I was reading the last (really long) post and GullGuide mentioned cabbage beds on Green.

I've spent time in the boat on various lakes in MN casting for muskies with a freind who really has 'the fever' and he always talkes about 'cabbage'.

Can someone fill me on in what a cabbage bed looks like and how to locate it and how to tell it apart from other weeds? I'm not the greatest fisherman but I have spent a fair amount of time on the water. Can someone please either post a picture or give me some more in depth insight on what this cabbage really is? Sorry to sound to stupid but everyone seems to talk about this like it's so obvious and yet I'm just nver too sure.

Thanks!

The tell-tail sign, from about June through summer unless they get snipped off, is the seed head or tassel that will stick out of the water 1/4 to 1" up. Later in the season the leaves will turn yellowish and they will be easy to spot when you are close to them.

Good luck.

      Did you have any luck?     I got a bird but didn’t really do much for pics worth showing.

      It depends on a lot of factors, I suppose.   I hung on to my last gas auger for a few years after getting into electric but I never used it so I finally sold it.  Haven’t missed it one bit.  You bet it was reliable though.  Still started on the second pull for the new owner.   After trying several options in the electric world, I’m currently settled on a Strikemaster 40V with Liteflight bits.  With 2 fully charged batteries, I fish all day in Canada, cutting 10 inch holes.     What I’ll agree with is, if you search by drilling and flasher sonar, you will probably be more comfortable with the run time of a gas auger.  When you start incorporating GPS mapping, forward facing sonar, and saved waypoints, you don’t need to Swiss cheese every spot you fish.  I can still run through both batteries when the fishing isn’t great but I never feel like I have to count my holes.  It’s more like: Did I need the second battery before the middle part of our fishing hours?  If I still can’t catch fish after running out 2 batteries, it doesn’t matter cuz the fish just ain’t biting.   That’s fishing on the dark side! 😉

      Yep, that's where I was🤪. Best fish were way up in the shallow boulders...   And.....if the 3 or 4 people that read this want to fish it.... go right ahead😁😏  My bass spots are no secret....trophy panfish spots, that's another story🤪
