Any suggestions on a source for a trailer axle...probably an unusual size since the boat is small and old. Axle size is 55 1/2 by 1 inch with a 40 1/2 inch hole-to-hole length between the leaf springs.
Or, suggestions about how to improvise would be welcomed.
Rivergroup, Are you on the east or west side of the lake. When you say before 7am what time you going out? 5am? How deep of water? Just looking for starting point for this coming weekend. Thanks!
As I understand the challenge, there are regulations regarding water pumping and circulation from the lake into holding tanks for minnows. It makes keeping minnows alive and healthy, as a sustainable business, very difficult for lakeshore businesses.
We ran out of minnows and couldn't find any at the bait shops. So we fished with leeches last night and had great success. Just about all of them we caught were 14 - 17 inches. Shallower bays have warmed up and they are in their feeding at dusk.
