That is definitely a nice fish.

I caught a 36″ muskie at merit a few years ago trolling for eyes in the snake. It sure was fun until he got the thumb with the gill plate.

Thanks for the info guys.

It usually starts to get good around that time of year. I don’t know how it is right now. The last time I was there was fathers day and we just did ok on the eyes. Had 19# and two 10# pike but like I said that was fathers day. It is the place to be in the fall. Just watch out for sandbars and trees floating down the river.

I think I might try to ice fish it this winter and see if I can find any big gills.

Just an ice jig with a small piece of crawler at Yanney.

Went out to Yanney the other day took home 13 good gills and on real nice crappie. Other than that haven’t been much. I hope this cooler weather stays around I am ready for fall walleye on the river.

Sure is a good looking fish you got there Brian.

Thanks for the info.

Thanks Ben we did really good out of Wigand a few years ago late in the fall. First and last time I have ever fished it.

Lewis and Clark, apple tree and lazy acres area.

I traded and older Rem 870 for one last year just like this one and it runs great. So take into consideration the gun was very well used and 14 years old so I would also say probably around $100 to $150. The one I got was hardly used still had the paint on the muffler.

good job B Rob.

I have an older Eskimo 8900 with the Tecumseh 49cc engine. It works great. I dont have any info on any of the newr ones.

I have a pair very similar to those made by Eagle Claw. They work ok and do not cost much at all.

I just wear a pair of heacy socks a light weight boot and pull over Tingly rubber boots Black in color. My feet are never cold and stay dry.

I wish I could get on the ice at Thanks giving time. We don’t get that luck in Nebraska. However I can’t wait for ice up.

Cabelas sells a pretty mean pair they are called Ice Trekkers Dimond Traction. I dont know for sure if you can get them in a size 14 or not. Check em out. I did buy a very fairly cheep pair from Wal-Mart that work ok. But we I am in Nebraska and it does not get as cold here so our ice is not very often realy hard slick clear lake ice.

Any modle of the Marcum.

Well I moved the spring and it ran wide open for a very short time then goes back to not quit running wide open. I think the spring must be wore out.

I hear you some times when I fish with the father in law all I am is the net man too. However I did out fish him the last time we were out.

Good Job B Rob.

Yup that is where we had to put in at was up by the dam and then drove 10 miles up the lake.

Sounds like the Walleye fishing is still good on the lake in 8 to 15 foot of water hope to be up the next weekend.

My father inlaw and some of his buddys have been fishing it and doing good. I hope to get up there in a couple weeks as I wont be able to fish the river.

Thanks for the info guys.

My brother has an egal claw that I think is around that long. I think it is called the ultra light pro.

Three pulls on the one I just traded for after sitting dry for some where around 5 years.

Did you look on Ebay.

I have a 36″ Frabill hole hopper rod. I like it, it is light and very sensitive. I don’t even need the spring bobber on the end that it came with. I also think it still has enough back bone for bigger fish. By far the best one I have.
