Thanks again Weedlinerunner. Anxious to get on the lake and see what we can find. Sounds like walleye sizes might have been a bit smaller for you than last year? I still want to catch a 10 pounder (30 inches??) so I can have a replica made for the wall - know of any good places for replicas? Maybe if I think positive it will bring good luck! By the way, any rocks that are usually down far enough that we should look out for and steer clear of? Usually it is too early for anyone to have marked the rocks that might threaten the lower unit. Also if you have any suggestions on how to best use the fishfinders on the North Shore boats to locate prime spots and/or fish that would be appreciated. Can you see deep weed growth on the finders or mostly bottom depth and fish echos? Do you always go the first week - and have you ever fished Eagle during mid-summer? Thanks.!!
