I just recently put a hook reveal9ts on my boat and spent the week in the thousand islands area. The contour map that is already on the unit leaves a lot to be desired. I would like to get a micro sd card to put in it with better contour maps. Can anyone give me some advice on a good brand and model chip for the area up there?

That would be great if they are spawned out and moved deeper before season opened up. After the last few seasons of a late spawn they need a break in my opinion.

Does anyone know what stage of the spawn the smallies are in for the most part? I'm really hoping that they have mostly spawned and moved back out deep before opening day rolls around. It just kills me to ride around that beautiful river only to see boat after boat sitting shallow ripping big girls off their beds. I will be like a kid in a candy store getting ready to spend a week on the greatest place on earth.

I fish a lot here in central Pa. on the Juniata river which is a trib to the Susquehanna. We have seen the exact same thing here and I feel the water quality is better than it has been for many many years. I talked to a PAFBC guy this spring and he said they were going to do a study and see if they could figure out what was happening to the walleye's. I think one of the biggest problems is that they are so dang good to eat that as soon as they get close to legal size they get harvested.

Had the pleasure of spending all last week on the river. While we had a couple rough days fishing because of the weather we were still able to catch a boat load of fish. We mainly fished for bass in the mornings and afternoons then turned to eyes in the evening. Every trip in the boat we had enough activity to keep it interesting with some real excitement mixed in. I was able to witness the largest fresh water fish I've ever layed eyes on one evening when a musky tried to steal an eye from me. We were able to get the entire thing on video so that made it perfect. I'm 100% sure the fish was ATLEAST 55" and probably pushing 60". We ended the week going in to Clayton to watch the Elite's for a weigh-in. I know most of you guys on here don't care for tourney fishing but this was definatly something that every fisherman should attend some time. I sure hope that this fishery stays thig good for my grandson to enjoy when he gets older.

We spent all last week in the A bay area and amazingly enough didn't loose one hour of fishing due to weather. The bass fishing was rather tough this year. Not sure if it was the constant north east wind that had them shut down or just in a spawning funk. Surprisingly enough we were able to find a school of eyes that stayed in the same spot all week. My son and I were able to boat 12 nice eyes and lost a few more. I know that doesn't sound like a bunch to some of you guys but for us, catching eyes on that river is a blast and we were very happy with that number of fish. I cant wait until August to come back for another week.
