Killin' It

6 steelhead:) woot woot:)

Sign me up!!!

Ben, I dont have to work call me.

Has anyone or does anyone use the pilot to keep their small boat on course. I am looking for something to keep the boat straight when fighting a fish/netting a fish on the nice days. I have heard of people using them, just never knew anyone that has so I could question them. http://www.minnkotamotors.com/products/accessories/ipilot/freshwater.aspx

Tim, do you need help with anything else? Jenn and I plan on being around for this. Plus I need to unload stuff to make room for some new stuff;)

Awifes would work better wait for them to come to the piers and get the cast net out and go out about midnight...

The dash of the boat works good too.... throw them up there at about 3 pm put them down about 6... glow like a champ.

Are you looking for the Diver one? If so I will sell you mine or trade from some J plugs. I dont use it anymore.

Got mine from the outdoorsman as well going to add a second one this spring.

I use a 20 dollar UV light I found at the outdoorsman in Jenison

my 02. I take a picture of a cooler.. the cooler is going to have 4 things... 1. Empty beer cans from my crew 2. Ice 3. Fish 4. If the cooler has fish its going to have blood... I am not taking the picture of the cooler to show off the blood, but to show off the fish. When I take a picture at the launch I am not going to clean each fish off, it comes from the cooler to the hook. I grew up cleaning animals and I am a firm member of PETA.... PEOPLE EATING TASTY ANIMALS!! I not sure how many weird looks I got living in the appartments before my wife and I owned a home, but I would clean fish right out front, I would clean up everything and bring the guts away to my grandfolks. (no fish cleaning station at the time) I did my best to keep the mess to as little area as possible. I had been confronted multiple times about how kids should not see this kind of thing.

Silver J plug is a good one:)

I belive the uv makes a differance.... HOWEVER.... LOCO'S are the way to go:)

Moonshine Mongolian Beef I could not catch a cold with that spoon, but Ben puts the hurt on them!!

Convectors all the way here other than the rigger rods. (2 rigger rods still have diawas on them)

Ben, Sounds like you spent some time on my boat.... Green slush was good on the 200 and 250 as Ben said sunny days. Mixed Veggie was good on the 5 color no matter what. Moonshine DT and BF were good down deep early on Craigs x mas and Confusion were rigger baits stacked on each other with a scooter clip. 40-60 down. The frog baits.... 10 feet off the bottom 50-100 feet back on the riggers after 10 am. Talked to BLL about the new colors and: "We are working on the updates for the new colors for 2012 and our new catologe will also have them in it. It will be do by the first of spring. The web by the end of the month." Dave

Ben.... Ben... Ben.... the truth hurts... We wont talk about the Mix blue Veggie on the shore core or the Green slush then will we?

Mixed Blue Veggie is on the UV site... as for the other colors... send Larry an email. They were custom painted for me.. as they were my fav. from other companies that no longer paint spoons.

Pay attention to the lure on the far right.... Never came off the 350 it took a beating!! I only use Owner hooks.... I am still looking for some single's that I like.

Bored and sick of winter and just wanted to share... Out of those 10, Patriot was the go to spoon down deep and Mixed veggie never came off the 5 color.

A great NYE spent safe at home:)

Anyone know anyone with referances that repaints boats.. I would like to get mine done this spring.

I have 200 pounds so when the thaw starts I can dump it on the piles of snow at the storage place.... I also have been working on setting up my carp fishing gear for spring:) Fishing the river in Jan. cant be beat either for steelhead.

... and I am not sure why... ;( I am going to have to try and run them Loco style:)

Jimmy, What way should we be fishing your spoons, your pictures have the hooks on both ends... Big end or little end first?
