Hi, if your still interested in selling that FL8 - i know someone that's interested (my son) --- how old?, does it work? and how much? --- you may reply to my e-mail address if you like -- [email protected]<BR>thanks

Yeah, my fingers haven't thawed out enough to even type. -33 on sat morning!! Was your bed warm? Did pretty well sat. with around 25 and sun with 3 hrs. of jiggin 17. Found some bigger fish east side of gull, 5-6 over 19. Glow white was the answer on the deadstick and the perch bucky on the jig. We were in 30' and it was a bear gettin there. It's getting really tough to move around with the white stuff. Good thing they didn't get what we did the other day, or you might have to purchase new tires instead of the 18!! No, I don't know of anyone who needs yours' but you missed the deal of the century on fri nite. Alls I'll say is the guy wanted 325 for his 1 year old propack dual trans. 18!!! I don't think I'm going this weekend, but alot can change in a few days, right..

Well it sounded like you found some meat anyways! Who had the 18 for sale? Mine is 3yrs old and works like a charm! There is only one problem, I cant sell it until I get my 18!! $275 I've used it maybe 20 times and caught my limit each time!! Honestly it works great.<P>Reef, I just got back from Firestone! 2 brand new tires on the back! Nothing is stopping me now!

Hey old man reefer,<BR>I didnt see any reports from last weekend? Did you make it back? I would imagine it was cold as hell but just wanted to hear it from ya! Do you know anyone that is looking for a vex? Does your brother/my cousin have one yet? You know the FL-8 I have with the bag and stuff, i think its called a sportspack. Anywho, the wife is going to let me upgrade so to speak to a Fl-18 for my B-day. But let me know if you know anyone interested....oh by the way, my birthday is this saturday if you wanna buy me a couple buckshots!? YOu heading up this weekend?

I dont know..whats it worth?

I'll give you 150 for it.

Posted

I would think you could get 225 at least for it. We sold a guy's from work for that on buy and sell for that and it went quick. His was a couple years old also. It seems to be a little chilly out, eh!!

Posted

It's hard to believe what used vexilars go for. They sell for 279 new.

Posted

I know I spent a little over $300 for it with the sport pack but then again I know its not gold!! I dont know if an 18 would be worth the extra cash or not! Whatcha guys/gals think...is it worth it or not?<P>Yes reeefer its a little nipply out there this morning! As I was pushing snow this morning at 6:30 the sign at the college read -31 BUT after that it started warming up!!! (first day for the long johns) Us groundskeepers are tough!!

Posted

Sorry guys...its sold. I sold it for $130 cash in hand. No, actually I got $245. Thanks for all the offers though.

Posted

Fox,<BR>You are a fox! You have to realize Curty is loaded with money and probably could have just gave you the vex if he really wanted to. Curty, I could use a tank if you have any left..hehe

Posted

Hey boener,<BR> Curty's used stuff is all mine!! Just remember that if you want us to put you on BIG fish again on next summer's fishin' trip!!

Posted

I gotta start checking what something is<BR>worth before I sell it.<P>Glad you can retire off what you got for<BR>your FL-8 Boener.<P>You will love your FL-18. At first I thought<BR>that Zoom mode was mostly [PoorWordUsage] but it is very<BR>worth the extra dollars. You will soon <BR>wonder how you got along without it.<P><P>------------------<BR>Curt Quesnell<BR>NorthCountry Outdoors Radio

Yeah Curt I just got done filling out all the paperwork for retirement! I did throw in a mr. heater with it though. Oh yeah, I also gave the guy an all inclusive trip to the st.hilare lick!! wink.gif<BR>Fox, I'm expecting big things out of you again this next summer!! smile.gif Take care and stay warm!!

      I hope to be fishing….  It’s so rare that I get to go, I hate passing up the opportunity. 😉

      Since the Vikings are never in it. We use it for an excuse to make some fun stuff!  Last year was a bit light. Hot cheese bean dip, hot wings and pepperoni cheese bread! 😋

      That snow and the 15-25 mph winds on Thursday with higher gusts will be nasty drifting. I didn't go to LOW (can I say that in the this thread?🤫) this week because of it.

      On the South Shore...  Ice fishing is strong across the south shore of Lake of the Woods out on Big Traverse Bay.  Most anglers are targeting deep mud with others fishing structure if available where they are going out of.  There are fish in both areas.     Some ice roads are now extending more than 16 miles out, with over two feet of ice reported in most areas. Resorts and outfitters continue increasing weight limits. As a rule, fishing continues to be very good with consistent action for anglers.  Most fishing activity is taking place in 26-32 feet of water.  Anglers are finding a healthy mix of walleyes and saugers, with plenty of opportunities to enjoy fresh fish frys and bring fish home.   On the jigging line, jigging spoons with rattles tipped with a minnow head have been consistent.  Lipless crankbaits and jigging rap style lures also doing well.   On the deadstick, a plain hook or a small jig with a live minnow 6 inches to a foot off of the bottom.    You never know when the fish will move through.  Anglers fishing the entire day normally have success.  Electronics are a big help as well. On the Rainy River...  The morning and evening hours are the best for fishing walleyes. A jig and minnow combination has been a good presentation.  A jigging spoon tipped with a minnow head is also producing some fish. Catch-and-release sturgeon fishing is still producing some big fish through the ice.  There are two sturgeon seasons on Lake of the Woods and the Rainy River, a catch and release season and a harvest season in which you can keep one fish per calendar year.    The harvest season runs from April 24th – May 7th and July 1 – Sept. 30. The catch and release season runs May 8th – May 15th and Oct. 1 – April 23rd.    Although ice conditions on the river are good, they can vary significantly due to the current, so anglers should always consult local resorts or outfitters for the most up-to-date safety information and fishing advice. Up at the NW Angle...  Ice fishing remains good at the Northwest Angle.  Resorts continue to move their fish houses staying on fish.  Some fish houses are set up on structure while others are targeting deeper mud flats.    Anglers are catching a nice mix of walleyes, saugers, jumbo perch, pike, and tullibees.  Good numbers of big crappies are still being caught in select areas and hard sided fish houses are available to target them.  Check with a NW Angle resort for info.   Jigging one line, deadsticking the second is effective.  Some days the jigging line is hot, other days the deadstick.  Some good colors have been gold, glow red, glow white, wonder bread, pink, chartreuse and orange. Lake of the Woods enjoys an extended ice fishing season with fish houses on the ice through March 31st and walleye and sauger seasons open through April 14th. Perch, crappie, and pike seasons remain open year-round.

      Same story, different day (Monday).  Caught several small walleyes (biggest were 14 and 15 inches) with the best bite from 2-5pm.  Caught my record walleye this winter at 6½ (inches, not pounds).  Was wondering why the bobber kept going down a couple inches for several minutes until I finally reeled it up.  Fortunately it was just hooked in the lips.  Having a lively minnow definitely improved the action.  I put down a pike sucker for the first time this winter and got an immediate hard bite.  When I went to set the hook, the line broke just above the hook.  Don't know if it was a northern bite-off or just weak line by the hook.  May try some pike suckers next trip.   Ice conditions were very good except for heavy drifting (even with very little fresh snow).  Didn't see any vehicles traveling off road except for snowmobiles and a tracked SxS, although there weren't many people out on the lake.  Water came up around my house about 1½ inches but froze very quickly with the cold weather and no snow on top.  Will probably have to block it up again next time up.   Good luck fishing and be careful of severe drifting of snow, especially with the 3-5 inches they are predicting for Wednesday night.
