i haven't caught a ton of fish on crankbaits before, what kind of a retrieve is best? slow and steady, stop and go?
I think it might work on washington or union, because there are places where the water is murkier like banks lake.

Well I start out stop and go, slow and steady, then I might speed up or, I might stop for a long time and then go with a suspending crank.Just toy around with it and let the fish tell you what they want.At banks lake they wouldnt hit the pause and go they wanted the crank fast! It was crazy!
I have heard that the fish at banks are very agressive and that by burning white spinner baits they will tear em up.
Now...that's a report lol. Gongrats on the fish CK14. I love it out there early in the year.
I knew there would be a few walleye hanging out at Alder Fill. They're biting up at the headwaters of Crab Creek at night too.
did you make it over to moses slab?
fishin isn't a sport, it's a way of life.
A motto I live by. :D
go dawgs!!
I wish lol. I'm so backed up on work that I may not get out until early May. We have old family friends that live in Moses so I can get update reports:p. With any luck I'll make it over for the spawn.
Just got back from potholes area a couple minutes ago. All I gotta say is thank you CK because otherwise it would have been a disaster. Got to potholes and talked to the guys at mardon who said it was REALLY slow. Headed to hutchinson and started catching and releasing crappie and bluegill until I felt sorry for them:D
Woke up today and talked to a few people who told us it wasnt worth the gas or time to go try for walleye in the potholes. Headed to Hutchinson and it was pouring rain, didnt get any better so we roughed it and went and caught some more, decided to take a couple home for the frying pan, because thats what the locals were doing. Pulled in some fat perch too. Decided to head back today because the weather wasnt worth the stay. Its about time I got rid of my skunkin. That lake seems to be loaded with fish!
i'm glad i was able to help you catch some fish. thats to bad about the weather . it was like that on my last day over there. did you try any bass fishing? i know its hard to go bass fishing when you're catching crappie and bluegill on almost every cast :D

We caught a couple bass, but your right, I couldnt make myself specifically target them when the other guys were biting so well.
