[#0000ff]We will be watching on the lake cam. Wash your face, comb your hair and . Oh yeah, don't do anything you wouldn't want anybody else to see you doing.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Suggestion...start by fishing the deep channel going out of the marina. Then, angle to the NW and then back north, fishing the gravel bars and humps. That's where I lost a nice walleye last week. We got most of our hits on bait in 5-7 feet of water. We saw schools of fish (crappies???) in deeper water but could not coax them to hit. [/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]There were some small shad cruising about mid depth in 8-10 feet of water. You might try fishing under them with an appropriate offering. I don't know what that would be since I didn't find one that worked. As the water warms a bit, things could change quickly...for the better.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Be sure to post a report on what you find. I will be back up there both Monday and Tuesday...smiling for "candid camera".[/#0000ff]

I fished North, South, west, and all around the mouth of the North Marina. Deepest water I found was 10 foot. Marked very little on the sonar as well. No way was I going to row to the west side or further South.
Nothing to report from me "as usual" but I did enjoy taking the toon out and seeing how she works and all.

[cool][#0000ff]Okay, now that you have the maiden voyage out of the way, you can focus on fishing. Right?[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Thanks for the non-report. (no fishies)[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]I'll go back up and try to put a hook in a few during the next couple of days...if they have stopped laughing by then.[/#0000ff]
