  1. people sleep on your boat while fishing???... man... you need to whip your crew into shape! haha
  2. Great stuff, Luke!
  3. Have had my Yeti 75 since 2008... 65 for 2.5 years, and got the 125 this year. Short of dragging it behind your truck for 5 hours, throwing it off a cliff, then putting it in the campfire, I don't see how you can hurt the things. The warranty thing is probably pretty moot. Don't you have a walk around Proline? The 65 (or others) don't fit at the bow walkaround area? Yeti has extremely accurate dimensions on their website for each model. If you don't need the cooler in the next 2 weeks, here is the link where I bought my last 2 Yeti's. You'll rarely find a Yeti cheaper than MSRP anywhere... this site saves you some $ and is legit. It just takes about 2 weeks to get the cooler. No Tax. Free Shipping! https://www.discountbandit.com/yeti-tundra-65-cooler-white.html
  4. Have a Yeti 65, 75, and 125. tough as heck... love them things. Hold ice for a 3-day weekend the whole time while sitting in the sun all day and actively using it all weekend. We use them all mostly for drinks/food. Yeti 65 (blue) fits perfectly on the smaller boat on the bow strapped down to the deck. Yeti 75 (tan) is at camp and is used for beer and sometimes bagged fish for friends/family that are visiting to take home. Yeti 125 (white) is on our larger boat which holds all our drinks/food and lots of bags of ice to put on the fish in the fish box when needed. A warm beverage is not acceptable on my boat.
  5. Fishing inactive fish doesn't yield a lot of action... waiting game... gotta hit it when they "wake up" and decide to play. Sometimes get lucky and get one or two to commit. Temps in Henderson were 70+ on Sunday... surface temps in the shipping lanes were mid 60s... the whole lake was shocked over the last week with the rapid thermal climb. Have never seen so many people swimming in May... unreal.
  6. Here's my latest.... May 30th Video: https://youtu.be/QSC4-KBGDbc

  8. Few more pics... went North and got the staredown from Canadian authorities for a few hours as we fished no closer than 1 mile from the border... bugs were awful. Some Pig Lakers out there. Lost 2 others 1 felt like a teenage King. Mag Dipsey on 1 setting out 130-150 with spinny/fly and short coppers and a 10 color with spoons did the damage.
  9. For those who use Big Boards: Enough so that the knot between the core/copper and backer is submerged under water. That lead length will vary depending on where it is on the planer tow line. Longer leads the closer to the boat due to tow line elevation.
  10. I'm starting to capture footage on my outings in 2016 and have put together 2 videos so far. Hope you all enjoy! More to come... May 1st: https://youtu.be/CiK0mrc14MQ May 15th: https://youtu.be/OjtFMa-6hD0
  11. Latest Video is finished. My 2nd one. It's uploaded in HD so up the quality on the YouTube video settings if you'd like! Enjoy! YouTube:
  12. Been a while since I posted... here's a few pics from the last week or two. Picked up our first King of the year today. Good stuff.
  13. Can't wait to pull these this weekend! Good stuff, Dave!
  14. With the exception of this year, Browns have been awesome out of this area in April/May. Walleye fishing is arguably the best in Lake O. We catch a lot of Steely's, Lakers and spring Kings in May/June chasing bait in shallow water (<100'). July is shipping Lanes for Kings or Shoals for Walleye. August/Sept is the trench for staging Kings. I don't bass or perch fish so I wouldn't know but hear a lot of complaints from many that perch has been on the decline while Bass is the opposite. We catch a lot of bass while trolling for Walleye. Annoying. Lots of Pike in our area too for those who enjoy that. A lot of diversity in the fishing on the upper East end and when things get rough, there are a lot of areas that remain fishable due to the seclusion of all the Bays.
  15. I have different boats that can be ran in certain conditions depending on weather, type of fishing, and the amount of people that I'm taking out (including when I want to fish solo). It's nice to have options... some of them more economical than others.
  16. you'll find 41-42deg water there.
  17. Awesome fish, Luke! That thing had to put up quite a fight! Thanks for sharing!
  18. Fishing the opener, PAP? If so good luck.
  19. Might get lucky but the broad consensus would be a big No right now. Ice cold clear water.
