That's better than "Road Kill" Nice job guys.

Welcome back Matt

Looks like a great day to me Steve. Thanks for sharing.

Mine is a GM 305. So not sure what ford did.

I have a file and a wet stone to sharpen all my hooks, and find that to be good enough.

That fish makes Roger look small

My Tiara is a 1979, The previous owner was using a lead substitute until a mechanic told him he did not need to. Shortly there after he burned up the valve guides. It was around 78-79 when they motors where designed to not use lead.

Hi Dan, welcome to the site.

Sweet.

Sweet!

Nice mix of fish there Ed.

So true^^^

Most will recommend to stay away from the older OMC drives.

Nice way to start the season Nick.

Like Ryan, I have like the Maui Jim's They are made for the water. They are divided into 3 parts. The center part is lighter than the upper, and lower. When out on the water you get reflection from above, and off the water. This is what is nice about the Maui Jims. They have added protection from glare, with out cutting off all light straight away. I went fot for for the Island Time. http://www.mauijim.com/islandtimes.html

Jason, welcome to the site.

All great advice. Welcome to the site Tracy

Blood Run has 2000 yd spools. I used it last year, with good results.

Welcome aboard Darrel

Good idea. I once fill a empty bottle with the warm water to use as a hand warmer. Now I just wait till is summer to fish

Welcome aboard Reid.

Adam, say active on the board as the fishing season gets under way. There are a lot of guys in the area that often need riders. Welcome to the site. Walleye season is closed inshore rite now, but is open on Lake Michigan. Post spawn fish can be caught off the pier later this month.

My copper setups consist of 2 each of; 150 32# 200 32# 250 32# 300 32# 250 45# 300 45# This covers the water column every 10' starting at 30' My favorite one is the one that targets the zone where the fish are. Generally there are fish in the 40-60' down range, so the most used is the 250, and 300' 32#. I'm going to rig up a 300' 60# to see what that will do.

Thanks for the update. Welcome to the site.

good dtuff there Matt.
