    Someone got a great boat. Congrats on the sale.
  2. whaler1
    Great stuff! Beautiful boat as well.

    I don’t think so. Fish are curious and may mistake the boat commotion for a school of bait. I grew up fishing the ocean. Did it for years till I moved here. Lures would be right in heavy prop wash. I believe the boat scares some fish but attracts others. Just my opinion.

    But it also attracts fish as well. Have had hundreds smash Chinook Divers with 20 to 40 feet of line out. Many times in spring they out catch the riggers and board lines by a significant amount.

    Big bowfin are awesome. Will be targeting them soon when I have free time and the lake is rough. Carp too.

    Went with my son, lines in at 8:30 and out at 10:30. 80-120 down 40 and 50, divers out 120 and 150 all pulling standard size spoons at 2.5 down. 4 for 5 on kings, dropped two and one small Atlantic. Biggest king was 18lbs. went back for an hour and jigged in 80 to 100 and marks were scarce but wife wanted to get some sun. Told me there was no chance I would catch one with one rod just lifting up and down. lol proved her wrong, even if it was a laker.

    I only ice fish Braddocks so not an issue.

    Great job! The giant log in ten feet of water just east of the mouth is going to give someone a bad day.

    I’m going to scoop up a few dozen when I see them and freeze them. Want to try them for ice fishing for pike this winter.

    Sons in from Old Forge and we got out from 7-10. 8 Kings and a bow 35 to 45 down on riggers and 50 ish on divers. Ran all spoons. Thank you Tenatureboy and Silver Fox for the heads up on where to find them. Plus or minus 100 foot of water was our best.

    Awesome. Thank you for the report.

    Anyone out this afternoon? Heard clear water showed up.
  13. whaler1
    What port will you be fishing out of?
  14. whaler1
    Welcome aboard. It’s actually pretty simple and I think you will be surprised how well you will do. Happy to help if I can.

    It was actually the “vegetable of the day” on the radio lol.
