Thanks all for the info. This will be my first trip out onto the big lake. Perch is our primary target over the clay flats followed by trolling in close to shore. Not sure we know what we're doing but this is the best way to learn. Wish us luck. Marine forecast looks right for our smaller Lund with 50 horse. Headed out now for the light display that begins in a few hrs. No clouds at this time. I think we should have good observation of sun. I'll report our experience on weds when I'm back in office.
