Seconded, where I got my Terrova. They're very fair.

Went last night and had one short and one barely legal. Found a couple nice crappie on brush but I didn't spend much time trying to find them. JME but the walleye bite seems to slow down during a full moon. Should get better soon.

Found them tonight as well. Pulled cranks around a long, shallow point in 15-18ft. Had one just over 22" a 20, a 17, and two that were just under 15. The wind seemed to pick up at dusk, and it was on like Donkey Kong. All pulling flickers and a wally diver. This was the only photo I took, had my hands full dealing with snags, tangles, and fish. Layed her down on the golden rule for a better pic, went to reach for my phone, and in one expert flop she went right over the gunnel. So that one got released.

There an app called Onxhunt that may be helpful. Shows property lines and owners.

I have seen it in some areas, but not in others. Where I have seen it, it was close to 30ft. I think the steady in/outflow has prevented it from forming.

If you are trying to advertise your guide service on this site, it is working! 👍 Found a few as well tonight, 7 shorts and 2 keepers. All pulling rogues and flickers in 16-18 feet. Seems to me that the walleye bite really picks up in and around a new moon. Waa catching them every pass, with doubles a couple times until the sun set, then nada. This was the only pic I took.

Any ~1a 12V DC wall wort will work. Dig through the bin at the thrift store, I'm sure you'll find one for pocket change. You'll have to clip the plug off and verify polarity with a multimeter first. Computer power supplies will work as well, although that's a little overkill and needlessly complicated for the task at hand. Alternatively you can probably go on Amazon or Ebay and buy a 12V power supply for ~10 bucks.

Gauge was probably leaking, or had way too long of a hose. If the Schrader valve is not placed close to the end of the hose, the volume of the hose adds to the combustion chamber volume, effectively lowering the compression ratio. It's why you get low readings when using an automotive gauge on a chainsaw. If it truly had compression in that range, I imagine there would be other symptoms.

I'm just a part timer, I run down there three days a week for a night class, in Hope's that I might someday earn an engineering degree. The only gripe I have so far is that the desks are pitiful. Even OTC has proper tables.

I get a touch over 3 with an 80lb Terrova. Check your batteries. With a 24V system, you're only as strong as the weakest battery. Trimming up the outboard helps a lot more than you might think as well, although things can get a little hairy if it's windy, without a "rudder" keeping the stern in check.

I just transferred to MSU this semester. Not sure what I think of the place yet.

A heat gun will help release the adhesive and make it easier to peel them off. A razor blade makes for a good scraper but can scratch the aluminum underneath. Once they are off you can use whatever solvent you want to get the goo off. 3M adhesive remover aerosol works pretty good. It is not cheap but a can goes a long ways.

Easiest would probably be Masters, Cedar Ridge, or Crabtree. Take 13 to Bolivar, go west on 32. Cedar Ridge and Masters are just past Fair play and Crabtree is a few miles up from there. Greenfield is just a few minutes closer.

Only made it on Saturday afternoon. One short and what I believe was another that I only caught a glimpse of. The crappie were cooperating much better, brought a few of those home for dinner. Pulling crankbaits, fooled around with BBs some too, but after getting hung for the third time and breaking a rod I went back to cranking. For me, they always seems to slow down some when a full moon is near, I have not been having nearly as much success as I was 2-3 weeks ago. This was on a flat, little sac arm. 16-20 feet.

Powertech SWC3R13PM70 3 blade prop for sale. Stainless, 13 pitch, 10.5 diameter. Comes with a 13 spline Mercury hub kit, but will likely fit many others with a different one. There is not a ding or scratch on it, it is like new. 120$ pickup or 135$ shipped anywhere. I make regular trips to Springfield for school.

Stall mats work pretty well, and they quiet things down a bunch. Not the lightest or cheapest thing out there though.

Usually I'm not fast enough and the fish is gone by the time I get a bait down there, or of they do stick around, they'll come up, sniff it, and take off. Every once in a while it does work for me, wstching a fish come up and hammer your bait on the graph is better than any drug. I usually take everything he makes with a grain of salt, since he's in remote Canada a lot of times. It ain't that easy here, at least that's what I tell myself to feel better.

I did the same thing on mine. Didn't pay any attention when I put them on. As long as they're legible from a distance, that's all that matters. Some of the more nosey WPs may use it as an excuse to check me out, but I generally don't have anything to hide. If you do want to redo it, you can go to the DMV and get new decals for 11$.

Got whooped again by the walleyes. Goose egg. Was running bottom bouncers for a couple hours with nothing but a drum.and bass. I switched over to cranks and found these. Been a while.

Excellent. Points or flats? Maybe that's why I've been striking out, been fishing too deep. I guess that kinda makes sense, was catching them pretty good when the water was high, but haven't done well since they dropped it. They haven't moved at all, but I did, thinking they moved deeper.

It is pretty clear, probably 3-4ft visibility. I'm not a bass Fisher so I cant comment on that.

I could barely find them at all. Went there last night for the first time in over a month. Found some dinks in 18-20 feet on brush, and one keeper trolling in 20ft. There is shad everywhere. Seems hard to get them to focus on a bait in those conditions.

Rooster tails will be excellent for whites here in a couple weeks once they start grouping up and chasing shad. On Stockton, try the flats northeast of the island by Masters. You usually only get about a 30 minute window before dark, but you can easily catch a limit in that time when conditions are right. There are several brush piles in and around Masters cove, and I've caught more smallies around there than anywhere else on the lake. Stockton is always hit or miss, unless you have a lot of prior experience (have an idea where the fish are and when), you have to cover a lot of water. Crappie are really scattered right now and hardly anybody is catching them, it will get better once the water cools off and they start to group together on brush piles. One thing to try is trolling deep diving cranks like Shad raps or Flicker shads. Boring as heck but you can cover a lot of water and get into some great multi-species action. I've seen several reports from guys in kayaks doing it successfully.

Seems like the bite has slowed down a lot from when they first started pulling water. Fished Friday and today with only one 15" walleye and a few other species. Nothing really noteworthy. Caught some bait too. Boat traffic was insane. Crabtree ramp was full at some point today.

I don't know if I am. Trolled around some on Friday, got hung up more times in one afternoon than I have all year. Where'd all the dang water go?
