Looks a little like the entry into Blair Lake?
Sorry Mr. Fox, that's not even close.
It would be nice to beat the old record Walt referenced.
There were huge flocks after flocks of geese flying north yesterday. Now there's a sign of spring.
Have a great weekend,
Is it just down the shore from Donner's?
I'll bet you're right Blue, the Cedar Cove A-frames are in the upper-left of the pic below, that's probably the area just to the SE of them.Quote:

Clue, HRG you guessed the spot awhile back...
The ice is turning black and about four feet from shore. It won't be long until it's ice out.
What a spring,
That would make it the entrance to Rat Lake.. Boy must have been at a very low water level when taken.
from post #3 of this thread, back on page 1? You DID mention that you were going to post a pic from there,,,,,,,Quote:

I'm going to be vague with this answer, but is it at least within this circle????

Nice try, but save that spot, because there is one coming of it. Your always ahead of me.
Hint: same shore, but farther east, look for the eagle nest,
Tiny,
I've been watching for a few weeks and have been stumped most of the time.
Either I'm getting oldtimers, or you are getting better at taking "tough-to-guess" pictures.
Jeff
Would that be the shoreline across from HRG circle on big island?
Tiny gave me the hint, it's a little further N/NE from my previous attempt. (maybe)

Both are wrong, try a lot more east of there. I know this shot may not help too much. Somebody should remember this stump where the eagles sit below their nest and feed.
Shoreline across from merckle bridge.
Its about time Gus. Located on the north shore where the river channel comes right up to shore.
Here's one not many have seen.
Hope it doesn't last as long,
Hmm... Is it right next to Bonies Mound, looking toward Grant Creek?
Hmm...Close, but that's not it.
Oh, then it must be that other spot right near there!
Again close, but that's not it. Its so easy, even a blind person could get this one.
Okay, then my next guess is a mile downstream where the channel makes the hard bend from NW to SE- campsite A1 would be on your left and R29 is to your right.
Getting ready for summer today. Just finished a rebuild on my Calcuttas - replaced the anti-reverse bearings and a few miscellaneous spacers and upgraded to carbon fiber drag washers. 15 years of heavy use and they're purring like kittens. The improvement in the drag start-up is incredible! Muskies beware!
All I know is looking at all these pictures of the flowage is making me twitch wanting to get up there so bad, and also realize that after 7 years I have no clue where anything is or what it's called. Either I've been drinking too much while Ski drives me around or the fishing is so good I would only recognize the picture with a fat smallmouth smack dab in the middle. In an effort to test the drinking theory I'm going to go sit in my garage with some cold beer, pull up the forum, and whip out the hot spots map and lakemaster map on my humminbird. Perhaps with a buzz it will all come back and I'll take a shot at one of these....worse case I'll start to learn so when Blue is telling me where to go this spring I won't just be nodding my head to appear that I actually know what he is saying. TFF!!!
I'm still pondering how the blind guy is going to see the pictures - Braille camera?
In prior years, this game didn't have to compete for people's attention with yardwork and actual fishing...
Was up there on Thursday and Friday,cutting fire wood.Looking out on the open water,and thinking this time last year we were driving out there ice fishing.
Because even Blue couldn't get this one we'll have to move on to another. But do remember his last guess, it will come up sooner that you think. There is a map showing the angle of the last shot looking towards Murray's Landing. Camp sites R39 and R40 would be to the right.
Docks, lift and boat are all in. Went out for a boat ride yesterday and the temps were 44 to 46. Big difference from last week's low 50's.
Here are two new ones,
Well, I guess I shouldn't feel too bad about missing that one - that may be the only part of the TFF that I've never been to even once. I used to fish just below Murray's frequently and even took my old boat up the river a couple miles past the landing once, but always cut through on the north side of that island and never followed the channel all the way around. These new ones aren't ringing any bells either.
I'll take a shot at the Middle picture. Its in a bay East of Long Island North of 4th of july slough.
That's not it Connor, but thanks for trying.
Hint: The two new pictures are taken from the same spot, just opposite angles.
33 dazes until opener,
Is it the little bay on the west side of the Turtle just south of Fourmile Creek?
Blue, not sure if this is where you mean. Hopping HRG would have jumped on it, because he did such a good job pointing it out (see reply #49). Gus said it's about the only place where there is still timber still standing.
Have a great day and catch the big one,
Just a wild guess Tiny, Beaver Flats, always floating timber their.
Yes, HRG's circled area was what I was referring to. Haven't been there in ages, but I remembered all the stumps out around the mouth as a unique feature.
Blue, that is what I thought. That's why I put another one out there and George jumped on that one. Good job! Nobody said anything about Gus's hot bait.
Have a good day,
Aw c'mon Tiny, just give me a picture of the dam, or Sandy Point,,,,,,,,,,
I'm working a trade show in Orlando FL this week, so I'm at a disadvantage to the group.
HRG
There are still a few tall ones just south of the narrows downstream from Blair...
It's getting harder and harder finding standing timber on the Flowage.
Tiny,would that be just upstream from Blair?

This was taken on Sunday of opening weekend of deer season.
Cleverly foreshadowed in #67. Interesting that such a big bay rarely gets any fishing interest, but it's not very deep. Still, one would think perhaps the perch and bluegills would be in there, and maybe some largemouth.
