We missed you!

At the lake at 6. Had to wait to launch. WHAT!!!. I asked some guys chatting what brings you here to Vinny's Lake. They said El Cap is closed so we came here. I think it was 9 boats.
Anyway I played with the busters and was fun nothing over 2 1/2 with 13 of them. I tried hard for those fish ...

Thanks for the report and sounds like a good day. I want to hit up El Cap, but I have a couple thinks I want to do to my tube first.

Great report! You have the fluke down. Congrats on some bigger ones. It's been fun running into you and Theo this season. Maybe see you on some other lakes now.

Good report. Put some scent on it . Would be nice to travel that far. Don't know how far I can go (YET).

What are you doing to it?

First I'm replacing my 30# with a 45# thrust motor, a little deck work and oar placement. I purchased just the motor, a lot cheaper then a whole TM even used. I want to make sure I can buck the wind. The deck has a little space that seems to suck items off the ...

I had already taken the trolling motor off. it mounts on the motor mount in the rear.

I was the same, can't wait to see it and then this. Well you got my heart pumping. It's coming.

Got there at sunrise and not many boats. Got some info to go back to any of the big coves. Went into harvey arm about 3/4 of the way back, I found them. They were not busting, they would not hit anything and not really follow the baits. Funny thing boats started coming in and at 8:30 bam. Busting ...

Do you know the range of the new tube? I'm going try my tube tomorrow at El Cap and don't think I will travel far first trip. I have traveled from pigs to the back of Hauser and back no problem. I now have 45# thrust and will have to see how it acts.

Is that a leach on the carp?

I was there monday and a gunfish use to be one of my favorite top water baits but i got nothing. I need some lessons.

I took my tube out for a test after doing a few things. Biggest is changing my 30# thrust motor to a 45#. As i was setting up the tube i found that I had forgot my FF mount. So I'm fishing blind. Not knowing how my new motor would do with my battery I took off across the lake to the left of the 2 ...

Depends on the motor, what you are pushing and wind. I myself don't think I would try it, just from what I tracked on Monday. I went just over 3 1/2 miles and had 56% of my battery left. That is also using the motor to stay in a spots and chasing busters. Looking on google maps it's at least 3 1/2 ...

Looks like a nice place. Nice and calm.

I call BFS! Congrats. BFS is all I'm throwing now, unless throwing the frog, rat or kitchen sink.

Thanks for the report. The Indians have free range back there.
It has to be fall, is changing them. We still have to find them. There is no way fishing pressure has anything to do with it. It's more like they are in shock from the lack of pressure.

That's a bummer! I hope you are feeling better. The fish will miss you.
