  1. I have a minn kota endura 30 and i got this battery from a friend along with this charger for free http://www.midstatebattery.com/marine.htm its the 12 volt deep cycle model dc24 Battery: Charger: 6 amp sears oldie but free How long should i charge this battery? is it safe to charge that model battery with that charger?
  2. Just a couple pictures from my camera phone got about 11 fish total and the 1 good size perch. I had some trouble working the frog my friend and i threw a horny toad and stanley frog for about a half hour they just werent hitting it or we were using it wrong. Went to a 4" senko rigged up weedless with a white grub guard/bead once i got the action and technique down i started to catch my share of bass. I wasnt used to fishing with the braided line at first and missed a few hooksets due to jumping the gun a bit before the bass really got the lure in its mouth. There really is a big difference in sensitivity between the mono and braid. The technique i was using on the frogs was just throwing them out to where i thought fish were holding and using a steady retrieve over the weeds and holes just enough to make the legs kick nicely. Not a bite.
  3. Heading out tomorrow morning (fri jun. 23rd) Picked up ribbits horny toads and senkos and re spooled my rod with some 20# green power pro and a fluro leader. Wish me luck ill report back the results..... possibly some pictures. Thanks again for the help
  4. Thanks for the replys, i didnt expect to get so much helpful advice. I def. need to do some shopping for frog and toad type baits before i go out again. How should i be rigging these frogs as far as penetrating it with the hook? should the hook be through its back like a storm shad would be ? I also didnt really fish the outskirts of the bed i just saw the fish and went full bore into the weeds where they were jumping. The only thing i have been fishing at this lake has been topwater floating along the banks throwing under trees and brush with mixed results.

  6. I fish a small-medium sized lake max depth is probably about 8 feet avg. depth i'd guess is about 3 feet. Ive been fishing on the lake about 5 times this year with mixed results usually getting about 2 to 3 LMB in a 6 hour fishing session lots of large bluegills pumpkinseed sunfish perch and scattered crappie. i know there are a good amount of bass in this lake. i really dont know what im doing when it comes to freshwater and ive been able to catch them on small silver and gold rapala 2" and a small grasshopper and crayfish rebel (hardbait) about 1" to 1 1/2" in size. Today i came across a patch of lake that i had never been to and like to think nobody else has been because of the distance you have to row to get to it (no motor boat lake). Depth was about 2 to 5 feet in some spots and it full of this stuff the fish were activly breaking the surface (LMB they were close enough to me to make a visual confirmation) once every 2 to 3 minutes in a 2 to 3 football field size area. I threw my rapala crawdad and grasshopper rebel was only able to hook up with 2 fish which i lost both in a 2 hour period it was very hard to keep the hooks clean and navigate the thick weed. What should i be using here? Im not even sure what the bass were chasing on the top of the water it looked like they were after the dragonflys that were hovering and landing on the weeds breaking surface. I have some 9s watermellon with red and black flake senkos and some 2/0 sugoi hooks on the way to me in the mail will these work for that type of cover? Sorry for the long post but im really motivated to get these fish they were pracitally jumping in the boat and i couldnt hook up.
