Nice to see the pro`s spend some quality time with someone who truly appreciated and needed it and Kudos to Bass Pro and you Bassman for making the effort. No BPS bashing for me I love the store.

Wow I wonder what the interest is on a 15 year term???? The only thing you should amortize for that long is a house! Good luck with your purchase.

All my Musky baits have the barb`s pinched down for my safety aswell as the fishes.

search Legend you should get a couple hundred hits.

Sorry I brought it up!

I was a little bored this afternoon so I decided to flip the undercut banks in front of Goreski`s for a couple of hours and I was amazed to see the amount of garbage washed up against the bank, timmies cups,plastic bags and I lost count of how many empty styrofoam worm containers I saw. For christ sake take your garbage back with you and put it where it belongs, If your throwing this stuff in our lakes your a pig!!! End of rant!

I miss those wild and crazy guys the Festrunk brothers!!!

Was there a black fly hatch going on?

Well I have to agree with Holdfast on this one (I thought that would never happen) I too am getting fed up with people wanting to be Canadian when it suits them. That goes for the Canucks who opt to live in the states and run back over the border when they need some FREE medical coverage. These issues need to be addressed.

very nice rig! Probably cost a lot more than my first house!!!LOL

Thanks for the offer Mike, I was talking to a local cottager and he suggested the North part between Limerick and Mephisto we just ran out of time to fish that spot.

Well after a couple of weeks of using braid I don`t see what the big deal is, I found it to be a little more sensitive and yes it`s strong I managed to hook a submerged log that weighed at least 50-60 pounds and I just pulled it to the boat.LOL The thing that bothered me the most about it was I had a hard time seeing it and I am a line watcher so thats a problem. I could see it being useful for Musky but I can`t see using it extensively.

I don`t blame you for bugging out early the weather was very unpredictable at one point I was in a shallow bay and the sky was blue with some nice white clouds and then all of a sudden the thunder started rolling in, I am looking at the sky and I see no thunder clouds at all I say to my son thats weird. We decide to change spots and come out of the bay and around the point and the sky was black so time to high tail it. It was strange because we were in the bay surronded by the high trees and could not see the storm moving in. I wasted to much time on the shallow structure I was marking a lot of fish in the 30-40 foot range and I was thinking they were suspended Lakers but the unsettled weather may have pushed the bass that deep perhaps one of the local Bass experts can offer an opinion on that. Did you have a chance to fish the connection between St.Ola and Limerick? we managed a couple of decent bass there but man what a nice bit a bass habitat in that area. The next time I go up I would like to spend several days and really explore the lake.

As Jer said it is deep I got a max sounding of 95 feet I was marking lots of fish in the 70-90 foot range.

As I mention previously my son and I had planned a 3 day trip to Limerick Lake in search of some lunker largies, we arrived mid day and met a couple of guys pulling out their bass boat and they said the fishing was tough with only a handful of dinks caught, the owner of Limerick Lodge confirmed the fishing has been tough because of the unsettled weather not really what I wanted to hear. Limerick is a rather small lake only 4 or so miles long but it is loaded with structure plenty of bays with stumps,pads and fall downs and several rocky humps. The first afternoon we fished near the lodge and the fishing was tough with only a few small largies boated.The second day we decided to concentrate our efforts on the 2 small islands on the north end of the lake and again we could only manage a few small bass until my son managed this nice largie he caught it on a mister twister grub and spinner of all things. The third day was more of the same lots of small largies and smallies my son did manage a scrapy 3.5 pound smallie, it was caught on a smoke tube. On Friday we only had a couple of hours to fish so we decided to try a spot near a small island that was loaded with rocky structure and again the same thing loads of dink bass, with only an hour or so left to fish I decide to move out a little deeper and it was a good call as I was rewared with this nice largie it was caught in 18 feet of water on a Rapala Mercer`s magic theres a plug for Dave`s signiture bait. I have a feeling we should have concentrated a little more on the deeper structure and weed lines due to the unsettled weather oh well live and learn. All in all it was a good few days on the water as I don`t get a lot of time to fish with my boys due to our conflicting schedules we would have liked to have caught a few more decent fish but that`s fishing, we will be returning to Limerick.

I have a 55 Lb. on my 16.5 foot Alumacraft and it does a decent job on a calm day when the wind picks up it just gets by and when the wind really howls it is next to useless. If I were to do it again a would go with a 24 volt system and a much higher thrust. Go with 55 Lbs thrust as a minimum.

Just don`t take this whole thing to seriously it`s only fishing for crying out load!!!

Whats the point!!! You mean like the silly reply above. LOL I tend to agree with some of your points trying to get some of the people here to share useful information about a lake,techniques or specific baits is akin to pulling teeth the exception would be if you belong to the old boys network you will probably do okay. Sharing info on batteries,fishfinders,trailers,boats, what kind of trucks and motors you like or dislike etc. is no problem as they do not actually involve a fish or a body of water. I asked a question recently on a specific lake (and I was not asking for GPS locations) that I was planning on fishing with my son for the first time and I recieved 1 response that was helpful and a handful of the usual responses from guys who think they are funny. My advice if your looking for useful information buy a map book or a chart or visit the local bait shop or marina and spend a couple of bucks you will probably get all the info you need.

That`s some blow by blow account for a 12 incher! I can`t wait for the report for the 25 pounder!!

Yes we all now the story domestics stink and Japanesse products are perfect, ask all the Toyota Yaris owners how they like their trannies or a buddy of mine who`s Honda Civic with less than 30k Km`s threw a piston through the block. In my driveway you will see a Buick, a GMC, a Ford and a Dodge! Don`t get me wrong I love Toyota and Honda as they are VERY good customers of mine I just hate the constant bashing of the domestics.

Are you towing with this mini van?

After using mono all my life I have finally decided to give braided line a go, I am going to spool one baitcaster with Power Pro and one spinning outfit with Stren Super Braid The guys at Lebaron say I will love it and never go back to mono... we`ll see.

You guys that have more than 20 rods should seek help and the ones that have 40 are beyond help!!!

save up for a real boat!
