    amen to that thought, my thoughts exactly

    I have been reading and posting on some of these derby rules and regulations. Simply put, there has to be rules and regulations that are strictly followed to keep an even playing field. The youth not being able to participate I was and still am against. The weigh in though, you have to pick a time to close. Weighing in the next morning might have guys out fishing all night when technically probably isn't a good idea. Just my 2 cents.

    John, thank you for this post. It is most informative.

    Yup. So now that we are on the subject of keeping fish, would like to see some fish "carriers, transporters, cooler setups"..I am thinking that my 48 QT cooler isnt gonna be adequate...

    It sounds like a ton of fun. I fish my local walleye tourneys here and ice fish tourneys.. I like the challenge and typically benefits a charity or a sportsmans group. What constitutes a team? Bascially whoever you want to bring with you I would take it.

    My boat VHF has 25W and 5W capability. I tested it out for the first time this past weekend with a cousin of mine who lives on the lake. He was using his handheld in his livingroom. We were roughly 5 miles away from each other, I was obviously on the water..We were not in the line of sight with each other either (i.e. some islands in between us). His handheld transmits at 5W. I could barely hear him, he was breaking up allot. He said that I was coming in clear as a bell..no issues. I also have an 8' antenna on the boat.

    Those are my two knots now. The wireline knot for my dipsey wire. polomar knot for connecting to all terminal tackle on mono and flourocarbod..oh, and albright knot for connecting leaders etc.

    I guess I should do myself a favor and download the regs before I go!
  20. Adk1
    Dang, and here I was gonna run one mono dipsey and one wire....
  21. Adk1
    So who constitutes a "pro"
  22. Adk1
    I have been learning some knots. I have always used the improved fishermans knot. I can tie it in the dark. I have been learning the polomar knot..I have also tied my 30lb big game to 18lb fluorocarbon leaders using the Albright knot. I have to rig up my wire rod for my dipsey. So I will basically tie direct to the dipsey using a wireline knot I guess.??

    I am with yeah there bud. I will be launching out of Mexico mid August. It will be my first trip to Lake O
  24. Adk1
    I will be launching out of Mexico mid August. So basically just head out into that 70' range and start fishing eh? Same setups, spoons, flasher/flies?
  25. Adk1
    So you don't back up the wire with mono or braid first?
