more or less wire leaders will hinder the action of the lure. I find that it has the least effect if you use it with lures that is constantly retrieved (i.e. spoons, in-line spinners, spinnerbaits, etc). For jerkbait and crankbaits, the wire leader weight down the front end of the lure so when you "pause" it, it tends to sink the front end. I have heard good things about heavy flouro leaders but I have never used it myself so i won't comment on it ...

thanks for posting, that map's been around for quite some time and that site has maps for many other lakes as well.

salad fish. lol, i love that name. I should start up a thread and ask everyone to post their PB salad fish. thank you for the detailed report/experiment, it was a great read for the morning!

Ain't it nice to get some carp slime on your hands ! These long bullets fights the best! Thanks for the pics Rich.

summer's half gone ... why is it so short ...

they eat anything haven't heard anyone who uses it regularly as bait though ... interesting to find that it works better than corn out your way, maybe because there are alow of crawfish swimming around your area and they got accustomed to them?

Thanks for the report Justin. I'm so jealous, you seem to slay'em everytime you get out there . Gotta try fishing in that thick stuff sometime soon.

Looks like a beautiful place, and seems that you have the place to urself as well. Can't beat a week of fishing at a lake like that with good weather and lots of fish/shorelunch to boot! Thanks for the report

Welcome aboard, that's a great report to start! Keep it up and look forward to see your other reports!

Great pics and report solo! I can only dream of going to these trips ... a week away from the city and non-stop fishing. *drools* Congrats to your dad for the biggest eye! Beauty smallie you have there as well Cliff!

uh, there u are johnny . Nice fish guys, it was real windy on Sunday indeed, I resorted to fishing a river instead to stay away from the open.

That's a great pic. I think Jamie posted it early last year... if my memory is correct. A 38 incher?

Hey Rizzo I just bought a boat 2 months ago and here's how it worked out for me.... Went to look at the boat, all is good, paid for it and the owner gave me a bill of sale for the boat, trailer and motor (1 each). The owner keeps his own trailer plate and he's supposed to give me half of the trailer ownership document. What I mean by that is the document has two sides and one of the sides is supposed to go to the new owner when it is up for sale. You can keep that trailer plate and use it on another trailer. For the boat/motor, you just give all the documents you have to the new owner and he can take care of everything else on their own. Let me know if you have more questions.

Nice post LBH, I just bought a tinny also this year and I'm thinking of painting it next spring. Let's hope that we'll have someone knowledgable chip in here.

I think if you intend to use this lure for walleye, you will catch anything but walleye lol. That's just the way it is. LOL Amazing looking lure!

Congrats on the PB Marko! Looks like it's got some good meat on that fish.

sweet ride man! Now lets see some fish slime on that thing!

Recipes Recipes Recipes!? It's gotta be the way you guys are cooking it

i hear ya man. Something like that happened to me yesterday as well. Since i have gotten the boat i haven't had much luck finding the bass, yesterday I've finally hooked into 2 good sized ones and they both got away. One was easily 3-4 lbs as I saw her jump then spit my spinnerbait. Man was I disappointed. O well, we know where they live now.

You guys seems to be doing well with the muskies! Nice report Jedi! So.. to sum up your report. Your wife: 2 muskies, 1 largie Your daughter: WGSF!! You: only 1 walleye and 1 largie wow, this whole wife/son/daughter outfishing the husband/dad thing is still holding true! And..no pic no fish, so don't tell us now that you actually managed 2 50' muskie but couldn't snap a pic Thanks for sharing!

Glad to hear everything's finally working out for ya Maureen! I'm sure the fishing gods with be on your side now that you have conquered all the obstacles!

Very neat shots dsn. I hope that they're done soon ... it's been a while already and I need a carp fix BAD. JohnF ... I didn't know you're into that stuff. LOL

Nice haul guys!! A couple hours of fishing after work, there's no better way to de-stress . Where's JohnnyBass lol, i haven't seen his reports for like 2 days already

Clean & healthy looking fish Rich. (except for that weird growth) Always nice to wet a line, even if it's only for like 15 minutes.

You work for Gulp? dang that's nice. lol joking. would you have a picture of the rig? I can't really picture it. It would be nice to set up that rig for the girlfriend so I don't have to unhook fish/rig worms every minute.
