  1. That's a Rapala Minnow Spoon. They came in both a single hook weedless version and yours which had a treble.

     

    I've still got a bunch of the weedless ones and use them all the time. Great lures!

    Mike, this is what I was using on Beteau.........single hook with a 5in white double tail. It got most of my big fish all week.

    Thanks........I'm sure that is it.

  2. I need to pick up 1 more casting reel, I have a Gander mountain Guide series IM8 7'6 heavy 1/2 - 1 /3/8oz. Primarily going to use for throwing Bucktails and 1.5oz spinner-baits, 1oz spoons. I need some suggestions.......trying to stay in the $100 and under slot. I will probably be using 40lb braid also.
    Thanks for any input...............
    Hips

  3. Welcome! Nice to see you on this site now.

     

    You'll love Taltson Bay, it's been on my personal bucket list for years.

     

    As far as Dave helping I've been prodding him for a couple years now to take us in his boat along with some camping gear over to that Taltson Bay area. He's afraid of the boat ride though and won't do it. :whistling:

    Great to be here, Mike...........thanks to your input for Eddie North, I put a 43in in the boat, my PB. We'll be flying into Yellowknife August 28th and fishing Taltson Bay that week. It was also on my bucket list. I'm already stocking up on Bulldawgs and really excited about the new Savage Gear lures I just ordered. I don't think I'd take my boat across Great Slave lake either !!!!!!!! Taking my Go Pro camera and a full report when I get back.

  4. Welcome!

    I see you are from Tennessee!

    Are you mostly pike, walleye, lake trout interested?

    I have not fished there, but Drifter_016 lives and used to guide up there. I'm sure he could offer some great info. Dave is very knowledgeable about what works on those species.(as well as many others)

    Can't help but inquire about your username!

    Are they working well?

    Well, I have a 15,000 acre Lake Louden about 1/4 mile from my house.Open water year round..... Mostly Bass, crappie and catfish....We have stripers in the system but really haven't fished for them....got one by accident last year . It's not bad....but not up to Ontario standards.

    I had my first Hip replaced in 2005 and the second one 3 months later. No problems with either one, all you need is a good surgeon. i could use Dave's advice on getting bigger bass.......so far my biggest is 16in. pretty pathetic !!!!!!!!! I head to Ontario when I want get that walleye & pike itch.

  5. Hello, everyone...............I've been a visitor on this forum for the last few years. Had trouble with creating a new account, so I gave up. I've been on Ontario fishing trips for the past 25-30 years. I know a few of you from other walleye forums, great source of information. This year my son and I are booked for Taltson Bay Big Pike lodge in the Northwest Territories. Anyone ever been there? Looking forward to sharing fishing knowledge and experiences with everyone :good:

    Great to be here.......................New Hips
