Just about caught my first laker today by hand. Saw him on the Vex, chased the tuber up and down a while so i figured i'd reel up and see if i could get him into view. Closed all the windows in the Otter and looked down the hole only to see about a 13 incher swim into my hole before bumping his on the transducer and bolting outta there. Meanwhile my jig was still about 15 ft. below the ice. Not sure, but I'm guessing i won't see anything like that again. Ended up catchin and releasing one about 15" and just as I was pickin up to go to class, got one a little over 4 lbs. on the tip up. Great way to end the afternoon. Fry him up for supper tonite, nothing better than fresh laker and a couple cold ones. If i die tonite, I die a happy man smile.gif

I feel like i've just been inducted into the hall of fame! I had read that "IBOB #05" on chunky's posts before and wondered what it meant. I think yesterday was the final push needed to officially addict me to lakers. Goin' out this afternoon to get my fix, hopefully the trout gods are feeling generous again!

      Heading up to LV a week from today with the kids. Any advice for us? Staying on the West side but open to traveling if the weather permits.   The way the last few weeks have gone, might stay for good!!!

      Do have Wi-Fi in your house. Your going to need that to work with any of the cameras that send a signal and video to your phone.  Hardwire is the best but battery power workers well for about two months then you have to pull them and recharge them.  It is nice to sit on a beach in Key West and keep an eye on your house when gone! 👌

      Outdoor security cameras

      By Dash 1 · Posted

      With all the craziness in the world I’m looking at getting an outdoor security camera setup for my home. Anyone have ideas on what works well without a huge cost  and easy to do . Or is it better to go with a company to set it up.  We have recently had copper thefts in the area at farmers fields and bin sites and I know it will only gat worse as these things always do. I probably want something that hooks up to my phone as well and wondering if there is a good one with either battery life or if wired is better. Any thoughts are welcome.

      Aren't they the ones that ran into problems about illegal bait? Anyone know how that turned out?

      You launch on Moose Lake to get to the motorized portage. It's called Prairie portage. To get to the portage you put in at Moose Lake. From Moose you go into Newfound Lake. From Newfound you go into Sucker Lake. On Sucker is where Prairie portage is. There is a dock on the American side and on the Canadian side there is big sign welcoming you to Canada. Latourell's Resort runs the portage and the cost for the portage is $40 for a round trip.

      Will that blond haired kid have that cool little orange boat in the show this weekend? Saw him driving around by Muskego Point a few times this summer.

      Nope, there are parts of Basswood that allow motors.   Entry is from Fall Lake, and there is (I think) a motorized portage.   It is really popular in the spring...
