Hi all. I simply cannot wait to get out this spring. So many if you all are pros and/or have tons of experience so I have to ask. I only come in to fish a few times per year, maybe 3-5 trips. I usually do May through July with pretty fair luck on great eater fish. Wondered how early you have luck on the big fish in April trolling stickbaits?
I have been once towards the end of April and caught a couple big ones but they were already spawned out in 45 degree water. I read they start around 40 degrees? I’d like to try earlier even if I release them pre-spawn. I also assume they are generally shallower then and over humps vs. out in the flats? I know the jig fisherman don’t like the trolling pressure so I would stay away and be respectful of that. I primarily fish out of Catawba.

Thanks very much to you all as I have really learned a lot from this site. I don’t want to steal spots or fish in the pack but the general speeds and colors sure are helpful 🙂
Cheers to a safe and fun 2023!

Well I just got the App and I hope it helps me while out on the lake. I think the more info I have the better it is. At the very least I will know how deep the lures are running and will be able to get them down to the fish. My next investment will be to spend a day with Juls to tie it all together.

What’s everybody use for line counter reels??
Looking to upgrade, main problem with cheaper ones I use is counter sticking and button getting stuck, very hard with gloves/cold hands in cold weather

Just curious if anyone has any fishing reports. I drove through Mazurik Launch today and there were a bunch of boats out. Any reports?
thanks in advance.

Replacing line on my line counters. Need advice. We fish off shore boards with bandits and spoons. Should I go braid or mono?

Im thinking about going out of huron tomorrow. Just wondering if the ice is gone. The huron river web cam shows it is clear but not sure how far up river it melted
Thanks for your help.
