congrats,pretty cool

Hey Dan ,congrats, I was there yesterday, just downstream from the bridge at Tecumseh. No joy for us. Did see a boat with 3 guys all had their limit of stripers ,whites and hybrids .Also a six pound walleye. They were using minnows and drifting them on the bottom up against the bank.Really shallow up there,have to be carefull.I don't fish for whites so wasn't really interested,We jigged and slow trolled crawler rigs for eyes .Prob. will go back thur.,think I'll go downlake from Udall and try again. good luck,Mike

Nice,Glad you had a nice day

I googled how to tell the diff.. Looks like I've got 5 of the Magnums and 3 of the reg. size that are pre Rapala. Think I'll look into e-bay. Mike

How do you tell if they are pre rapala?. I have some from I think the 80s Mike

You can buy the Hot spot maps a lot cheaper online (ebay) .I use the Hot spot and the lake master charts in my Humminbird.The lake master software is awesome. Mike

Good on you,Happy for you Mike

I always sharpened my own untill they would'nt shim up anymore ,then I would have them rebuilt,much cheaper than a new impeller. Also, you can fix those wear rings on the sleeve your self. In the picture it looks like your impeller isn't shimmed up enough. I lived in Alaska and used to guide on some of the rivers,I've had a lot of experience sucking gravel. I used to carry 3 impellers and two sleeves plus an extra foot. If I can help you in any way just send me a private message Mike

Good for you,Happy for you

Good for you ! Thanks for the video. I think I'm going to try Norfork in Feb. for Walleyes. I"m resupplied with Bink's and ready to go. Thanks again,Mike

Thanks for the video

Thank you,I have some of those but never thought to use them like you do. Thanks again Mike

This is very similar to what I do. What is the black piece that your line is running through. Thanks Mike

Glad you could get out

good for you,Thanks for the report

Way to go. I'm heading back up tomm. for 3 or 4 days

Thanks for the report.

They have a shallow water combo of 8- 1/4 oz. spoons for 27.00 + free shipping. You can pick your own colors.Just put it in the notes section what colors you want. Also I found out you really need a swivel on the 1/4 oz ones, they don't come with one normally but ask Kevin in the notes to put swivels on and he will fix you up.The have top notch customer service. https://bink-spoons.myshopify.com/collections/shallow-water-walleye-combos Mike

Me too Dan,I just ordered 8 more of the 1/4 ounce.

we were casting and jigging it back

My daughter in law caught this,was her first walleye.I'm only in the pic as I wanted a pic. with the Bink's spoon in it's mouth. 1:30 in the afternoon in 4 feet of water. Thanks for all the help,you guys are great. Mike

Thanks for the reply guys.I did'nt find any walleyes till wed. afternoon. I fished the points and creek channels with no luck, 20 t0 30 feet deep.Wed. afternoon about 1o'clock we found some jigging Bink's spoon( Thank's again Dan Hufferd.) I quess I'll have to forget all I thought I knew about Walleye's as we were finding them in 5 to 10 feet of water. Got four keepers a few shorts .The largest 26 inches. (pictures to follow) We caught 4 this morning with 2 keepers. All on 1/4 ounce binks. The 26 in. was in 4 feet of water at 1:30 in the afternoon. So with the Lords blessing and Dan Huffords especially and others help I'm pretty happy Pics later,Thanks Mike

beats working. Thanks for the post

I'll be in church tomm. also. Planning on going monday and spending 3 or 4 days .debating on going to Norfork or Stockton.Having a hard time figuring out the walleye on Stockton. Would it be too much to ask what area of the Lake you were fishing dan hufferd ,through his posts has me hooked on the Binks spoons. I'll probably stay at ruark's Bluff. Thanks for any info. Mike

Any idea what area of the lake?
