I just have a 16.5′ Deep-V Pikemaster. Not much of a match for rough water. Plus the wife is green as they come so I don’t want to terrify her on her first trip. Not to mention I’m not much of a fan of it either.
I am quite flexible and open to launching in other areas of the lake. I’m going there to catch fish. I actually plan to head to Cedar Creek Public Access and maybe cast some pumpkin tubes or drift some slip bobbers over the rocks in Twin Bays. If it’s not too busy with other boats. If that doesn’t work I planned to venture farther out to Hawkbill Reef, The Graveyard or Hennepin Island and explore that a little bit.
Another day I plan to venture out of Fisher’s Harbor and explore Agate Bay Reef, Flamingo and Lakeside and see what I can drum up.
Not sure where the main breaklines are that Will speaks of but I have the Tutt Map and maybe Daron can point me in the right direction. The problem is I’ve never seen changes in make up of the bottom on my graph before so I don’t know what to look for. I’ve never tried leadcore before and I’m itching to try it. Sounds like this would be a great place to try. I also have a wind sock. Someone I know said you can’t troll Mille Lacs without one. Got a 50″ so I’m itching to see how that works.
I don’t even know why I’m at work. I can’t focus right now for nothing. Tomorrow will take forever to end.
