Standard procedure for me is launch Mexico on westerly and Pine Grove on easterly. Hug the shore and then peek out. You know the drill. Fish where starting to head in Saturday evening.  If it don't feel right don't go. Just my 2 cents. 
Keep it tight 

Any word on Pine Grove launch... enough water for an 18' Lund to scoot out?

Thanks guys.

(the bridge)

I would say +/- 12ft above the water line. 8'6" rods in rod holders in my Lund Impact hit when going under. Done that a couple times.😬

Always on them Kevin! Another great report. Glad to see the fleas laying back a bit as well.

Hi Everyone. Planning to finally get back on the big lake tomorrow after a year long hiatus after selling my Lund Rebel. After a 9 month search I was finally able to replace it with another Lund, an Impact.

 

We've got everything ready to go and are just looking for thoughts on where to launch and any thoughts on a starting point fow.

 

Really appreciate the help.

Hey guys, I've seen so many videos lately of guys targeting browns and steel through the ice in a number of Lake Michigan harbors with good success.

 

Are there any east end harbors that make good ice to give it a try? And obviously where it can be done legally? The tactics I've seen are guys setting up near shore, in and around docks, etc.

 

A couple potential spots that come to mind as potential sites...Oswego Harbor, The SR Estuary via Pine Grove?

 

Thanks for any help.

I've always had good luck on eBay with my gear. Setup daily reminders for the specific model #s you're looking for and be patient. Usually with some time time you can get a new or open box unit for 20-35% off. Just bought a 7" helix gps g3n unit for $425 this week. Just be ready to pull the trigger quickly when you're item comes up!

What requirement drove you specifically to a walk-around?  You definitely give up some overhead cuddy space and in general your cockpit will be narrower on a walk-around.

Great question I was just trying to find a balance between overall functionality and having some decent space to hold gear and possibly spend an overnight or two on the boat. I am definitely open to other ideas in that range if you have any

So I sold my 17' Lund Rebel about a month ago with the intent of sizing up to a 21-25' walkaround to handle a bit more weather on the big lake.  I've been looking around at a bunch of makes/models and honestly the list is a bit overwhelming.  I'm hoping to get everyone's thoughts on boats you'd recommend and maybe those to stay away from.  My priorities are probably the same as anyone in search of one of these boats; large rear deck for fishing, ample storage in the cuddy, reliability, stability in "weather", towable by a 1/2 ton, etc.  My budget isn't huge at $20-$30k.  A few features that I think would be nice...hardtop, outboard, wash down, lockable cuddy, autopilot.

 

I put together a list of Makes/Models that I've seen either for sale or recently sold that meet these basic requirements, in no particular order.

We finally found the one we were looking for this afternoon. 50' down over 55'. Flasher + Meat. 31". Send back down swimming.

Can't thank everyone enough for their help.

Great advice.  My slide divers are parked at home in my basement, ugh. I have fixed cheaters set and will give them a go this morning.

 

Believe it or not had a decent bite yesterday on flasher + meat.  I shaved down some lake O herring strips to make them a bit more streamlined and that got them chasing into the riggers and a couple small Lakers on the deck.

 

I've definitely seen some decent marks but it's hard to be sure with the piles of smelt. I've put riggers right on them with leads from 30' to 130' back. Only one I've caught was a juvenile LT on 7 color core and a daiwa TD Minnow plug.

Hi Everyone,

 

Our family is staying on 4th lake for the week through labor day. Always done pretty well on LT and LLS. Can't move a rod this year in 5 days. Confidence pretty low at this point.

 

I've tried all the usual stuff... spoons, cowbells, plugs even some FF and meat. Have also tried vertical jigging with no results. Screen lit up with smelt just about everywhere in 40+ which could be part of the problem.

 

Any help is super appreciated.

 

Thank you.

The beauty of the boat is that in less than an hour it can be completely rigged for fishing or completely clean for family boating.  Everything comes off including all rails and mounts, all without screwing anything into the boat.

Glenn,

Thanks for all the information. We decided to keep our reservation on Sandy (Oswego Cty) for all the reasons you described. I really feel for all the folks and businesses impacted up there by the ongoing issues with the channel. I've got a 17' Lund Rebel so we can just trailer it down the road a bit.
