Fishing Magician-

We need to head up there soon with luvenlifeguy. Get him away from the kid for a little while. i just got a boat and am itching to get up there for the night bite. I also dont see you guys signed up for hockey this season. I guess you are getting a little old to run with the young guns. We will have to meet up soon. I am always looking for another person to get up to the pond with

I've been sneaking out a bit lately and have found some good Walleyes after dark. Here are a couple from my most recent outing...

This was a 27"er that came off a Glass Perch Husky Jerk. I was using the 8'6" Lighting rod and a the new 5500 Line Counter from Abu Garcia. That reel is pretty sweet and handled the fish beautifully.

The next fish was caught on the Clown colored Husky Jerk. It is also 27" but a bit thinner than the first fish.

I look forward to seeing more nice Walleye pictures from everyone and hopefully I'll have a chance to share a few more fish as well. laugh.gif

Good luck,

Here's one from a new lake last night. I caught this fish on a deep diving Berkley Frenzy Perch pattern. The 5500LC reel did a nice job of keeping my bait at the correct depth. Fireline was a must as it helped alert me of weeds or leaves that came in contact with the crankbait.

Here is another smaller fish that fell for the same tactics...

I know what you are saying about the different colored Walleyes. What I can gather is that darker colored Walleyes are deep or weed oriented fish. The more pale Walleyes are likely suspending fish or spend some more time in shallow water. Another factor in the coloring of Walleyes can be water clarity in a lake/river or bottom content that they relate to.

Either way they are neat looking fish! laugh.gif

Good luck,

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
