How has the bite been up by oak?

Posted

Not this weekend, but last caught 30 sauger, 10 eyes, 5 perch off Sportsmans reef. Most ran pretty small. Action consisent throuhout the day.

Thanks LM. Did you go through Sportsmans Beaudette? If so how long does the bomber ride across the pond take?

Posted

We snowmobiled to from Sportsmans Lodge to Sportsmans Oak Island. It's about 38 miles from Wheelers Point to Oak Island, so a bomber ride would have to be around 1 1/2 hours I would think. Much more comfortable on the sled if you ask me, but probably still worth it by bomber. Once you get to Oak Island it is a very short bomber ride daily to their fishing spot.

Thanks again LM. Sounds like I better keep some refreshments close by for that ride. Any tips you're willing to divulge?

I'm heading up tomorrow for a week.... Fishing up that way has been nothing more the fantastic! I'm staying on Oak Island, but taking off from Baudette by sled and fish my way up to oak. I have a dozen spots or so before I get to Oak...good luck to you guys.

What is the mileage from Springsteel to Oak? What about from Rocky Point to oak? I have res. there mid march. Will be pulling portables. Thanks

there isn't much difference in mileage between the two. It will take you about an hour averagin 50 mph (legal speed limit on snowmobile trail). 40-50 miles maybe?

      As soon as I started reading mind went to needles and seats.  You might want to try just replacing those first?  I’ve only done that once before in my life but it made the difference.  A carb refresh in 8,000 miles seems reasonable.

      Good luck smurfy!  On getting drawn, I mean!   If it comes down to it, I know a guy that might be interested in a nice hide.

      My 30 year-old Indy 500 (over 8,000 miles) has been having a mid-range bog for many years now.  It is worse on warm days and when the engine is warmer.  The sled runs fine up to about 1/4 throttle, then runs extremely rich up to 3/4 throttle.  The spark plugs are dark brown (better brown than down?) but not saturated.  8 years ago I moved the clips on the jet needles from the 3rd to the 2nd groove to lean the mixture and it helped for a while.   Should I move the clips to the top groove (temporary solution)? Could the jet needles, needle jets, and/or the main jets be warn and need replacement?   Don't think I will have time to tear the carbs apart this season for a rebuild so I may just band-aid the problem.

      I think that Mike89 picked April 26 two hours before you, jparrucci.  Is that correct Mike89?

      My last hide I gave to my Taxidermist friend to make what ever he liked out of it.   I've got a few fun Bear hunt stories to be told.  All 3 of us our first year stupidly tracking a blood trail in the dark together and getting lost, luckily smelled the bait making circles and got out. 🫣 Flash lights dying, deep in a swamp following a blood trail in the dark, the one who stayed at the bait called us back in!  We learned our second bear! Lol. 😞  Downing a wounded charging bear with the last bullet when tracking, no lie! 😬    Have had my fun!  🥳

      I remember that kegel… stuff….!   just finished my post work latte as a matter of fact!  Only the second case of those I’ve ever bought.     I’d get Mike something better.

      application has been submitted. 👍   Leech......i've shot my share of bear......it be nice to get another but not the end of the world if i dont. i get to spend time with my son...its just another way to get into the woods. i've been at it since about 1976......that rush when you walk up to the bait and see the logs scattered all over and bait gone just doesnt get old for me.   i had to get rid of 1 rug because of bad tanning. i have another rug, shoulder mount and made 3 pillows from 2 different bear hides. my biggest issue has become what to do with the hide....that seems more of a trophy then the meat. i inquired 1 year at the Alex decoy show when there were a couple hide guys there and they didnt seem to interested. 🙄 i have no other ideas for the hide.......approval from the wife is not even negotiable!!!!!
