  1. Had a free weekend coming up and thought I would fish Banks lake, being i have yet to give her a try. I know the lake level is dropping so fishing should be a bit easier. I have heard it is a dropshot/finesse lake for smallies but would also like to stick a lmb. Any suggestions for areas to focus or techniques in August, without giving away your secrets? Thanks in advance
  2. I witnessed this on a lake in Idaho during a tournament. Guy in a boat 20-30 yds away lost a toad on a Senko, broke off. After he was finished with his monkey dance on the bow of his boat he re-tied and the very next cast he landed a 8+ LMB and yes it had the previous Senko still hooked in the corner of its mouth!!!
  3. They must hook the fish for you??
  4. The wind drift is the most important question between these two boats....If you plan on bass fishing....
  5. a little "ODD" Glen? I looked like a cat with a ball of yarn, first time i put cover on my Ranger....lol
  6. When all else "fails" I get out my Coors Light- Blue Mnts (Ice cold) , all gets better after that
  7. Very cloudy skies or muddy water. Never ever on clear water
  8. "right now i have the berkely 50 lb. digital and it is very inconsistent". This was also my previous scale. I found (unfortunately) at my last tourney it is very inconsistent. I was off 12 oz. for total bag. Makes one wonder how well he is culling, glad I use the beams for culling. My apologies for not clarifying scale options. This is a scale you would have in your boat to use as part of your culling system.
  9. It is time for a new digital scale. These have always been like purchasing grab bag, never know if they are accurate. So, i thought I would put up a pole to help my purchase. I can add to the list just let me know.
  10. I do glue my trailer with Krazy-glue (actually use loctite), but only when I am skipping and want a slow fall. Instead of threading the plastic on, i single hook it. If anyone has found a better way, utilizing this technique, to hold the bait, please post.....
  11. You may save a few bucks by keeping all the torn plastics (worms/tube/critters) you will go through and use those for your jig trailers vs. buying specific trailers.
  12. After learning this lake for the last three years, the only honey holes, this time of year, are the stumps/logs/pilings in the lake, but it takes one cast out of 50 or more casts (at each location) for that one toad and only the lake veterans know these locations. Some of these are becoming visible with the lake level dropping, so keep your eye out. If you see any boats fishing off shore take notice. On the west side of Waldon island are some bouy markers. These markers are identifying a rock pile, might be worth stopping and plunkin' at. Watch your PROP!!!! For avg size hit the brush - bring your flippin pole and "leave the rest at home" in my opinion. There is a good morning bite currently in the wee hours of daylight or late dusk. Lots of traffic on the lake also keeping the shallow bottom stirred up so the water clarity, well there is none (maybe 6"). Always a chance of catching that TOAD with every cast on this lake. Be ready, they typically hit your bait on first fall to the bottom. Good luck!! Now, how is the bite at Lake Washington???
  13. I have heard that mixing a solution of vinegar and water, then spray areas you want to deter the cats. BB gun is positive results but if you don't want harm the animal, if it enters your property blast it with a water hose!
  14. Have you looked at the Canopy (tarp) style carports? They range from 350-600 for your dimensions. Do a internet search. Some people in this area (NW) use them, just make sure it is properly anchored. You can find these with just three sides, to save some bucks if it is against the house. Also for the price, i agree you can build you own custom carport for less money.
