeting all day here ... accumulation of 2"+ of sleet in some locales. More of the same on the way, plus some snow & freezing rain possibly added to the mix for the rest of the week.

I think the "best" measuring device to have is whichever one the local F&W guys use to measure your catch. In my case, that's a Golden Rule ... which is what I have & use, and is one of the first...

I only use #1 & #5 ... and both for casting, Pushing, and "flipping" (Livescope fishing) ... and every once in awhile I may even Longline a single rod with them. #1 is always with a plastic body,...
