  1. I caught 10 stripers Monday but Tuesday and Today I was locked in on the crappie so not looking for anything else. They are around I have had many reports of them but for me the freezer is full of striper and not of crappie so the little fish need to come home Try for the stripers in 2 to 6ft of water along flats they are surprisingly shallow in the morning then moving out to 20ft when the sun comes up. Walleye are all over the upper river arms, I had many reports of limits from War Eagle arm but you had to wade through tons of whites. This weeks report is going to be fun to do.
  2. Trophy they COULD enforce it but do not... The law says you must be responsible for your wake and if you wake another boat you are violating it. If you swamp it or cause injury it could even be a felony. They just need to sit up there and nail people.
  3. This is just a heads up the last three days have seen unbelievable crappy fishing. The majority of fish are from 1ft to 14ft bottom depths suspending in 1ft to 6ft off banks with ledges present. ( Sight casting to many of them ) Use 1/16th ounce heads and your favorite Bobby Garlands and slowly swim it back to you. Park your boat at the edge of casting distance or you will spook them and shut the bite down. 52 Degree's is the Magic water Temperature. Last 3 days Monday Tuesday Wednesday

  7. Guessing purely but that looks like what happens when you run the Upper-white in fog or low light and your boat meets a bluff wall.
  8. Simple bring your own boat....Buy brooder minnows... Launch at Rocky Branch state park.... put them out behind the boat from 10 to 20ft slow troll them at .3 to .5mph and head toward Point 5. You will probably catch walleye and stripers... Stay in water under 30ft deep for the multi-species potential. Also don't overlook the crappie opportunities that time of year.
  9. I have been craving Crappie and was determined to get them. Success is so sweet and so is crappie in a Hollandaise Sauce Fished docks with Bobby Garlands, I ran from Prairie Creek up to the Dollar Hole, Long day lots of miles but well worth it.
  10. Guys I am constantly working on (Species And Lake Specific Information And Other Tips And Tricks) ( top of this page ) and if you have links for it, tips and tricks shoot me a PM so I can add them. Thanks
  11. Lance welcome to my world, I had 4 hybrids on at one time last year and was hooked on spider rigging from then on. But what a mess A couple things I have done to prevent some of the hassle is, Using circle hooks when live baiting, the stronger hooks don't straighten out ( negative is they don't and you will loose the rig ). When fishing stained water I have gone up to 10lb line Main and leader, when in clear water I still use 4lb. Arkie Lure has a new spider-rig set-up im going to try this year that looks sweet and the price is great. Last thing is a no brainer that I felt like a fool for not thinking about earlier. I have multiple rod holders on my boat and when a double happens I fight the first fish and second one I move to a further back rod holder so not to mess up the entire rig. It is a lot of fun but forces you to think way outside the box and keep your head on a swivel.
  12. JD in all honesty either and be prepared to move around a lot.
  13. As Phil said in another post, READ THE FORUM the question may have been answered... and in this case there is multiple topics and threads on the question currently going.
  14. You better buy a BUNCH more... and I do mean a bunch.
  15. Walleye will go way past there in the right year
  16. Clay, I haven't heard but my guess is clearing by now. Lakes up and currents running decent down lake so it should be fishable
