I was out saturday best luck we had was on the minnesota side around 10 feet of water jointed firetiger we did ok not great. South of lake city. Talked to guys at access that were north of town that did better than us. Was breezy out there.

I don’t understand the polaris thing I had a 2018 570 had 2800 miles on it zero problems. Just picked up my 2021 saturday! New ride has improved battery placement and a built in battery tender hook up.

This might sound strange but ebay has some great deals on condos. we have went to the wilderness twice stayed in a very nice suite for around 150 dollars per night.

Few years ago we did a trip around that time but went to Port Winthrop went through Kinn’s sport fishing got a bunch of Coho action was fast. Fun trip and great crew.

I was out saturday as well didn’t boat a fish. Had 2 bites time for new trolling motor batteries.
Did notice fishing was better after noon.

Rest in peace RRR prayers to his family and weather you meet him once or often it seemed like everyone of us were his friends.

Just did mine this year and 200 covered it, but boy was it worth it let it go way too long.

It won’t be hard to steer just really sloppy.

Seastar hydraulic steering fluid is what they wreck amend, but you shouldn’t need to add any unless your seals are leaking witch you will notice in the steering wheel your motor won’t respond right when turning the wheel. Mine were out and its not fun trying to control the boat.

Strange thing is these songs just get better the older I get.

Did you have any luck?

Id say last year when we started pulling lead core out of 100-150 boats we were only ones doing that as well. Sound like you had a good trip.

We were up there last year same time if its nice out I would go up to the Islands. If not anchor right outside of the gap and you should catch all sorts of fish on jig and frozen shiner. Last year we had best luck in 26-28 fow. Good Luck and like everybody else said stop in and see Kyle at log cabin bait. He would love to meet all your needs from gas to booze!

Last saturday 5-16 got 5 all short was about 15 -20 boats working it don’t think anybody was doing great. Jointed any color worked. Did find a few more with better size in the river yet, but fishing wasn’t great.

On the lake I would guess in the middle 1 to 2 mph, but where I usually fish it’s a non factor the wind pushes more than the current along the shore.

That makes it worth it right there besides saturday was damm nice and pretty quiet I thought.

Anybody been out? It’s awe-full quiet here.

I second the jointed shad rap alot easier to read especially on lead.There havn’t been any reports but the can line or bay city flats should have fish.

Went out yesterday handlining fished from baypoint all the way to the dam, caught a dozen or so slower than the last two saturdays. I’d say the fish are on the move south but what do I know?

Thanks, thats how mine are Jabbinpike was asking for a picture.

I run a alumacraft full windshield and just have them in my front ram holders, this is how most people run them some people have fancy extensions so cable doesn’t rub boat side.

Been there last two saturdays and havn’t seen a co yet at baypoint checking for limits.

Yep USDA my bad.

All open good to go.

There are different classes of meat markets. Most butcher shops can’t sell the meat they process to the public but if you buy the animal from local farmer or own the animal they can process that animal for you. Some meat markets are FDA inspected to process said animals and sell to public, but this is at such a small scale compared to the big plants that are closing down, there is not a meat shortage but if this hog and cattle market doesn’t turn around fast there will be a farmer shortage.

Another vote for the polaris trail blazer or older trail boss very solid, and should be able to pick up for well under 2 grand. And still big enf for adults. As for the older ones don’t spent too much as you can buy a brand new sportsman 450 for under 5 grand in the fall and finance it for around 2.9%

I got a tournament 175 with a 175. Its not a speed boat but I dont beat on it either runs 30-35 with alot of throttle left easier on gas that way, stock prop but really never had it over 45mph. I figure lower rpms should be easier on the motor in the long run. If I was going new I would go same rout but maybe with a Suzuki?

I d say save your money my wife and I want last year 7 foot plus waves didnt even feel safe puked went back to shore no refunds only if the boat cancels. Big waste of money.

Longest possible I wrecked my front tire hitting my cover bracket, wheeler ended up on top of the box side nothing a new pair of shorts didn’t fix.

After we sold the pop up we got a hybrid. Nicest difference was storage and bathroom. Pack it up and leave it with the pop up had to bring extra stuff in the truck then pack back up when leaving again. Set up time pretty much the same. Ours had u shape couch and table in front of the bed hated crawling between that everytime you get in and out of bed stupid design I thought. One of the gaskets leaked where it folds out and pretty much wrecked the bed and wood under it so leaving it outside in the freeze thaw would make me nervous. But im no expert.
