Fantasy Help


BIG ISLAND DUDE

Recommended Posts

As a back up to dante culpepper should I take Joey Harrington or John Kitna?? I keep hearing that carson palmer will start instead of J Kitna but his numbers were so good last year, that do you guys think that he will find his way back in fairly early. I know that Joey has a couple of solid WR$. If any one has any info on J kitna... Help please.

I would go with Joey Harrington. He is the Lions starter and if he does well will remain the starter and has 2 very good receivers to help him out. Carson Palmer would have to fall flat on his face to be replaced by Kitna. This might happen but if Palmer puts up average numbers then he will remain the starter and you won't get anything for drafting Kitna.

Big Island Dude, Don't forget! The lions have the same Bye week as the Vikes in Week 4 I believe. Therefore I wouldn't get Harrington as he isn't going to be playing when you need him.

Yes, definitely manage your bye weeks. Other QBs that might be on the wauver that would be an ok backup are Mark Brunell, Delholmme, Plummer, Garcia, Leftwich, Boller...

Im thinkin Bledsoe. Hes still available.
I still think that it is a shame That kitna will have to sit after having such a good showing last here. I hope carson falls flat on his face. I guess money talks and bulls walk.

You heard it hear first:
Carson Palmer will be everything Kitna was and more!!! By the end of the year, the Bengals will be a team that nobody wants to play.

Check your opponent on the bye week. I rolled the dice and didn't start a QB on a bye week last year and won.

Yeah...check the schedule on the Vikes' bye week. You could take Byron Leftwich (they play the Colts that week), or you could try David Carr (they play the Raiders that week). Those guys could put up decent numbers that week.

I wouldn't not start a player that week instead I'd do something I usually do with Kickers and Defense. Look at the matchup that week and pickup someone just for that week based on the matchup. I like David Carr, just as the previous post suggests. If he's there he'd be good insurance throughout the season.

I agree with Piker. You can also pick up Kitna later if he starts playing. If you can't that means you're not real low on the waiver wire & probably don't really need him that bad.

      I'm not there, so I can't tell exactly what's going on but it looks like a large area of open water developed in the last day with all of the heavy snow on the east side of wake em up Narrows. These two photos are from my Ring Camera facing north towards Niles Point.  You can see what happened with all of snow that fell in the last three days, though the open water could have been wind driven. Hard to say. .

      Black Bay had great ice before but a few spots near rockpiles where there were spots of open water. It looks like the weight of the snow has created a little lake in the middle of the bay.

      On the south end...   Thanks to some cold spring weather, ice fishing continues strong for those still ice fishing.  The bite remains very good.  Most resorts have pulled their fish houses off for the year, however, some still have fish houses out and others are allowing ATV and side by sides.  Check social media or call ahead to your favorite resort for specifics. Reports this week for walleyes and saugers remain excellent.   A nice mix of jumbo perch, pike, eelpout, and an occasional crappie, tullibee or sturgeon being reported by anglers. Jigging one line and using a live minnow on the second line is the way to go.  Green, glow red, pink and gold were good colors this week.     Monster pike are on a tear!  Good number of pike, some reaching over 45 inches long, being caught using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring in 8 - 14' of water.   As always, work through a resort or outfitter for ice road conditions.  Safety first always. Fish houses are allowed on the ice through March 31st, the walleye / sauger season goes through April 14th and the pike season never ends. On the Rainy River...  The river is opened up along the Nelson Park boat ramp in Birchdale, the Frontier boat ramp and Vidas boat ramp.  This past week, much of the open water skimmed over with the single digit overnight temps.   Areas of the river have popped open again and with temps getting warmer, things are shaping up for the last stretch through the rest of the spring season, which continues through April 14th.   Very good numbers of walleyes are in the river.  Reports this week, even with fewer anglers, have been good.  When temps warm up and the sun shines, things will fire up again.   Jigs with brightly colored plastics or jigs with a frozen emerald shiner have been the desired bait on the river.  Don't overlook slow trolling crankbaits upstream as well.   Good reports of sturgeon being caught on the river as well.  Sturgeon put the feed bag on in the spring.  The bite has been very good.  Most are using a sturgeon rig with a circle hook loaded with crawlers or crawlers / frozen emerald shiners. Up at the NW Angle...  Ice fishing is winding down up at the Angle.  Walleyes, saugers, and a number of various species in the mix again this week.  The bite is still very good with good numbers of fish.  The one two punch of jigging one line and deadsticking the second line is working well.   Check with Angle resorts on transport options from Young's Bay.  Call ahead for ice road guidelines.

      With the drifting, kind of hard to tell for sure, but I'm guessing about a foot and still lightly snowing. Cook end!

      How much snow did you get on Vermilion? 
    • Mike89
      lake here refroze too...  started opening again yesterday with the wet snow and wind...  very little ice left today...
    • Hookmaster
      A friend who has a cabin between Alex and Fergus said the lake he's on refroze. He texted me a pic from March 12th when it was open and one from 23rd when it wasn't. 🤯
    • SkunkedAgain
      I don't think that there has been any ice melt in the past few weeks on Vermilion. Things looked like a record and then Mother Nature swept in again.   I'll give my revised guess of April 21st
