Fish of a lifetime....yep, 2 years ago, my buddy was fishing and the only flag he had, had a massive pike on it and he couldn't get it up the hole. He had his hand on it trying to squeeze it thru and the pike pulled and thrashed it's head and broke the line. If he was able to get it out the hole and up on the ice it would have been on the wall cause it was the biggest pike he has ever caught open or hard water.
what size hole? sounds like he should have been using the 10" hole that everyone on this site loves so much.
Never said that I was "GOD". Just stating the obvious way I see things every time I fish the lake, sounds like I must have struck a nerve with you tho...Maybe you fall into "that guy" persona i described and took offense? Anyway... I'll be bidding this thread farewell after this post since its seems as though no one that fishes the sac can get along with eachother or accept any form of advice or constructive criticism.And don't you worry about me I will continue to "look a few steps in front of me" that's where my hole will be with fish coming out of itGood luck with the rest of your season
i like your attitude SS.i think we had a few words last year lol.you definately pull no punches and tell it how it is.i love the sarcasm too!you are the type of guy that is best to agree with . hope to see ya out there around scout this year ill be looking for that shanty cant miss that thing its sweet.i have been on the sac just a couple times and saw no flags.usually there is at least a one in our group over the years.course i dont fish it all the time either.sounds like you live right up that way and spend a heck of aot more time there than me which would mean you have had better and worse days.
Anyway... I'll be bidding this thread farewell after this post since its seems as though no one that fishes the sac can get along with eachother
dontcha think 8 inch holes are plenty?i used to fish with a 10 it was nice for sure but i think an 8 plenty.
were movin the shanty today getting out into the main body of water hope our luck changes
hoogie,You can only be close to one location or the other. It's a ride to get from where you are putting in to Lanzi's on a wheeler, doable but you can't be close to both locations. From where you are putting on you need to get out of that bay, there isn't a ton of water in that area this time of year. I would suggest getting out north of Scout island toward the main body of the lake and start someplace out there. I haven't had much luck this year so I can't give you more insight.Your best bet though would be to find SSminnow's shanty and set up within 50' of him, heck he will probably let you use some of his 10" holes! I prefer the 8" holes, a little tighter to get through!Almost forgot, be carefull out there on the wheelers and sleds, there are some bad pressure ridges out there that have already swallowed up at least one sled this year into 23' of water.
hope you have a sled, the wheeler was not moving all to great out there today with the snow drifts. good luck.
Just a suggestion for all of you ATVer's:Ditch the wheels. Replace them with tracks (Mattracks). A little pricey, but well worth the cost. They go EVERYWHERE except straight up and can stay on all year 'round. Deals can be found on e-bay, or you can buy new. I found mine used, in excellent condition from the company. They don't deal in used tracks, but they turned me on to their customer that had a used set for sale. THEY ARE GREAT (both the tracks and the company). Ask for Travis. He is the fellow that helped me save thousands (literally!).
for the price of the tracks i could have another wheeler or sled. way to pricey for me. i can only remember one time where i couldn't get the wheeler out on the ice, but, by the end of the day the sleds had it packed down for me. i think the tracks are awesome, but i could think of a million things i would spend my $$ on before them.
Sure. But for an old F@rt like me, bad back, bad knees, my days of walking are over, as well as my days pushing out stuck ATV's. Besides, My deal for tracks was well worth. You could only buy a piece of junk ATV for what my tracks cost, in great condition. I lucked out. I had to go to Creole, La., near Galveston, Tx. to get them, but they were well worth the rp. We also went to a couple of Bass Pro
anyone fishing in the contest next weekend the glsff one the two day event if so let me know i will be out there in the portable shanty all weekend so send me a pm
let me know dont where we are setting up either
