Hey guys.... Have not been down in a few weeks... with the locks all being open now has the water level decreased to more normal levels?

Enough stuff to hit out there, let alone hitting marked objects cause the water level is so high can't see the markers.

Hey guys. Just remember there is only 1 trap or net allowed per person. 120 Minnows is the limit. And I think there is a rule about using minnow caught in one body of water in another. If you use lots of minnows catching them yourself is worth the time and effort. I toss my old trap out with bread w...

I always used Trilene Mono till last year. Moved to braid. Started with PowerPro. Other then the fading issue (or non issue as I see it) it was good. Decided to try SpyderWire Stealth this season on my baitcaster. So far I have not been all that happy. It holds it colour good, and casts well, but it...

I feel your pain. I will get my report up soon.

We didn't get snow, but got the hail and my hands and wrists are swollen from jerking the X-Raps... I must have made 1million casts this weekend with little to show for it.

1) Learning how the sonar works and how to read it.

2) Changing up to fast. For me I tend to not stick with a bait long enough.

3) Not accepting my buddy found the bait/colour/motion etc. Being bull headed, I sometimes watch him land them, but I won't use a similar setup.
