Is that the average wieght for the winning box ?? My guess was it would be 7 to 8 lbs. Where can I look at the results of todays shootout?? Been all over internet found nothing. Thanks

Whats the Red can ? do you mean the Seneca shoal buoy? what

Yeah GI means Grand Island. Were gonna hit it again on Monday probably goin to Catt NW to Center Rd. area 65-75 fow. History says they should be there. We'll see.

We drove to Barcelona last Sunday walleye fishing was great. Had 24 in boat by 10:30am. Its just such a long drive from GI. We did clean our fish at Hanover. Busy at the cleaning station some were coming from Barcelona others from Catt creek area. Question is when will the Eyes really start turning on in Catt creek area ?? Or have they already and no one talking. Usually Center Rd area in 65-75 fow is great this time of year. We're just out for fun and trying to fill the freezer. Not in any derby.

Once you locate walleye your time is better spent trolling IMHO. Once lake temp hits about 65 alot of eyes start suspending in 40-65 fow. You'll see them on your graph 20-50 ft down. A 4,5 or 7 color leadcore with a stickbait is a winning combination. Troll at 2.0-2.4 and you'll get em. Good luck.

Well I've had some issues with Fish Hawk over past few years. I've lost count of how many probes they've given me all covered under warranty. I know for a fact I'm on probe #3 in a 1 year period. I know someone else thats had a similar experience. His thery is they out source the manufacture of Probes to some 3rd world country. During the Pandemic there were quality issues with the manufacture of these probes. They know this and are being very generous in giving people new probes. On the positive side the FH is a great tool and I love it when it works they way it should. They really stand behind there product. Warranty and customer and are great. My latest new probe worked great this past Sunday. Hopefully thats the end of this nightmare.

I use the 16 lb torpedo rigger wieghts. Traxtech makes a nice cradle/holder for these wieghts . It slides right into there track. I've got 3 of them on my boat. They have been great for 10 years +.

Another great report Gill-T ! You finding them east or west of 18 mile? How many FOW? I'm still a month away from 1st trip. Jealous.

Cograts on a great 1st day !! Looking at your pics kinda looks like your boat is an I/O with a dog house in back floor area. Mine is too. Now that water is in your block (not antifreeze) are you worried about below freezing temps that will still probably see in days ahead ? Or maybe you have heated storage or do you drain your block ? I'm also assuming your a trailer guy like me. Just curious

Great post! Worry about you being solo this time of year but i take my hat off to ya!

Yes its a 3 blade. Also a mistake in previous post motor is 4.3 liter. Good luck.
