Big Lake Tomorrow

[speck-addict]

Heading to Big Lake tomorrow (2-18-14) afternoon any reports? trying to find some reds possible specks...will post report tomorrow. Thanks for any help.

If you looking for reds fish the pipe gates behind the weirs fish outgoing tide they are thick rite now had 3 man limit yesterday in about 15 minutes

Behind weirs is best bet. Afternoon will be very windy. Only trout bite is in early AM when wind is slack. I'll be wading tomorrow AM

Thank you, so theres no real trout bite in afternoon...damn. But i will try out side the weirs i don't want to go back there in a fiberglass boat, not that brave! LOL.
Good Luck in the AM Brandon

How big is your boat? I've seen haynies back there .
I've personally fit a 2110 nautic back there no prob.

22.5 Epic Center Console... I put my old boat (18 Ft ranger Bass Boat) back there multiple times last year but new boat and a 100" front beam has me hesitant.

I run a 24' bluewave behind the weirs. No problem getting in and out

It's to risky for me. I attempted to go in when i had my 17ft boat 1 time! I chickened out threw it in reverse lol! The water was rushing inside the weir. Definitely Not going in my new boat.

Ive heard that a few people have busted holes or tore up the side of their fiber glass boat trying to get back there

You couldn't pay me to pass a brand new bay boat through them weirs. A redfish is not that important.

my thoughts exactly... I went through there in my old kenner, but I havent even thought about going through in the triton. 102" beam and 120" opening, no thanks

[speck-addict]

Yes it's very risky not a lot of room to play and I don't want to mess up a brand new boat. Not gonna try. Worse comes to worse tight line the outside of the weirs.

As far as the boat goes, it is by far one of the best all around boats I've fished in. Can handle it's own in rough water and it doesn't get wind blown much. I got a 175 behind it could have gone bigger but I am very satisfied with the way the boat handles. Have no complaints! I strongly recommend the boat to whoever is looking for a bay or outside the pass boat. Very well priced for everything you are getting!

Last 2 trips I have been on the past 2 Sundays I have done very well on trout in the afternoons.

That EPIC boat you have is it Red? I was checking one out Keith and them were working on at Superior the other day. Thing was sweet!

[speck-addict]

Wind was kicking today poor day fishing. Had to call it quits early cause of engine trouble. Big thanks to the Sheriff lol.

My boat is blue with a white Suzuki 175 4 stroke . If you ever see me come say hey. Your more then welcome to check it out.

He's towed me in a few times over the years.

I figured it would have been dead calm on the lake this am with all that fog.
