I agree. I think it's complete bull$hit. I don't have a problem with the FLW per say but I think what fish and wildlife did by changing the size limit is terrible. Supposedly on Cumberland and...

Do you guys pull live bait on planar boards or artificial? I have a fold and troll and four boards but really don't know what I am doing with them. I tried it a couple times without any success and...
I haven't heard anything about it in a while. One rumor I had heard was whoever was interested in taking over wanted some restrooms and stuff put in and the county wouldn't go for it. I don't know...
That's kind of what I was thinking. I wish they would cut down on the amount of boats! I went once last year during the week and it was crazy. I'd rather drive to cumberland anymore.
The navionics card with sonar charts has the lake with contour lines. It's made from users submitting sonar recordings. It's not bad. I think you can actually view it online through the web app
I have heard that Wilgreen marina is selling all their stuff half off and that there are new owners? Does anyone have any information about this?

It's No more than $40 I think.
I think Sundays tournament is from 7 to 1. There is no club membership. Anyone can fish it.
I thought I would post a report from Wednesday evening. We fished the tournament from 7-11. 8lbs and change won with big fish being 3 something. We managed to have one keeper that was 2.5lbs. ...
I haven't been there in a few years but never had much luck except up around the locks. I know people that catch some decent fish around there but I think fishing that river is a little different...
I hope the other poster is correct that it's a fad and will pass sooner than later.
Guntersville is miserable on the weekends. We go once a year during the week and leave on Saturday. We used to try and fish a few hours on Saturday morning when we leave but there are so many boats...
I drove out there yesterday evening. Lake up a little and looked pretty muddy. It wasn't as high as I was expecting. Let me know how you do.

It was. Not sure about now.
The navionics for Cumberland is pretty good on the phone app. I am not sure about the lakemaster one.
I think it all depends on what bodies of water you fish. Lakemaster has some nice features but some maps aren't as good. I would look at each website and try to compare which has the most maps of...
Why not just put out one of those floating lights some place and sit and relax for an hour?

Try fishidy. It's free and very good
Anyone know how the boat traffic is on Saturday's lately?
I guess I'm old. The good ole days of limiting out at night in a couple hours are long gone and I don't know if they will ever return. Hard to fish for them now when you know how much fun it used...
You can most definitely see stripers with side imaging. You have to invest the time to understand what exactly you are looking at on the screen. Check the link below, it's a forum just for side...
You would be hard pressed to beat the prices here. I love this store.
Academy - Fishfinders & Navigation
Wish they would do that at wilgreen
Academy - Humminbird 598ci HD SI Fishfinder GPS Combo
Here is where I bought mine. Cheap and awesome customer service.

You need to check out the H20 rods at academy sports.com. They are really nice for the money and there are a lot of reviews about them. I also like the skeet reese cranking rod I have. I like the...

Haven't fished it in a couple months but the grass is the thickest I have ever seen. It's crazy about half way back. You could get out of your boat and walk across it.
I have to agree about cedar creek. People don't seem to have any problem pulling in front of you and cutting you off. I just always say real loud, "look here at this piece of ****, what the ****." ...
You're probably right about the shad. I was just trying to think of things that could be effected by the change in the lake. I really feel like the sudden drop in water is what is making the...
I agree. I think the water has effected everything down the food chain. I am just guessing but maybe the shad haven't reproduced as well in the past. Dropping that much water out of there at once...
I don't get to fish it very often either but I think when they lowered the water it has effected everything. That lake doesn't have a lot of structure and most of what was there is now about out of...
I haven't fished that in years but just a little bit upstream is tates creek. There is usually good fishing at the mouth and up in the creek.
Look at the unit I posted the link for. It is the same size screen with everything the down imaging unit has plus it's SIDE IMAGING for $799.00.
Why don't you check out this side imaging unit. It will do both side and down imaging. I ordered the exact same one from here and love it, just wish I got to use it more. If you have any questions...
I plan on going Easter Sunday! Hopefully most people will be at church!
Seems this is what happens when they try to create a trophy lake and its small! I wish they would put this much effort into some existing lakes to try and improve the fishing. I like cedar creek...
I agree with the previous post. I live south of Lexington and have a hard time finding stuff. The local guys are great when they have what you want. They have walls loaded with plastics but never...
bassboatcentral has a lot of good information and people that are helpful. There is also a yahoo group that is titled the unofficial humminbird side imaging group. They have installation pics of...
I am heading down tomorrow and could really use some help on the live bait fishing. I have only been to dale once. Can you pm me if you have any pointers?
Did you stay out on the main lake areas? I didn't try any shallower areas.
I went this afternoon. Water is pretty dirty and temp was around 51. I had one fish on a deep diving crankbait and that was it.
I got out today to try out my unit and see how my setup worked. It was awesome. Didn't get to fish due to the horrible wind but just looking and side scan was great. Makes you wonder how we ever...
I did some research on other forums and I was told by some humminbird people that the only difference is this years model has HD in the name. Screen resolution is still the same. Also, the new...
I just ordered a 798ci si from academy sports online. I am in the process of installing everything now. The unit was $749.99 with no tax and free shipping. It doesn't say HD like the new ones but...
I second the bass boat saver. Most people don't like to take the time to do it but if you keep a towel in your boat take an extra 10 minutes and wipe it down with bass boat saver after you take out....
I have a johnson 12/24 volt trolling motor that I replaced on a 97 ranger. It is foot controlled and I had the local repair guy in Lexington put a new lower unit on it 2 years ago. Motor runs...
Can you guys throw me some pointers? This lake fishes nothing like it used to and its a real struggle for me to find decent fish. Are people fishing farther from the bank or up in the shallows? I...
