Hi, my name is Harley.
I have a fishing shack 10 miles North of Prarie Du Chien Wisconsin. My buddy and I use it as a home base and
usually fish 1 or 2 pools North or South on Saturday and head the opposite direction on Sunday. We usually fish Bass but take a couple hours on Sunday afternoon to catch 3 or 4 Walleye so his wife can have a fish fry during the week. Been enjoying reading this forum, seems to be a likable bunch that hangs around here hope there are a few river rats in the group maybe hook up over on the river sometime. Right now the Bass are starting to get active in the pad fields near us !
Tight lines everyone !

Hey AM. Welcome. Glad to have you join us. Post some pics of some of those bass and eyes.
Sure wish I lived closer so I could take you up on the offer to get together. Good luck and tight lines.

Great bunch of lure lobbers here looks like, probably won't see many pics. from me as I am NOT computer literate enough for posting pictures and other things, I know just enough to handle my E-Mail and spend a whole bunch of money on E-Bay ! Found a few sport shops in China that sell lures for pennies on the dollar but have up to 3 months delivery. Gots to order there after you put the rig away for winter, can restock the tackle box after late season inventory !
We only keep the smaller walleye between 16 to 19 inches .

Welcome from Woodstock Ga. We are just getting the first breath of fall this weekend after hurricane 🌀 Sally came through and filled all of the creeks. I'm hoping that the cooler weather will get the lazy bass on the move.

Thanks for the warm welcome guy's, the big river has been abnormally high for the last 3 years and is just getting down to normal river stage in the last couple weeks. When the water is over the islands it's a bitch getting back into the timber where they go to ! Powering over down logs is a great way to knock off your transducer bracket.
Don't ask me how I know THAT !

Welcome Harley from a former cheesehead resident. Now in NE TN. Lived in DePere, Appleton, Oshkosh, Fondy and Racine. We got plenty of bass down here too. I don't miss those WI winters.

Iowa winters aren't much to write home to mother about either ! I have wondered for many years why in hell I stayed here so long, it's a toss up between being too poor or too dumb to leave ! After 77 years I finally figured it out.
All of the above !

Welcome to the Forum, agate. Your fishing shack must be up by Lansing, Iowa. A great little town, depending who our gov. is in two years, that could be my next move. I know all about those trees and stumps. i have boat insc. and they wanted to put me on "risk insc." because I had put on so many lower units on.
