Thanks guys! That's a lake we typically bring minnows with just because of that fact. A jig and a minnow can out fish any other bait we throw at them on certain days on that lake. Hopefully get out this weekend. Look for another post Sunday night!

Got out on the water yesterday with a good friend.  The numbers and size were incredible.  We found all our fish on midlake structures.  Rocks and outside weed edges were the ticket.

Went out Saturday morning and braved the cold.   The fish didn't seem to mind either.   Found them on a 8' shallow flat with plenty of green cabbage.   Small Tungsten jig with Maki plastics were the k

Had a phenomenal day out on the water yesterday.  Big Bluegills are on the chew.   We found all our fish on the inside weed line in about 6-11 feet of water.   All fish were caught on a hairjig with a

Not a bad weekend of fishing for this neck of the woods. Fishing derby with family and friends Saturday. Great turn out by the way! That evening we hit the same lake as the previous post to. In 18fow, fish were somewhat finicky. Came in singles/doubles and would slowly make their way to the bait. We managed to ice a decent number of crappies in the 6 pack and did not move at all really. Jig and minnow was good to me while others stuck with tungsten and plastics. Both seemed to produce around the same ammout of fish. End of a great day! Bright and early this morning  we ventured out on a body of water that had been calling our name for sometime now. In search of BIG pannies we started the drilling process of finding these fish. After a BUNCH of holes we found some fish. Not exactly what we had hoped but we found fish. Tungsten and a variety of plastics were the ticket out there, in depths from 20-12fow. Being mobile was key as the fish were also throughout the day. Fun weekend! Have a look!

Found some decent crappies and gills over the weekend. Big schools of fish showed up on the vex after about a 20 holes search. Set up the 6 pack and had pretty steady action throughout the day. Found em suspended in 18 fow. Tungsten jigs tipped with our favorite plastics or spikes seemed to be what they liked. Crappies were very aggressive and would shoot up though the school and just annihilate your bait! While the gills were slow moving and were very soft lipped. Huge marks would show up on the vex and scare them away for a bit but as soon as they left they would come back. We figure big bass or pike. A LOT of fish were caught in this half day of fishing. Here's the bigger ones of the day. Crappies are 13 n some change and the gills were just shy of 10. Still looking to break that mark before ice out. Have a look!

      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…

      By Crow Hunter · Posted

      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.

      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.

      We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
