I believe it is Raychart

Last evening between the pier's at Point Breeze. We were walleye fishing around the breakwall and the temp there was 70-72 degrees. Quite remarkable for May! Just 3 weeks ago the river temp was hovering around 50.

Can someone put this guy on the tweets page? This is the best reporting of anyone on this site. The tweets page gets less tweets on a Saturday from the entire gang that Bobsboy posts in one trip. Nice job!
Do you mean twitter or is there a tweets page of some sort? I tried twitter, but it's kinda a pain and not very interactive. I like to ask you guys questions and answer questions you might have. Plus I like pictures, they help tell a story... Like the lets go fishin pics, they normally show wave conditions and cloud conditions for anyone on shore thinking of coming out.

I sort of like this interactive format, I think it is very cool!! It takes a great deal of time to keep a thread like this going and I appreciate the effort Nick puts into it!!

For starters check your ground, or reroute your power directly back to the battery and see if that helps.

Cool video!! Thanks for posting.

Koot,
Go get 'em!! I will be out Saturday. Give me a shout on the water and let me know how deep they are!!

The best way is have some buddies in the marina that are willing to come and get you and tow you in. PAy him for gas and return the favor if they need it some day.
And if no one is in danger offer to wait till the Capt is finished for the day, sit back empty the cooler of softdrinks and relax!!

We tried a new prop on our nissan 9.8 kicker, a solas 4 blade high thrust prop. The old prop we had problems with "drift" and the riggers would tangle from the boat drifting sideways. The new prop did a much better job, but when the wind picked up today we had trouble doing 2.8 at full throttle, so I might need to go back to my old prop.

Nick,
I assume that the kicker is offset to one side, if that is the case you may want to run a small bag on the same side as the motor and run at a higher RPM. Give it a try with a 5 gal bucket and see if it corrects the drift before you buy the bag.
Just an idea, may work for you.
Keep the reports coming!!!

I also use the auto stop beads on my Scotty's with the coated D/R cable.
I covered the bead with shrink tubing and CAREFULLY heated the shrink tubing to encase the bead in its own little cocoon.... slides through the antenna smooth as silk..
Jim S.
Good idea!!
NOW that's a good idea for all the cables!!!
Thank you!!

You can use any rod but the question would be whether or not your going to be able to enjoy the battle of the fish or just wench them in.
Good luck
Glen
Enjoy the battle or "wench" them in????? Would that be a Maid in America wench???

a basic rule is the rule of 100. 20 ft of water, let out 80ft of line, 50 ft of water, let out 50ft of line, 75 ft of water, let out 25ft of line and so on.....
I like this rule down to about 40' after that I choke them up. Spoons 8 - 12', flashers about 25'. Change if needed. What Ray said about it being a science is exactly right and the part of science that it is ........................experiment!!!

Rod,
Go in peace my friend. Where there is big water there are big fish.

Sounds like early transition. The surface temp is rising quickly from most reports I'm reading. Fish are sorta scattered in the water column. Equation sounds like that of a impending flip....what do you think?

No sorta scattered about it, they are all over the place. If I had the day to do over again I would have stayed in the <120 fow area just because I'd know that there would be no fish under 120'!
Not only were they scattered but they were uncommitted as well, lots of short hits some were little fish for shure, but others popped the tight releases but were gone by the time we got the slack out.

SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS
====================
Very wierd day for us today. The bite started all on junk lines 2 oz & 200 copper both with Geezer's then I got word that there were some hungary fish deep so I broke out the 600' copper put a WMD on it and missed a fish then boated 2 coho -- thought I'd put some red glow down to feed them and the 107' rigger popped with a steelhead - 43 degree water, coho's and steelhead???????????? then to really confuse things we took a Laker on the slider on the 40' rigger. Never figured out the bigger fish today.

From my limited experience I have found that the GPS SOG is the #1 data point in speed control, the #2 data point is your compass heading these are the essentials and then autopilot, and track on the plotter help my failing memory to retain that data.
When a fish hits note the GPS speed and the compass heading, duplicate it until they stop hitting then change one or both until they fire again.
#1 fishing tool - your brain - use it!!

The answer to your question is yes you can, but if you do not want to run leadcore, copper or wire, you will be running a lot of lead once the fish are >50'.
There is a system for achieving maximum depths with snap weights, but the methods are kept close to the vest due to an agreement with the man who devised the system. Your best bet is to observe and copy and the best time to observe on LO is right now while we are fishing the higher water column. Sorry about the vaguenes of this post, but my word is my word and I promised not to tell, but I did not agree to hide the system or not use it.

I used the SPX 5 several years ago (3) when they first released it before the recall and it worked fine, I loved the wireless remote option.
