Where are you a Fireman at? Maybe I can help you out and give you a few pointers.
It's the system the state uses to register vehicles. When you pay your taxes or transfer a title at the clerks office it the system they are entering info into. It's tied to the system used by law...
Another possibility is a best prop. That will definitely cause a rattling or vibration feeling.
Where is your land? I live practically on the creek. I have fished it for years and it is a good time floating it. Some of the best muskie fishing around. Lots of small bass and pan fish.
As others have said check for nicks and retie often. I am extremely happy with BPS XPS Flouro....
We caught 6 Tuesday in shallow water. Nothing under 12" and nothing over 20" so take that for what it's worth. It was our first time there.
Lack of vegetation is probably the biggest issue. The lake holds good fish, however you have to be able to confidently fish in 30 feet of water to catch them. Up the river in deep water or all the...
Where you fishing with minnows? Did you all try fishing up into Long Bow?
I don't know how Sunday went but it took a little over 3 lbs to make the cut. 81 boats in the field but only 27 weighed fish. It was some very tuff conditions.
Are two anglers required per boat or is solo entries allowed?
Most people run a 25" Renegade 4 blade on those, Not the fastest but a great all around prop.
24" Raker "original" is a fast prop and has good hole shot. These are the 2 most common props found on...
How did your fishing trip go?
I think you will do just fine if you stay in the Longbow area right now. That place seems to always produce. I would stick with minnows and straight line. You are going...
Any one know of any open Cve Run or Grayson Lake Tournaments? Or any others in the area?
Anyone fishing there? Where are you putting in at? The land I was using to access it was sold and I lost rights to it.
The best answer is sometimes. I run 2 Hummingbird side scans with no issues. However it has been widely reported that interference between the 2 units can occur. Most of the time I turn console one...
It does effect them as it can cause over runs and uneven respools which will effect your casting consistancy. I use fluoro for everything other than top water and my heavy timber setups. You get much...
It's a good set up. I have 8 pro qualifer reels on my boat. For the money they can hold their own against any reel on the market. Im not a big fan of BPS rods as I have broke several, but thats not...
It stretches the line out and resets the memory in the line. Fluorocarbon has a lot of memory when it comes off the spool and it causes the line to twist. If your using a spinning reel this can cause...
Find the weed beds and probe them in the evening with soft plastics, then top water over them till dark. Good luck I will be out in the morning trying my luck....
The morning bite was pretty good I hooked 3 but only got one in the boat. I lost an absolute pig on top water bait early. Everything died after 1030 and picked back up again when the big winds came....
I will be out in the morning to fish it if the rain holds off. The weather definately plays a big factor on that lake. Also if the spillway is pulling water hard it tends to pull the fish off the...
I have been using XPS 12-14lbs with the polymer knot for years. I have never had an issue before. I rarely ever break a line on a hook set. I might have done so 2 or 3 times over the last 5 years....
I would recommend fishing out of the Longbow ramp. There are millions of stick ups and downed trees. This area always produces crappie and has fair bass production. The area can be dangerous when...
5/0 wide gap for me as well. If your fishing deep then I would use a Trokar hook because it is much sharper than other brands. When you have that much line off you want to make sure that if that hook...
Don't think there would be one on the engine. It should be behind the dash or near the control box.
They were pulling the lake hard. There was a Fire School going on and they were using the spillway for swift water training.
I agree with most everything said. However I would throw in the use of quality electronics. When things slow down and the fish pull off the banks I switch to locating them in deeper water with the...
It's been fair, lake temp was 70 yesterday. Pulled a few keepers off deep laydowns. Chartruse spinner baits parallel to the laydowns had been working for me.
After a quick conversation with a state biologist he assures us that we are doing no damage by taking fish off the nest. Study after study has confirmed this and there is no scientific data that...
This such a hot topic among anglers and really it's a personal choice. Science and research simply does not support this theory. I quick search of the intenet will show arguments for both sides. Here...
What is the status of the Bass spawn in your lake?
I fish Kinni often. As above posted fish for bass and the muskie will find you. They will typically be in the deeper pools as the creek warms up. We catch them on lipless crank baits and top water...
Yes this is a fact in Ky. You can float it, but not wade it with out permission. You are allowed to portage the boat across obstructions or shallows, but must return to boat as soon as possible.
Tell me more about these tournaments. I live about 20 minutes from there and didn't know of these. Any information would be great.
I change mine every year. However if it has never been used or out in the sun I would say it is just fine.
The old Bass Pro are junk and they admitted that. They just came out with new model that is complete redesigned. My older one just died it was about a year old and they swapped it out for a new last...
Those motor have been trouble. What is wrong with it? Did you lose one of the top cylinders? Even as parts they aren't worth much. I have seen them sell for about a grand with one or 2 cylinders...
Reguardless of this whole discussion no one should be drinking and driving a boat or any vehicle for that matter. And I LOVE my beer......but I know when the right time to drink is and isn't....
when on the water push the key primer and see if it picks up. If it doesn't more than likely it's electrical. If it's electrical and you don't have experence working on boat motors take it to a pro....
If it have a electric primer on it push it a few times while trying to excellerate. If it helps then you have a fuel issue if it doesn't then it's electrical.
What were you using? I fished the other day and blanked out with deep cranks. Then the next day caught a few non keepers pitching a jig and one on a wacky senko.
There are many lakes across the US that limit the number of boater by limiting the number of parking spaces. I'm not saying I agree with it but they do it and it works.
Cave Run has a big tourny that day.
Universal Mania is by far the cheapest site I have seen. I have several friends who have bought from them and have had no complaints.
1198: $2350.00
998: $1650.00
898: $1230.00

I use them for my 997c. I had to get the bobs jackplate mount then drill it to fit mine. I have a hydro motion jackplate and they dont make a direct mount for it. They are nice and a wise investimate...
Should have the lake to yourself that time of year.
Scotts creek was open the other day
Part of it was a few days ago. The main channel however was open.
Thanks after talking to him I believe I will be taking my motor there this or next week.
