    Looking for good baitcasting curado revo??

    After much trial and error with reels I think I finally found one that'll stick. I have 2 curado, 2 revos + a revo rocket (9.0:1), and lews team lite. I love my curados for durability with the exception of the thumb button which always seems to break. Lews reels are solid but I have to give my hand to abu right now. They have great stuff. Their whole revo line is spectacular. Depending on how much you want to spend they have a wide range of top quality reels

    If this happens to be the same fish than man is he one dumb fish. That'd be close to 10 confirmed catches on him lol. I've seen a couple others too, and would assume that it's more likely there's multiple Humpy doppelgängers. It makes sense since they are stocked that it's a stocking injury, but it's possible it could be due to poor handling or something along those lines, but I'm just guessing.

    I got out at 7:30 this morning and it was packed. Couldn't get the spot I wanted (the guy who caught the tiger did). Had to call a quick audible and scatter my tip ups between huts which was far from ideal. Didn't really bother to fish for gills today. No flags in 5 hours. Frozen everything, tough day. But hey, it's fishing.

    The guy who got the tiger told me he had caught that one last year. It had a hump back. It also had a line in its mouth on a snell hook that I took out of it. Weird looking fish, about 33-34". He also got one that looked to be about 28.

    Ice kind of sketchy today. Very mushy at shore, half of the bay through the narrows narrows is open water. Not much Ice to work with, the wind is killer. On the bright side, got about 45 sizeable gills today. Someone I talked to got a 34" tiger early on. Stay safe, I may try Tully Lake tomorrow for some crappie

    Fished all day today. Panfish very slow. Between two of us we got about 75 for the whole day. The flags were pretty good today, 4/5 with one really nice bass. No tigers. A guy next to me said he caught and released a 43 this morning on dead bait. Ice is 2-6" throughout the bay. Closer to dam the thicker, I drilled holes all over the place.

    Solid couple hours out there, darkness crept up on me fast. I'll be out tomorrow as well. Got about 50-60, 25 keeper size. Perch and gills. No crappie, everyone I've talked to hasn't even seen one come through so far. Guy out there got 4 tigers, biggest being 28. Found out a 37" was also caught and released yesterday. I had one flag go up but was off by the time I ran over. Ice is anywhere from 2-4", thicker in the middle. Bigger gills coming up from bottom if you can get past the millions of 4 inch perch. Lots of holes drilled out there so watch your footing.

    Got about 2 1/2 - 3 inches out there by the dam as of today. I walked out to scout it out, there was one guy out there for a few hours. Seems to be a big soft spot running through the middle of the ice, so be careful if anyone's going out. I'm waiting for at least two more cold days like we have had, but we'll see if the forecast flops and brings us some nice cold weather. Stay safe out there, let's keep this a running thread for the season. Hope to see what everyone gets ! Good luck out there.
