  1. I believe the early opener is for inland waters only- since they are supported by stocking and there is little to no natural reproduction. Maybe someone else will chime in that is more familiar with the proposals. Agreed that great lakes waters should remain 3rd sat in june to protect spawning fish- looks like the plan is to keep the season on great lakes the same

  2. Nice-  I believe the black spots are flukes (parasites) in their larval or cyst form.  I have seen these quite a bit on smallmouths in the past.  I think the flukes can only reach adulthood if the infected fish is consumed by a bird....but don't quote me on that. I am no biologist, just a fish nerd

  3. Same as nitro and muskiedreams. I run drags as light as possible. they sometimes creep out when bouncing in waves.. Then i tighten them just a hair. Also run 80lb braid for trolling esox... Although i doubt that line diameter is a factor with your issue

  4. Am/fm. There is a fuse at the radio and 2 in the fuse panel. They are good. Logic tells me that since i ripped out the ignition switch and rewired a new one, that it should be something to do with the switch. Kinda baffles me since everything else works. Haven't been able to mess with it today but will fart around with it this week. Thanks for the suggestions guys

  5. Replaced the switch and that seemed to have done the trick. I cracked open the old switch and there was quite a bit of moisture in there so i believe that was the cause. However now my radio does not work. Everything else is working (bilge, sonar, livewell pumps,nav lights). I checked all the fuses and they are good. What am i missing? Drivin me nuts.....
