Not 100% sure but I think there's pumpkinseed and bass in there.(bass is closed) the holland rivers close and there is alot of different species available right now. Cheers Jeff

The koppers baits are my go to lures. Slayed the walleye on the perch patterns the last couple years and went through 2 smelt patterns this opener. The golden shiner is my fvouriteb crankbit as well. The only major problem I have had is that smelt baits I had both took on water but apparently the early ones had this problem which I have been told was fixed and the finish wears off very easily. I have a box full of them and will be adding the pumkinseed patterns as well. Cheers Jeff

out with 4 people today with 1 nice whitefish caught and tons of perch. Marked fish and had 2 fish on today. Real suttle bite. Cheers Jeff

I tried it but stripped it off after 1st use. Too much memory for my liking. Back to berkley line. Cheers Jeff

I use 85lbs power pro on my musky rod. Seaguar flouro for my leaders and suffix mono in 4,6 and 8lbs.

I was also looking at the 6'9" magnum rod but its alittle light for the baits that I typically throw. I had a older team daiwa muskie rod. I believe it was rated for 1-5oz lures and suited me perfectly but unfortunately broke.I've used several st.croixs and gloomis rods but find they are not worth the price tag. I haven't seen the mojo muskie rod yet though.

The rod I was looking at is the 6'9" model I belive. XH, 30-80 lbs and lure weight of 3-8oz. Thats the only muskie model that they show in there catalog. I would really like to see the 7'6" model though. They are selling the rod for just under $90. Cheers Jeff

I was at lebarons in markham and was looking at the new rapala rtype musky rods. Just wondering if anyone has tried them or any of the other rapala musky rods. Cheers Jeff

Anyone know how marvin gosse placed?

I have alot of luck trolling 10-20ft of ater using shallow invaders, grandma and jake lures. I troll the wind swept shorelines and have most of my luck on rough days. Cheers Jeff

There's some big smallies in missisauga lake. I have caught a few lakers in there as well. There are some really nice shoals in the southern part of the lake. Cheers Jeff

Lots of rods around $50 at lebarons. cheers jeff
