Let's get it on!

Great ride, should produce many more GOSD hawgs! :-)

Launched out of the Promenade to avoid the boat traffic from the GOSD fish-off. Checked out the mature King action, watched the blast off and then headed out to the blue zone. Kinda slow in the BZ this morning going 4/5 while dodging a treble from a spitting bow. Here are a couple of pics of lethargic matures from in tight.... Here is a nice bow from the BZ. Thanks for a good morning Rob!

Nice work guys - slow for us this morning as well. :-)

I'm with Slowpoke on all three fronts! Don't bother with the jet divers - the Dipsies are the weapon of choice. The Torpedos are OK, but I prefer the Dipsies so have relegated the Torpedos to a tail gunner role. The Heartland rods work well as do the Okuma dipsy rods, but the Heartlands are less expensive. In terms of line, we run 50lb braid and 30lb wire for our dipsy set-ups for Kings on Okuma Catalina 30s. The Catalinas are superior to the Convectors - the Tekotas are also very nice. Tightlines, TNL.

Thanks for the info....now, off to the blue zone!

I'm in!

That looks close to home.... :-)

IMHO, decide which is more important to you - handling the ice or pushing through the snow. I have found the Blizzaks to be very good on the ice, but not as good in deeper snow. I found the x-ice to be a little less effective on the ice, but better in the snow. My last company car (A4) had Continentals on it and I was plesantly surprised how well they did with both ice and snow. Either way you go, put them on as late as possible and yank them off as soon as possible. :-)

In terms of reliable and bang for the buck, I would look at: Crestliner Princecraft Alumacraft Starcraft I'm a big fan of maxing out the hp whenever economically possible. :-)

Was fishing the Fall King Lake of the Lake with Iceguy and a buddy, and caught my first laker. Of course, we would have preferred a nice big king! We had a good time, finishing in the top half of the event. Here is Iceguy with a couple of our better fish today. It was an exceptionally well organized and ran event! :-)

Looks tasty to me.... :-)

2005 Alumacraft Navigator 165CS with 90 hp Yammy 4 Stroke.

Awesome Reel Screamin' action!!!

It sounds (and looks) good to me.....especially for the money! Congrats!!!

Final results should be posted around 8:30 - so far, so good!

I hear they're good - just picked up a 250...so, I hope they're good! :-)

Hi Richard - Welcome to the board! It's always great to have some more Musky guys! :-)

That's kewl - thanks for sharing!

I've also heard that they have asked that people stop fishing docks...

Awsome - thanks for posting!

Got the popcorn ready......

I guess we have learned to ask them if the net comes with a handle.....

Too bad they did that too you, very disappointing behaviour on their end! Here is the Pro Tackle Link. http://www.protacklemuskyshop.com/

Haven't used that reel - so don't know the number of colours (my guess would be 5). Use a braid for backing. If chasing Kings, I would use 50lb PP or Stealth for backing. If Bows/walleyes, I would use 30 lb braid backing. :-)
