If you have a 3inch gulp minnow, Try that instead of a worm, you will find that you won't have to bring worms again. Thats what i use with my bucktail. Limit out every time i've gone.
snuffy you did the right thing , that has happened to me many time , and if he was that close in front of me things would have been really close with the boards , release would have told him pay more attention your on my troll line your nothing but a tail piper I'm sure his name was Richard Cranium
Since those things came out and I tested them vs worms on a bucktail... I havnt touched a crawler...
After taking a week off, made it down there this evening around 7pm , lake was flat and mobbed with boats fishin shallow, so ran out deep to find some solitude, got 2 eyes in 4 casts, thought it was going to be on fire, but only got 2 more in the next hour or so jigging sonars, that hurt my arm so made a move shallower right at dark, picked up another 4 eyes at dark casting sticks...gots some really large smallmouth on accident, measured 2 at 19 inches, and an eye at 21 1/4 inches taken in 39 fow. Headed in around 10pm... white bugs are fading but mosquitos were biting pretty good after sunset. Great red sunset from the smoke off those colorado forest fires.
Doing some Birthday fishing today, celebrating my 24th. hoping to get some good size torpedos, best tasting ones. Ill let you know how i do tonight
Went out this morning with my buddy joe, Managed to get my limit, my buddy got 3 but only one keeper. Mine all came before 8:30am had to search for them. Anyone notice how thin they have gotten?? They don't look like they are but they are. My 3 fish are the bottom 3 15 1/2 - 17,- 17.inches. Jig with a 3in gulp minnow.
Fished for 8 hours, got 23 walleye kept only 6. biggest one was 25" (New Personal Record) smallest one was 15 1/2" caught them all on a silver spinner bait tipped with a fat worm from mickeys bait "thanks james" launched once again out of BP, listen idc who takes my spot there killing it there.. launch and go right to the island and hope the drift goes towards chapmans park.. HAPPY B-DAY TO ME!!!
beautiful out this morning, a little slower then the last couple weeks for me . but i have a quick question, I was trolling out by 119 ,another boat called troll king (3 guys)or something like that pulled out in front of me about 150 yds and shut it off and started jigging. I didnt think to much about it, so i started to turn right to troll with the wind in a track i have on my gps. so i get about the same distance to the right of him 150 yds or so , i see him throwing his hands around in the air , he thinks im trolling his drift i sat for a minute in disbelief . then i told him what i thought of him. im not sure what I was suppose to do, you pulled in front of me and shut it down!!! if i went left into the wind i would have barely made it by you! so I went right! was i suppose to pull my rigs in and turn around?? I hope he didnt feel i was trying to get his fish, i fish for the fun of it, if you asked me i would probably have given you my fish!! its not that big a deal . but I just wonder whats the protocol in that scenario???
