I’d try a topwater or Paddletail on a straight retrieve. It shouldn’t be too difficult to keep a Paddletail off of the shell

Great explanation

Like Medicman mentioned. We discussed the night vision on Wayne’s boat for a few minutes during the livestream last week. It’s pretty impressive

No problem….. put it to work catching some good ones 👍

I had a roughly 6 month old Dakota lithium battery completely die on me one morning during a trout tournament. That was late Jan/early Feb. it’s being replaced under warranty, but we’re in June now and I still don’t have the replacement or even an estimated date I’ll receive it. If I were buying a new lithium now I’d take a close look at Lone Star Marine lithium batteries. I’m hearing nothing but good things from guys who use them

Outside of the shell as you come into Nick’s there’s no real hazards that I’m aware of. As you hit the cut to run back into Salt lake it’s kind of a shallow flat on the right side, but just a small patch of shell on the right of the cut.. There’s some shell off of the points on the west side of of Nicks, so I’d just be mindful of that if you’re close to that shoreline and water is low

Yes Keith we use leaders and quick connect clips. The quick connect clips definitely save a lot of time and leader material if you’re changing out baits or jigheads regularky

Exactly

I like some of the Energizer head lamps. They put out plenty of light, aren’t that big or heavy, and they’re like $15/$20.
