Curious if anyone would be interested in some fishing today. I have my mind set on a couple lakes I'd like to try or stick with the one I've had my best luck on. I live in zimmerman and could meet anyone around the area. It would be nice to meet some of the people from the forum here.

I am going to give the library until noon for my group member to show up and then I am out of here and will be fishing. I will keep you all posted and where I am thinking of going. I might not notice you under the Riverrat, but the old guys on blue lake would see you. That way you can deal with them

Ok I am not taking my house because it is not to bad out. I think that is where RiverRat is going too. I will go there as well. I will be pulling a black sled with my stuff in it and wearing a camo coat it is a duck camo pattern. See you on the lake.

It does. Good sized crappies and sunfish. If your lucky a nice walleye will show up. I caught a 22 incher out here last year and put it back into the lake.

they both have relatively the same size crappies and personally I find bigger sunnies in green but blue does have some decent sunnies in it. You have a better chance at a walleye in Green but there are some in Blue. Northerns I would go to Green. Both lakes get pounded in the winter but green has more area to spread and fish and be successful where blue has a few areas but usually get so packed it effects the bite...green gets this way but you can move and find active fish in secluded areas.

What do you think I have been doing Eyeguy? I have been busting my butt try get it done. These group projects have been killing me. I hate group work. Next week is the last week of classes then finals week follows. Then I the quest will be in full swing. Eyeguy you finding some places for me? I have some locations, but I have not put in a full day of bouncing around looking for the MONSTER GILLS. I did get out for little bit yesterday. I met up with river rat and we found a few gills but nothing big enough for me. They were all smaller than my hand.

Good Luck to those who get out today. I wish I could go to meet you on the ice.

Sorry I missed both you and river rat that day.. I was sitting out off the point to the right of the steep access in about 25 FOW. Hopped around trying some holes I punched and managed to catch 3 crappies sitting in my house. No size to them. I went to Green last night and managed my limit of 10.5+ inch crappies. Fun while it lasted. The Bite was very fast action. That storm front had to do something with ut

Green has always been my hot spot. The crappies can be caught anywhere on that lake. Everyone sits on the point by both accesses, but I've had great luck throughout the entire lake.

      In those years Polaris was known to put buna tipped needles in there sleds. They get a ring around the seat and don't seal shut. But if that would be the case your problem would be with the motor shut off and filling the crankcase with gas. If your plugs are brown that is were they should be. I wouldn't drop that needle down to the last grove. I would replace them before I did that. I have never had a carb with that setting. Have you looked at your clutches? They could be dirty or have a bad roller.  Does it bog as it's accelerating or when you hit the throttle?

      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.

      By JerkinLips · Posted

      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!  🥳
