Put in at Wax crack of dawn this morning. Debris everywhere. Lake fairly clear of debris water stained yet not muddy. My buddy caught a few white bass in jumps I was skunked. Also some large mouth or...
I wear prescription glasses and a pair of prescription sunglasses runs runs into the $100's+. I wear a brand called cocoons over my script glasses that are great and run about $40. They are made to...
If your heading to Nolin I'd suggest Moutadier or however it's spelled. Wide ramp and not as tricky as Wax to navigate. Another thing about winter pool is running boat aground in the shallower water....
I use just a chunk of night crawler. I feel to much meat might throw off action of my jig. In my opinion a pinch is all it takes.
Lots of people walk the banks around Bacon Creek fishing for them. That's the $100 question as to when? You may also want to head on up to Broad Ford up river as there is bank access there also....
Was down there month or so ago tagged into some good white bass up tight by spillway. using white grub under a bobber. Had hard time fishing the bottom as I hung up to much. Once we made it below...
Yeah there's an edit option. Can't remember where? Oh I found it just have to go back once you submit I think?
I've got a friend who uses spinning reels and instead of cranking them like they are intended to be used he flips the rig right side up and reels the handle backwards! It works for him yet a odd site...
I know years ago maybe eon's it seems that walleye were plentiful in the spring in the Nolin river. Now they seem far and few. May be that strain of Erie walleye you mentioned years past. Who knows....
Man just out of curiosity I stuck a thermometer in the river this afternoon. Nolin river 52 miles above wax water temp 46 dg. Waters are warming up if they ever got cold to begin with? I'd go for it....
Nolin use to be prem-o for Walleye's guess supply and demand caught up with it. Mid February is when I usually start to look for them in the head waters of the lake. Upper Nolin River for Spurrier...
Typically they start heading up river round middle of February. I usually find them before the white bass start heading up stream. Have found them from wax as far up as Spurrier dam in the...
I have both left and right handed baitcasters. I prefer the left hand crank as I have lost a lot of fish with the right crank hand so far as hook setting.
Those live target lures work really great!!! However they are quite expensive. I have experience Paint chipping off and eyeballs falling out. Not from taking a beating from rocks or obstructions yet...
Don't know about the lake ,but the river is looking normal as I live upstream from the lake. Freind of mine fished up from Moutadier this week said water was in the high 40's to 50 late afternoon....
Seen that done and mines been grounded on the CR many a time. Made me think if your gonna ground it put some 3"or 4" pipes under it as this will allow it to roll instead of being dead weight on the...
The lower flow can be very good. Never have I thought fishin falling waters were good. Give it a day or so to settle down and the CR can be a very productive river. Although I'll cover 10 to 15 miles...
Been on my mind also. Noticed they cut the flow down to around 4,000 few days ago yet opened it back up. Not fond of the 20,000 but give me 15,000 or less and I'm a going!
Well kudos for us. Heard that Cabin Creek was shutting down and been meaning to ask this board about it. Getting harder to find Cabin Creek Popeyes. Just do me a favor and I'll stay a loyal customer...
For real black hair red head is one of my favorites. Don't leave home with out it.
My want list just got bigger.
Far out man yeah I've tried other brands and they just don't hold up. Was told by guy at bait store they were shutting down as they have not responded to him. Changing hands may be the cause of that....
been using cabin creek popeyes for umteen years. having hard time finding them. Was told cabin Creek is out of business? Anyone heard word of this? Their popeyes could take a lickin and keep on...
Hit the nail on the head. Grounding big issue. some use the trailer tongue and ball for grounding as some use the white wire.
I kinda got tired of bass pro's shipping charge. takes them a good week or so to ship. I been using gander mountain as their shipping is free and usually have it in 3 or 4 days. granted they don't...
Geez Oh Pete!
I will go out of my way to stay out of a Wal-Mart. I don't mind paying a little extra to support the smaller guy.
Been knocking em in the head at Roundstone. Pink Popeye in the riffells.
Past few weeks have been with my father who pasted away Sat. night. An Army man WWII, Korea and 3 times Vietnam Vet. 27 yrs. retired soldier. Just wanted to say that the brotherhood of the veterans...
Rule of thumb is a 30 amp on a #10 awg wire. You are sizing the wire for protection as not the motor. Over sizing can create heat which can lead to fire. A fuse is my recommendation as you are more...
Sounds good don't forget the walleye and white bass runs up here also. I'll start looking for them walleye next month as they tend to start showing up in mid February or so. Someones gotta clean it...
I was gonna say if you got skunked down something definitely wrong. Were the cow's laying down?
Oh well what can we do, but wait? Get er done!
I have for years been wanting to through my kayak in and head on down to where it dumps into the Nolin. i am some what limited to the areas I fish down there. Have been hitting it up since the early...
Went back to Roundstone late afternoon one shy of catching my limit. water up a foot or so trout were scattered.
Sounds like a good idea til one of them officials takes a little money under the table. Proof's in the pudding.
And don't forget the $$ you'll save verses other lures.
Been seeing a pair down there for about the past five tears. Always make at least one trip down there in the winter. Water was a bit murky at the spillway and didn't get a whole lot better down by...
I'd say they probably know about it as these guys been there for years. Pretty dependable birds. Will follow up on it an let them know.
Colder this am than yesterday fer sure nothing like the numbness in your frozen fingers. Launched boat at spillway thinking trout none found. Changed tactics and tied into 9 fat white bass. Worked...
Headed to Roundstone this morning. Every cow I saw was standing up. Took my waders determined to limit out on trout today. Planned on hitting every pool I knew. Trout very cooperative today threw a...
TIP= To insure perfect service.
Speaking of swamped, Bacon Creek some 15 miles or so above Wax is an accessible boat ramp. Swift shallow water as your larger boats like 0927SC probably won't be able to put in on this ramp at...
Thanks for the tip I'll stay upper Nolin in the head waters to avoid being swamped.
No real answer to this one. A foul hooked fish doesn't stand much a chance when released. The stress evolved with landing a fish can also be a killer. Just wonder how many do survive after being...
I been getting a little fluffier here the past few years. Reckon I need to quit eatin them rainbows?
Fits a smaller ranger type pickup. Kobalt great shape narrow style yet deep. Aluminum I think I know it doesn't have any rust. Used by my son to haul skateboards and stuff. $40 obo or swap for just...
Thanks Flyfish coming back for lunch sounds a good deal. Might have to try that also. We usually stay out all day sometimes into the night. Put a phone call in to her yesterday .
Although this has nothing to do with wetting a line was wondering if anyone has ever stayed at that little rental place at Winfrey's Ferry and what they thought about it. For the past um-teen years...
