  1. usually if you fish a river ... a 3/8 os jighead /trailer ... worm .. chartreuse ,light pink or white jigs are a safe bet.

    if yer fishin lake with clear water light colored 5/16 jigs tipped with 2" 3" shiner works well .

    if yer fishin stained lakes.. chartreuse/orange 3/8 jigs tipped with ared or yellow dace minnow

    works well too.

    if fishin's slow try a lindy rig type set up .. with a minnow or a worm.. and if the water is warm enough

    you can even try a leech.. although it's still pretty early for leeches.

    i'll be putting my tips to the test this weekend.

    GOOD LUCK!! hope i've been of some help.

    p.s try casting a big Rapala over your spot before using live bait.. it usually produces more active and bigger fish..if they're there especially in a river.

  2. This is going to be my first year fishing for walleye. I have no clue what to use or how to use it. I've heard to jig off bottom but would like to get any advice, thanks :Gonefishing:

    Where are you going? water conditions, fast ,stained... how deep? clear ?

    Randy... let me know and i'll let you know. :thumbsup_anim:

  3. I am planning a trip with a friend and my brother in-law for the may long weekend.

     

    We are trying to keep costs as low as possible so crown land is probably our best bet. Since I haven't ever done this type of camping, I was hoping for some suggestions from the community. We would like to fish for any gamefish that is in season so Pike, Walleye, Trout...

    Somewhere within 4-5 hours of Toronto.

     

    I've checked out the Crown land use atlas on the MNR website, and although it looks fairly clear and straightforward, I don't want to accidentally trespass on private property or anything like that.

     

    Appreciate any tips, advice and/or your experiences if you have done this thing in the past.

     

    Thanks in advance,

    Tony

    The goodyears are a little more but have a great rating.....

     

    The search continues

    are you ghoing racing ? what the hell thoses are'nt tires for a truck ... is your truck pimped out/

    are you driving a Lightening?

    come on man put truck tires on that ... 245/70//??? 16//17? terra track a/t ... really good tire

  5. I will be replacing the tires on my truck soon and am looking for a few recommendations. I have a 2002 Ford F150 and it currently has BF Goodrich's While they have been adequate they are not what I would call a great tire. Any recommendations on brands? there is a ton of em and it is not like they will let you test drive them. I do alot of Highway driving (back and forth from work) I also tow my boat etc.

     

    Thanks in advance!

    Gerrit i sell tires every day so far Goodrich is soft a not worts the $$$ .... a really good and lower priced tire is a Terra Trac A/T by hercules ... roadhazzard warranty .6..8...10 ply available

    ... call your local Benson tire ...

    you won't be dissapointed.

  6. try slowing down your retreive that happened to me last week when i was in Burlington... downsize your lure a little Cleo red/gold worked well for me... don't ask me where we were my bro took me.. i don't know..but i could see the bridge it was south of me i was on the Burlington side 2 hrs fishing = 1 x31"

    1x26" 1x23 1/2 "

    it might work for you..

    p/s add a white twister to your little cleo

  7. Try Tech-Steel works great i keep in my tackle box... 2 part epoxy putty.sticks to anything.

    but try replacing the rivets it's not very hard... 24rivets = 2 beer

    then wash it down with "gun wash" or silicone remover let dry and apply a roll on bedliner for trucks

    problem solved! I did it on my 12 footer last spring has'nt leaked yet..

    Tech Steel available @ Benson Auto Parts ,, Auto Parts Extra ,, or any automotive place.

    but do use the Beartex scuff pads the grey ones before applying any sealant for proper adhesion

    if you do go the Rivet route seal it anyway.
