It seems to have some pop! Saw them scooting around pretty darn fast a couple of weeks ago.

How do you like that prop on your trolling motor? Thought about trying one.


The new prop is officially tested and approved. It’s surprisingly awesome. I’m getting a speed increase of 1 to 1.5 mph, with much better battery efficiency and negligible impact to torque. The only downside is that it ...

P.s. I had to McIver a pin and some washers to install (OEM TM pin and washer will not fit these) but it is simple

Nice job Big D. Good to hear that some of them are getting fatter.

Yes indeed, fun day yesterday at the Big B. Could not break the 3 lb mark but lost a few that were pretty big. Not too hot(yet)....perfect conditions.
Only a few boats....screw up with Ticketmaster. I am going to recommend that the City look into a different ticketing company(or way). Ticketmaster ...

Definitely looking healthier!! Good job to both you and Tommy

Question…why would they draft from an already low Morena and just leave Barrett be?

Drinking water......The City is trying to use all of it it has before buying from any of the Water Distributors because it has become so expensive. There is a point though that the water is tested and when levels become almost deadpool it dosen't test drinkable. I have my super tube with a motor ...

On it at 0-dark:30 and soon discovered just how much the water has dropped since mid July. Lots of structure and cover is up and dry with new submerged targets coming into play now being shallower. We had already decided to try a few new items and found yet another Pourboy recommendation is a winner ...

My 3rd ever trip to Barrett courtesy of Dfishin who sold me his ticket. Headed out before dawn with Pourboy , Early release , and CorsoEnthusiast . Always good to see those guys. I had planned on staying with Chris and Dave but after landing a couple of early fish in the dark, I lost them pretty ...

And a Crappie on a jig pic...

Heck yeah Dan! Nice job on Bass, Crappie and Bluegill!
Tight lines always amigo.

Great looking catch Dannicus!! At this time of the year, 28 is no slouch.

Just wanted to share a pic of a Barrett beauty caught today and PB by the way. Started at 4:40am fishing with my nephew. Ended the day with well over 50 between both of us. All clones 2-3 lb range and many dinks. All on DS, nedrig, small swim baits and occasional senko.

I thought you might catch 100 Bass, I haven’t been to Barrett in years, I can’t even remember how long it’s been.
I do remember the last time my buddy and I went we got SKUNKED believe it or not, it’s hard to believe.
Congrats are in order.

Totally fun morning! It was definitely slower Sunday than it was the previous weekend, but I managed 24 in about 5 hours which is still a great day at any other lake. After the wind got bad I fished off the shore at Pigs and managed a few more.

Always a great time fishing with @dannicus @Early ...

Great to see you guys out there. It sure made the morning go by quick telling our stories. :) Next time we need to bring breakfast.

I tried to force topwater and didn't get a lot of fish on it, I think plastics and jigs was the thing to use yesterday. They seem to be hovering a bit offshore in 15 ...
