I would arm wrestle for a chance like that but I'm on da udder side of da lake.

Ewig Bros is the place to go for the specialty smoked fish products. You will be impressed with the new park going in where the coal pile used to be.

Smith bros is now a coffee shop and Newport is still very nice.

Went back with the wife today,hit the deep water at noon and took a 10 fish limit on the 6 colr bn rv and pearl coyote w/ bull frog down 51...=ran the same track, surface was up 10 degrees but fish were still there.....sweeeeeeeeet ><>

Finally had a good day out of Port,ran out to the deep water and found some coho and rainbow. 135 degree heading for 9.5 miles. Its fun when every rod in a 11 rod spread takes a hit.

Hot baits were moonshine rv bloody nose and crab face and DW SS double orange with gold tape and mixed veggies.f/f on a rigger down 61 and a dypsy 3 set out 121. 14 for 25 ><> 9 bows and rest coho.

He's exactly right at under $1000 you can not buy a better unit. 7 inch touchscreen with a 1000watt sonar and the best gps on the market regardless of price, one very strong unit.

Just one tip, do not buy the 300 watt transducer get at least the 600 watt p66 to take full advantage of the sonar.

I did what Ryan suggested with the P66...:thumb::thumb:

Unbelievable difference in size of transducers from what I had..

I'm extremely happy with my Garmin 740S from Calumet Marine and it works under an aluminum hard top.

Thanks Russel for the live/tapped report.

Waukegan last sunday 30' of water.. I would think you might find a few along the state line.

If they don't sell I have 2 buyers lined up as of this afternoon.

In place of the red or16 I use these : ThePinClip.com ..they are more user friendly a couple of ways for old fingers and have a brass pin thats a little longer and easier to see if you have your line around it.

I would buy a 6oz torpedo diver and attach just after your 5 colors are out. Then let out required amount of line to achieve your desired depth.

Use a pinch pad with a center pin to attach to your line.

My2sons, I went through the same scenario your going through now. I did go play at the stores with all the competition.I have used my buddies Lowrance stuff, I had Eagle FF and gps.

I bought a Garmin 740s from Frank/Calumet Marine(site sponsor)..flat out best deal and his son Hondam rocks as far as knowledge and sharing info that I could understand.

I was also looking for a unit to add radar down the road.

Iron sights will work, red dot is nicer:grin:

3" should be sufficient

the most important thing to do is pattern test to see where the pattern is going.

Nick, Good luck on the shoulder surgery. I can relate to that. I hope yours turns out as well as mine has.

Good luck as well, been there twice, both turned out well but I have since ripped one up AGAIN.....grrr. the million dollar question is when to have the surgery......definitely not now, I missed one spring/early summer season.

Not affiliated, just thought I would share.

I noticed they have teaser flys tied onto the line in front of the actual fly with the hook. Where are these available? I have been looking all over the web for them, but haven't found anything yet.

Try Big Weenie, they have them.http://www.bigweeniebrand.com/

I like the tdr's but my .02 the mh is a bit stiff

Gale Force pink panties

We see them every spring and fall in the shallows and some are very good sized. At these times they seem fairly easy to target. The question is where are they in the summer? Has anyone targeted them in the summer anyone with good success or is it just a stumble upon one or 2?

On the west side of the lake we look for them where the thermocline(when it sets up) meets the bottom or around structure.

Some days every 15 minutes if I know the fish are there and active and I'm not getting hits.

If any of you guys get to the WI side check out the local Fleet Farms, they have exclusive RV sereies moonshine colors that really rock.

I even take it off for fish boils. Some if it will flake a little the real thin pieces on the edge but for as long as its in the water to just cook it through i havent had any problem with it falling apart. I use fillets not steaks when doing a fish boil.

skin off for boils as well, those spring coho hold together just fine in the kettle.
