  1. Fished 6-1230 in the SHFL with Fishwhisperer and Eliminator. Ended 6 for 8 with 3 kings and 3 coho. Big king was 18#. Picked up 3 in 90fow before 715. Headed west and picked a coho at 144 and a king at 165. Another king at 124 coming back in. Weather turned out pretty decent.

    350' 45# copper 2-kings, UV Mixed Veg and MS NBK looking thing

    Congrats to Reel Happy on the win!

  2. Ended 18 for 21 with Fishwhisperer, Sushi Man and SeaMac. 12 lakers, 5 kings and a Ho. 50-55fow straight out was best. 2.2 mph, north troll by far best. Riggers down 55-61ft with Stinger "Crazy Rays" was best for lakers. 200 and 225' copper with MS Mongolian Beef casting spoon took the kings. 1 on dipsy. 6 color and full core took hits too i believe.3 really nice spring kings. They were quite feisty! Fishwhisperer managed to catch that sweet steelie in the marina:eek: What a beautiful day on the water with good friends, cold beer and a flat lake. :grin::thumb:

    Went 3 for 7 on a short trip Sunday morn. Had to bail early.Fishing was getting better mid day. Light bites.

  3. Picked up this fair lady last summer and have been getting her ready. 1987 SeaRay Weekender 230. Currently rigged with Great Lakes Planer quad trees, berts ratcheting holders and 3 cannon manuals on tracks. Picked up Lowrance Elite 7 gps/fishfinder this spring. Also put Lowrance Elite 4 color graph in the back for the rigging crew. New marine radio, batteries, onboard charger and alot of TLC. Thinking "Little Dipper"

    Added a little fisherman to the family last summer and ready to fish this year! Finally got her up and running well thanks to some great friends. Slipped in SH. Looking for some AM fishing partners during the week for the summer if anyone is interested PM me ur number.

  4. Fished 830 -1230 outta SH. Set lines in front of piers. Hooked one small king, released. 3 color Crazy Bitch Super Slim Spoon. Fished south to plant and back. No other hits. Stayed in 15-22fow. Water temps 44deg everywhere. Stayed in dirty water whole time. Some did get lakers out deeper. Lots of frost on a chilly 20deg morn. Calendar says April 21, mother nature says March 21st.

    Good to get the shakedown trip in. Broke rod and lost cannon ball. Ahh its the cost of fishing.:P

  5. 400'

    350'

    300'

    250'

    225'

    200'

    150'

    225' was really hot 2 yrs ago. Didnt really fish lat year.

    All 45# is what is ran on my boat. Can't wait to have achance to ever run any rods this year. Darn weather. Should out of SH tomorrow but not sure the copper will see the water!

  6. Put in 23' on Sunday. Had the truck tires in the water and there was maybe 3' behind the swim platform. Def some shallow spots in the river. As Dan said take that corner really wide over to where the docks are. Marina was reading 2.6-1.8 on the fishfinder. Some slips have a foot of water.

  7. Was playing with the Elite 7 today and saw the NMEA 2000 connect in the back. I have no plans of connecting anything else and happy so far.

    Im trying to hook up Elite 7 to my new Uniden marine radio, NMEA 183 connect I believe. I cross referenced the 2 brochures however they don't match. Uniden says connect Lowrance's black wire to their green, there is no black wire:no:

    Try again in the light tomorrow. Thought it would be great to have radio distress set in case ever needed.

  8. carb. rebuild, Elite 7 combo mounted, onboard charger install, replaced back wood with synthetic, new tracks in back and new trees, new marine radio, hatch gaskets, replace bad switches, added 3rd rigger, another spoon box....... apparently i should be working now that i have so much to do!!!

    Looking forward to 1st summer off with my little guy.
