Default yep

They were pulling spinnerbaits. Not as hot of a bite as expected. I heard the winner weighed a little over 30.

Those Lemoyne fish just got pounded and pounded and pounded and pounded. Aren't there any other trees in the lake.

It was good to see so many sticking to the trolling game.

I think Castle is on the north shore, between Lemoyne and Sand point. The big house on the hill with the row of skylights and the radar thing spinning on the east side of the house roof. It's a clean spot you can drag bait without getting snagged so much.

That one isn't a Big Eye, but Van's doesn't haven't any big john spinnerbaits left hardly since I'm on my way to Oahe in a couple weeks. LOL!!!

That one in the pic is in a tree down by the golf course now.

Nope. Running them behind leadcore. Finding that 1 oz spinner bait at 2 mph with 3 - 3.5 colors out was dragging in 20 feet.

Look for this stuff (see below) and then prepare to lose $5 every 200 yards. LOL

Default john boy spinnerbaits

If youre planning on using john boy spinnerbaits I would take the time and spend the money and replace the barrel swivel with a ball bearing swivel... he hasn't quite got it figured out yet. Or just spend your money on the good ones BIG EYE, or the OTTP baits pretty much the same bait big eye has some better color choices. Good luck theres definateley a learning curve in trollin those big baits.
