RLS

I fished Red Lake from 6-01 to 6-09. The area had a lot of rain and the lake was up three feet. Also the high water caused a lot of floating wood so be on the look out.

Dispite the high water and wet weather the fishing was good with a lot of slot fish being caught.

Walleyes went on jigs,spinners and crawlers in twelve foot of water. Northerns were slow with the best luck on soft baits fished very slowly.

I guess it was due time to torture myself...I decided to try to snell some hooks to make a few worm harnesses. Well....the snell knot has got to be the hardest d**n knot I have come across yet to do! I have looked at that animated knot site, but it really doesn't help....finally just thrown it all down in disgust.

Here are a couple snelling tool that may help. Du-Bro kwik tie hook sneller #1116 and Rudy Masson's hook snelling tool.

Do a search for the produce information.

Here you go!

 

Kdx SD = 2.5 (Product of the vertical attenuation coefficient and the depth at which the Secchi disk disappears)

EZD : SD = 1.48 (Ratio between depth of 1% light and depth that the Secchi disk disappears)

Isu : I = 2.8 (Amount of incident PAR remaining at the Secchi Disk depth, %)

 

Cheers,

Thanks for the reply.

The above data is confusing to me. :-(

The disk readings I am used to are a measurement, usually in feet.

Is there a secchi disk or clarity reading for Red Lake Ontario?

 

Please don't do the other 200 with those! Those aren't even good avex rivets..but cheap "POP" rivets. Are those 1/8" diameter? If so PM me a mailing address and I'll send you some tank rivets.

Are tank rivets the same thing as closed end pop rivets?

If you have loose rivits get a rivit set and peen the rivits tight. A little clear silicone rubber will also help seal the rivits. Make sure the area to be sealed is clean before sealent is added.

If it is a crack it can be welded.

<BTW> with the boat on the trailer add some water and mark the spots that are leaking. This works well for finding small leaks.

Thanks a lot for the info.

I am planning a trip to Red in June and have a paper map on order. After vewing the map I will see if it is worth the $149 US for the digital map.

Man that is a deep lake; I hope my sounder is good enough to read that deep. :-)

I see Navionics 07 has a digital map of Red Lake Ontario. Has anyone seen or use the map of Red Lake and what is your opinion of the map?
