I caught 7 keeper crappies 10 - 13.5" and kept a dozen nice gills and 3 big perch. Caught alot of small perch today. 5" any where we walked on the lake with 4" of snow on top. We fished 8' to 16' best depth was 15'. Crappie were riding at about 10' along with the nicer gills. You had to keep it off the bottom on that lake or you'll get nailed with dink perch. Not a great trip as far as bluegill action but it was great to use my MarCum and we can fish close with Vexilars and no problems 1 I.R. off, 1 on I.R and one on I.R. plus one no problems. I had the zoom on 10' when I was fishin 15' and it was awesome. Funny seeing your jig and fish on both sides of the screen. Gotta train my eyes a little more to stay on the left side. What the zoom feature allowed me to do was keep the bait away from the smaller fish and the decent gills and crappies when they popped on the zoom I thought they were bass or pike, awesome machine. I am glad it's compatable with Vexilars that was a big issue.
When I put them up at the cabin a week ago, and these where the windows ones I immediately had 3 male Orioles on them.
Then haf as many as 7 hummers on or hovering around the same feeder. After the 4th day we filled all 3 windows feeders daily, they were nutz.
Not the best pic because of the screen but I've never had 4 hummingbirds at the same feeder at one time. Alot of the time there is 1 and then another comes and chases the one away. What happens at your hummingbird feeders?
