Sac River Jim Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Bill those are some the nicest spots ive seen in a long time. footballs like those are what has made this lake famous. they are my absolute favorite to catch. Champ188 1
magicwormman Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Great job Bill!! It' been a long time since I've seen spots like that. That is what's called GOOD MEDICINE!!!!
Quillback Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Great stuff! Those fish are just crazy fat, really good to see those healthy fish.
fishingaddiction Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Congrats on a fine day of fishing Bill and changing your game plan for the better. Frustrating to lose and re-type all the time, but as you mentioned with great rewards. Glad you are feeling better and will be ready to go Saturday. Born to Fish. Forced to Work.
Members Leitsout Posted March 12, 2015 Members Posted March 12, 2015 I'm getting excited, I've got a guide trip with Bill set up for Sunday. Looks like we should have some excellent weather and hopefully some big fish. Bill, hope you are feeling better. Looking forward to Sunday.
Champ188 Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 After learning of Bill's remarkable success, I set out on a quest the other evening for Rapala Ice Jigs. Was unable to locate any but found a couple of nice-colored Sebile ice jigs in half-ounce size. Full retail was $14 EACH on them but they were 50% off, so I landed those babies at the rock-bottom price of $7 each. Of course, when I got home with them, they had crappy silver hooks (looked galvanized) so I swapped those out for No. 8 Owner Stinger trebles (unlike the Rapala Ice Jig, the Sebile model has trebles on either end). So with the hook exchange, we're probably back up to $8.50 each invested in them. Donna has vowed to not so much as touch one, so I figure it will take me all of 20 minutes to lose them both and then I can say to heck with this deep-sea fishing and go try to catch one doing something I may actually know a little bit about.

Champ Lews on Bennett Street had a good selection last week. I bought half a dozen in blk/chrome and blue chrome. if you want a couple of mine get with me saturday I can always pick up a couple more Champ188 1
willyfish Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Priceless? I heard one time he said he was fishing one of those silly varmints 30 feet deep. That's a fish story if I ever heard one!
