  1. There’s a free app called Marine Traffic that feeds AIS data in real time from the big ships….you can scroll though all sorts of stuff about the freighters including on board wind, wind direction and temp updated by the minute, gives a great snapshot of what’s going on out there as long as there’s a ship near where you want to fish….and there usually is!
  2. Terrible! Boat is still in a barn, hopefully getting afloat this week, there were lots of boats working the mud line and a few out around 100-200 fow
  3. Just left Wilson, flat lake
  4. Just left Wilson, flat lake
  5. I’ve had the Big Papa bags for 8 years, a bit less expensive, stow a bit easier, holding up just fine
  6. I had the same problem, was scary to dock the boat while putting everything I had to turn the helm. If you’ve already got hydraulic steering a pump is the way to go IMO
  7. 25 foot Trophy pro with twins, love it, have curtains etc. but truthfully rarely put them on. Handles everything the lake has thrown at her so far, very fishable
  8. I’ve been using one for a couple years, and clip it to the rigger to send them back down. Works great. Also attached a lanyard to go around my wrist while clipping the fish to the rigger to avoid donating more hardware to the deep!
  9. Getting flatter by the minute near Wilson, I see a few boats out
  10. Same for us, shallow, deep, west, east, just put something colorful at 55 and you’ll get some steelies. Lots of bait and marks, no takers
  11. I snap this on their jaw, then clip to the downrigger and send them back down to where the temp and pressure give them their best chance. Can’t prove it works as you’ll never see a floater but makes sense to me... https://seaqualizer.com
  12. I used this depth sensitive release all last season, clipped to the downrigger cable, worked perfectly and released at the set depth, usually 50 ft. Have to believe it made a difference. https://www.seaqualizer.com
  13. There’s an app called Marine Traffic that gets real time feeds from the AIS on the big boats, very accurate wind data and a map overlay...blue fishable, other colors not so much. It’s also fun the see pics, destination etc. of those big freighters as they go by....
  14. Thanks for the reports, how are the waves out there?
