How has the crappie action on Wood been lately? Is there a consistent bite? I'm either hitting Rush or Wood on Saturday. Would like a change of scenery from Rush, but I know I can catch crappies on Rush. Are people driving trucks on Wood?

Thanks!

Webs-

Thanks for the reply. Is there an obvious "community" spot to get started at? I haven't fished on Wood in a number of years. Also, can you sort through the smaller fish for keepers or were they all toss backs?

I have just one afternoon to put the wife on some fish. I have Rush figured out, but I've heard that bite as cooled off. Did decent on Rush the weekend of the 5th. Just trying to decide between the two lakes. Or, maybe I'll venture to Yellow.

You,ll see were all the house,s are at from the landing. We did,nt run into any thing of any size but the year before the crappies were keepable.I guess from what we caught and seen i woud,nt make the drive from Cottage Grove to there. Maybe try Centerville lots of crappies and a few decent sunnies straight out from Waterworks landing.

Wood lake contest this weekend and the bite is on in front of the big island (you'll see the houses) there jumpin out of the hole. Round was a bust not a single fish worth keeping but there were 19+ trucks looking this weekend.

FYI

On 2/23 from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm there is going to be an ice fishing contest on Trade lake The contest is for the Grantsburg HS band trip. I don't think it is that organized or has significant prizes but any time out fishin is worth it and its for a good cause. CYA on the ice

    • 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.
