Are you the Skeeter when you start up the river in the no wake zone? I fish the chain alot normally, but my buddy that normally comes up with me passed away from cancer and
I just haven’t quite gotten over it yet. It was our favorite pass to fish especially in the fall.

This post is interesting. I’ve caught a few smallies on the chain but only by accident while fishing for Largies.
Wish I could contribute. I caught one on the hwy 22 bridge
and way down the river in Richmond off the old railroad bridge. Chain is sure a diverse fishery. I can’t get up there enough.

I had a 2001 Ranger with an Evinrude on it that had been in
and out of CPM on and off for 3 years. And they never did know what was going on and left me hanging for months on end. Glenn can a test to all the problems. Then the one Gal worth a darn, Patty in service, they lay off? Finally got rid of it and went to Warners in Wisc. I had heard nothing but good reports about them which I can’t say about any of our Minnesota dealers.
