I know people have been out because I have been seeing plenty of boats on the road.

I have been mainly jumping back and forth from the 81 ponds to Lake Sinai. The 81 ponds have been kicking out smaller walleyes and some dandy white bass. The white bass have been active during the afternoon and walleyes pick up towards evening. Casting shad raps has been the best producer for me.

Lake Sinai has been rather hit or miss. One night might only produce few walleyes while the next might make getting a limit real easy. The perch are starting to pick up in the 20 foot range. Slip bobbers with crawlers or leeches in shallow and leadcore and shad raps in the deep water have been the top producers.

Although I have not been on Thompson for a while I know that it is still kicking out fish. Not the numbers it was a few weeks ago but the fish biting.

Any one that has any reports good or bad please let us know.

I was on Thompson on 7/17. It was so windy I kept waiting for Doroty and Toto to pass overhead. Leeches were the only thing walleyes would hit. We caught some by the silo on the east side and just south of the west boat ramp near the flooded barn. From 10-16' depths. Surfboards would have come in handy on the north end. good luck

Just got back from 4 days in the great state of SD. 3 of us fished Lynn lake and did very well. Also heard that the big lake (forgot name) just south of Waubay has been doing well. Talked to some that fished Buffalo lake for gills and only caught small fish. Good luck fishing and thanks to the fine people at the sport mart in Grenville for their Hospitality

    • 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.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
    • The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
    • It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
