  1. Here ya go Bob, I'll pick you up,. Can we use the "Treble Maker"??? http://www.pubclub.com/springbreak/havasu.htm
  2. You might want to check with Catfish Creek before you secure a trailer, you might have to pay extra for the hornets nest, raccoons and broken pipes in the trailer unless they have been upgraded.
  3. Oh got it now, Nice fish But uh..... why aren't you holding it Booty?? In heels BTW, I'll throw Ray and Bob both out of the boat, I'm younger then they are
  4. Nice pics guys, glad you all survived the rough conditions.
  5. Nice job mayor wish I was there to share in the excitement.
  6. i got a web cam on mine Pete...how bout you? we can shoot live action to each other...oops don't tell ray, he will show his buffy method Mark no web cam
  7. The bigger problem I think is the 17# or 25# you are using is diminishing the action on the spoons. Not so much the sticks, but them as well. I think you would do fine with 8# or 10# mono to your lure. Or the 17# you are using to a small bb barrel swivel then 8' of 8 or 10# floro ( I use seagar or trilene big game) then a small snap, not a snap swivel, just the snap, you will get better action on light spoons (suttons/stingers)
  8. I want to know when the storm that may kill me is coming when it is in Michigan, not Rochester! I would like to see it with my own eyes and make a determination from that. This issue was discussed here a short time ago and for those who use laptops they are a valuable asset beyond weather. If your in a 16' open boat a laptop may not make sense, but if you have cover, and are willing to spend the $ for the aircard, why wouldn't you use one?.. Its all about personal preference i guess, but I for one will always have mine handy as long as I can. Besides me and Mark (skipper) can fire off pics of our big fish to one another while there still flopping on the deck
  9. Tim, you may know this. I thought I read at one time that the salmon caught in the lake in the years (after) a poor return to the hatchery (07')? as well as other drought years, and limited numbers later stocked actually faired better in numbers AND size at maturity than on a normal stocking year??
  10. Finally dumped the boat and was able to get a shakedown in on thurs. After loading the gear and getting the electronics up and running it was time to wet a rod. All things seemed to work fine until I heard a strange noise below deck. Found out later an air pressure canister that apparently pressurizes the water system on board exploded Except for plastic and water all over the place it wasn't that bad. I later bypassed the thing and everything worked fine. I then managed to do some browns and an atlantic, mostly on 50' copper and 2 color core with various alewife patterns, chicken wing, stinger copper goby. The same pattern seemed to do well most of the weekend. I fished with Jim (double J) and Frank (Home Office) a couple days and had a great time, we managed more than 30 browns over the long weekend, and also dropped a bunch. Most were cookie cutters, a couple decent fish, and a bonus drop back hen steelie. We fished east of the harbor or in the harbor itself. Nice to finally get going BTW, all fished we released except for one brown, and all of the fish were in great shape, fat and clean, very few lampreys Hen Jim Frank 10#
