  1. Nice job Gunner. How fast you moving that jerkbait?
  2. John, I had the same problem with my Maxxum 80. Turns out that the foot switch is a magnetic switch and the contact got pushed down in the sleeve to where when the foot switch was pressed it was not making contact. If you take off the round foot switch plate you will see the contact down in the sleeve, if you touch it with a metal phillips blade and it engages the motor you will know is not making proper contact. You have to take it apart and push that contact back further up into the sleeve. It was a 5 minute job and mine is back to good. Chris
  3. Blue, Sounds like a pretty good day all-in-all. What were you getting the bass on?
  4. I am not a Musky guy, but this may help. http://www.missourimuskies.org/
  5. Can anyone give a "bass" guy a little help on how to catch a mess of crappie this weekend? Baits, depths, locations etc... Thanks Chris
  6. Hillbilly, We basically started on the Jake Creek side of Indian point and hit every main lake point and major secondary point on the north shore all the way back to Point 5. We found that the majority of the fish were not on the point, but between 50 and 100 yards into the cove. We sat anywhere between 25 and 35 feet of water and threw fish dr's on a shakey head. darn I love the Rock! Chris
  7. Carl and Sue were great hosts. We went ahead and booked our trip back there for last week of Apr. 2012. I am already getting anxious. The guys throwing spinnerbaits were using white or silver, they were behind the bushes and right up on the bank, the fish they were taking were mostly Kentuckies with some big (5+) largemouths and a handful of smallmouths. The guys throwing the finese worms deep were catching smallmouth almost exclusivly. I didnt have much luck topwater, but I also didnt try too hard.
  8. I hope to come over on Monday. I will be coming from Pomme, can someone reccomend a ramp? Thanks, Chris
  9. Has anyone been out for bass? Any reports?
  10. I am debating making the three hour drive to fish Pomme this weekend. Anyone have any words of advice??? Was anyone out this weekend? I will be fishing for bass and would sure appreciate any info. Thanks Chris
  11. Mopan, Any new updates? Thanks chris
  12. Trav, Dont feel alone, I fished about 8 hours this weekend and touched 1 fish. After fishing jigs for 5 hours with nothing, I picked up a spinnerbait and on the third cast hit a 3.5, I figured "here we go" but didnt get another the rest of the weekend. Chris
  13. Trav, I have fished grubs a couple times at Table Rock mostly for Smallmouth and Spots, but never tried it at Pomme, I dont know why. Are you typically scrubbing the bottom or counting down to a depth you have graphed fish at? I assume color selection is based on water color? Thanks Chris
  14. Whats the word on the construction work below the dam? Anyone hear when they are supposed to be complete?
  15. Has anyone been out lately? Is the water hard in the coves? Thinking about coming down next week, wondering if it is worth the trip. Thanks Chris
  16. Any updates on the dam work progress? Any word on a completion date?
  17. I got to fish Sat Sun and Monday this weekend. We had 30+ both Sat and Sunday mostly on the jig, very shallow on timber. The 20+ mph winds kept us prety much in the coves. Picked up a few crankbait and buzzbait fish, but the goto was the jig. Monday was a bit tougher with the total closer to 20. With as much wind as we had I was sure the spinnerbait bite would start, but had absolutly no luck. The nice thing is that now half of the fish are keepers and nearly a forth of the fish caught go over 15".
  18. Thanks Jbrant, what part of the lake were you fishing? Has the lake begun to turnover? I am really ready to get out this weekend. Chris
  19. Anyone been out for bass recently? Where would you start this weekend? Thanks Chris
  20. Good stuff. Thanks for the heads up. http://www.youtube.com/user/omegacustomtackle#p/a/14FCF3F51B1061EA/1/13Ads0QOW6k
  21. Anyone have a bass report from this week??
  22. Has any one on here fished this tourny? Any comments?
  23. Trav, Interesting thought. You are truely ate up with this hobby, I love it. You may wanna check with theh corp before doing this. Even though you are just "moving" the tires, they could consider it dumping when you add them to your reef. Chris
  24. Nice job! Anything you can share with us?
  25. I snagged a spinnerbait on the back wheel of a small bike. I was really hoping I would be able to reclaim several hundred dollars of lures that I have lost over the last few years but no luck yet.
