I'm headed for LOTW and will take a fly-in to Lake Kishnetinka(probably spelled wrong)<BR>Any one ever been there, they tell me it's nice. All muskies and Lake trout. I sort of got muskie figured out. Cast 1000 time and get a follow. But it's the lake trout that got me stimed. I know there deep, but what baits would you use to tight line down 40 or 50 feet. I can't carry live minnows in my pockets that's where the TP goes. Need help!!Thanks StM<P>------------------<BR>Need trout or pike flies!<BR>[email protected]<BR>And good luck out there!

I've had good success using airplane jigs for lake trout if their deep. If fairly shallow, casting raps and divers can get'em good. A trick we use on our minnows. Buy some minnows(shinners) in a plastic bag, dump the water out, take about 1-2 cups of pickling salt and pour on the minnows. Shake around so they all get covered. The salt will pull moisture from minnow, so may have to pour any water out after a few hours/days. Don't have to keep'em cool or anything. When put on your jig and back in water, they look, feel like a good minnow. Works great, try it. Tazimna

      There’s critters out and about.  Get yourself some cellular trail cams and you’ll see.

      One more day….. but I’m thinkin’ my guess was a little early…. For this year.

      It wouldn't be the first time I've heard the USS Skunked Again breaking ice! I left this morning, the rain really did a number to the ice. I'll bet the Partridge River will be open by the weekend.

      My yard is pretty open, but narrow. I think I'll be fine with reception in the areas I'm thinking. I try to keep the hill somewhat natural, but my wife wants to see the lake better. The video's I've watched, they have topped the trees and mounted the dish. I would this the swaying would affect the signal. Does Starlink help you with using WiFi for calling? My T-Mobile service sux at the cabin. Did you bury your cable?

      I'm on the wide part of the channel going in to Black Bay. We won't see Paul B. For years.

      Welcome back. Wow it's been since 2018 it looks like. Did you ever "I'm tightening up my footprint and want to build on my Bozeman lot on the Gallatin"?  😏

      You're probably right. This isn't official since I've already lost, but I'll make my supplemental guess for May 6th since it's still open. 😄   As long as I can snake my way along the shore and/or plow through some dark ice on the 8th, I'll be happy. I love aluminum boats!

      For all of my "problems" with getting a clear signal it's worth it. I can spend more time at the lake because I can work during the day and play or get things done at night. Toss in that I can record and watch a football/hockey/basketball game when I'm done at the end of the day....priceless.   Like your place, our property is more natural and I was worried about having to cut down a bunch of trees. I like that people have to get up close to see our place from the lake through the trees. Luckily I didn't have to do much to get enough a signal that works for me. If I needed to be on video calls, I probably would run the dish down to the shore to get a better view of the sky.   BTW - the main problem with mounting the dish on a tree is that the tree still has a canopy that will block the signal. The best option would be to top a tree and then mount it on the clear-cut top.
