They were a great motor. Unfortunatly You may have trouble getting parts. Mariner is now only sold in european markets. Finding any former dealers with parts on the shelves may be tough.

Good luck this weekend. The river is high and dirty. Water is up in the trees and you are post spawn. Going to be a tough nut to crack.

Thanks so much for your efforts. You have made this section of the river so good for the walleyes and the people, like me, who love them. Thank you again for all your hard work.

Go to Amazing Ribs.

My wife says that “All men are idiots and she married the king”. I say, “Every king has to have a queen”.

Way to go Dale. Charlie taught you well. Now you da man!!!

Guess I should have paid more attention to what color you were buying. Nice fish though.

The pilot and co-pilot are LOST fans and wanted to re-enact the series. BooYah!!!!

Try Community Coffee. They are out of New Orleans. My brother turned me on to them when he lived there. Love thier French Roast.

My tackle box is so heavy with jigs my wife calls it the ANVIL!

That’s why I listen to Public Radio.

There isn’t anything secret about either one of those spots.

It,s gotten to the point where fishing wingdams, in clinton, is take a number and wait. On the weekend you have to leave the river by 10 or 11am because of all the boat traffic. Cabin cruisers will rock you right out of the boat. If you want too find wingdams that don’t get as much pressure you have to go down river or up to Savanna.

Sheep of the Deep!!!!!

Been getting quite a few walleyes fishing clambeds and wingdams. Also caught some down in the sand pits. Had too leave the pits early, too many pleasure boats but the walleyes are there.

We fished pool 14 Sat. Had 13 fish. 4 over 20″ 4 shorts. Same deal, they wanted it fast. Weeds are starting to become a factor now. Dropping water is pulling the weeds out of the backwaters. Big Wally Divers were the ticket.

Just remember, SLOW, LOW, and LONG.

Try Lake Link

Go to AMAZINGRIBS.COM Everything you could want to know.

The secret is SLOW and LOW. Temps of 230 to 240 for a long time. And a Texas crutch always helps.

There is a group there right now. His name is Chad and he runs a big red ranger. He may be able to give you some info. If you would have posted this last week, he probably could have brought some with him.

Hey, my wife tells me that all men are idiots and she married the king. So I tell her that every king needs a queen, so what does that make her!!! And as for asking dumb questions, my dad used too say that there is no such thing as a dumb question. Only bad answers!

No, he wasn’t drunk. Either he was full of himself, or just doesn’t give a damn. You should have let the air out of one of his tires.

The latest issue of In-fisherman has two recipes. Page 14 of the March/April issue.

That,s because some people have been watching waaaaaaay too much FOX NEWS!!!!!!

Love potato soup. Printed it and will try it this weekend.

I’ve been fishing the river for over 50 years and only recall seeing a trout caught one other time and that was a rainbow. But what I have found is that the Mississippi is like a box of chocolate, “You never know what you gonna get”.

Jig Fan is right. I have been having no problem getting my limits of 15 to 20 inchers. Some days are slower than others but the push is on. Just ask Fishbait, he knows how good the fishing has been. Every year we have to deal with the grass or high dirty water. I’m likin this low clear water. The Saugers are on the move and the big Walleyes are hungry. I start my vacation next week and I can’t wait. See you out there!!!!!

I’ll bet he thought he had the granddaddy walleye. Good job, nice fish.

FryKrisp and panko bread crumbs n BEER. Put more beer in the batter maker than in the batter.
