Mentor Lagoons 6/23/09


Recommended Posts

Well we made it out again yesterday afternoon/evening.

All the chatter on the radio was the fish are in 60-70 fow.

Well, I decided to setup in 40 and poke around and see what was there.

Not 2 minutes into the troll nice 4 lb eye on a dipsey ith a small stinger (frog pattern?)

As we headed into deeper waters, we began to mark huge schools of perch on and near the bottom. Lot's of BIG fish hangin around those schools too.

We played around with different presentations, finally trying a 30 jet, with an Erie dearie behind it.

Don't laugh, it took a 28" fish Ohio walleye !

We ended up in 62 fow and then headed in with some really nice fish in the box.

When we made it to the harbor, noticed that we were running a little warm, by the time I got to the dock, it was running HOT !

Got tied up and let the engine run and cool off, at idle.

Opened the hatch to inspect, and found I am the new owner of a cracked exhaust manifold.

Good thing I got those extra engine parts on sale really cheap last year.

Will change out the manifold and post some fishy porn later on, can't do it from here. Says I don't have the proper privilages (lol)

Nice job on the fish Bill. Hows your water pump?

Water pump seems ok, but the exhaust manifold has a hole in it, got another one to put on it tomorrow.

Will post my findings after I get it apart.
