Well the boat touched open water for a few minutes. The lake was down 14 feet since last winter when I was out there.

We couldn't get the boat to float off it was way to shallow. Temperatures were also at lovely 5 below zero with winds gusting up to 25mph. I stuck one fish off shore it felt good to stick a fish.

We still had a good trip out there I will be checking on the water levels for march.

We release 99% of the smallies we catch and that was over 800 last year. The smaller 12"er's are fabulous. We were able to Fish the mississippi well into January catching 4 pounders, not to mention walleyes too. If your into the soft water fishing there are many areas to fish on the river, from boat or shore.
good fishin

You got my full attention. The mighty MISS sounds to good to be true for mid-winter blues. Where at? Hows the fishing now until April. It's not froze?

I here open water and I'm just like my lab when he knows were going to go and shoot some rooty's.

I would love to here all the info needed to take a weekend trip. Greatly appreciated!!!


JP that would be fun we could go test out some of the Gary Baits!

Guy's!!! someone find smallie some open water for everyones mental health at Northeast. Every time I stop in for a morning cup of coffee this kid is bouncing of the walls to hit some open water. He's like a high strug pointer sitting in a dog crate right in the middle of a rooster pen.
Please, find this guy some open water...
By the way, if you in the area stop in at Northeast in the morning for a cup, if Kent is there then walk down to McDonalds and get the coffee, he makes the strongest coffee in the world...

Hang in ther Smallie.
My wife is ready to send me south until I find an open lake. My kids don't think it's fun any more to have beanie-babies pitched at 'em on the end of a piece of yarn and have Dad yell "Fish On!" when they grab it. The dogs, however, might get a hoot out of me trolling one of the cats through the living room.

A friend of mine went there this weekend and pounded the walleye’s. The only thing he complained about was that the smallies would hit it if you got down in the rocks. Sounds like it might be right up your alley.

On another note I have my rod in my hand at night and flip and pitch to various things in the living room, entryway, and even to the sink in the kitchen when I watch TV. Try this and it will help. I’d try the toilet, but if the wife caught me reeling that dirty water back across the carpet it might be the end for me.

Give the river a try, but keep in mind that that current in a real force and it takes some weight to keep on the bottom. I’m not supposed to tell but try up by the ****. Good luck.

    • Yeah it was a beatdown
    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.
