Great info considering the min risk is a thousand bucks. I knew a guy, Mr. USA, who rolled his own cigarettes and so thought it was just fine to have a pack of rolling papers on his dashboard when he tried to roll thru at IF. After all he was legal and all, right? And a citizen of the greatest count...

I watched a very interesting Larry Dalhberg show the other day where he tied his superline to a nylon-coated wire leader. He was twitching a big minnow-shaped rubber bait back to the boat. He said that the elimination of the weight of swivels and snaps made a big difference in his success with that ...

Vito's Flies
After seeing pics of Vito's hand-made flies on another thread I contacted him to make a set for me to give to my father as a X-mas gift. There are 3 flies and when you set them next to each other you'll see, in order, the visible spectrum of colors that can be seen by people. Vito named the flies "T...

Well I went to Bankson today/tonite hoping to boat a fish so I could brag about it in this thread but I totally blanked. What didn't work were suicks, glide baits, various bucktails and cranks. The lake level has dropped enough to drive around the landing loop but the entire ramp is still under water.

Lon, it is very believable, no need for proof. From my limited experience rite now is the best time to target trophey walleye in Bankson (and Cedar and Fish and Gravel). During this time of the year walleye push and hold baitfish up against steep drops. Trolling along those drops with larger deep di...

Ok, truth.... A couple years ago a boated 18 muskies in Bankson, with 3 between 40" and 44", all the rest were mid-30"s. The lake is chock full of walleye that are REALLY hard to pattern. And because there's a decent population of big walleye, it is possible to find roving pods of really big perch. ...

If he doesn't have much experience casting for muskies you might consider loading the reel with heavy mono as opposed to the MUCH more expensive superlines like PowerPro. Recall that the less line on the spool the faster it spins as you cast, and the faster the spin the more prone to backlashes. The...

All of a sudden I can visualize an equation to describe how to change baits on fresh water in an organized manner. Tree diagram would be the initial model. Then identify and measure the variables. Plug the data into a multi-variate linear regression application. The model would suggest which variabl...
