Nurse shark….biggest one was maybe 6 feet

Thanks!!

No problem at all! That would be fun! We starting to get booked up for the summer so shoot me a message on facebook or insta, we can exchange phone numbers, and we can get you on the books

@@RyanSaid19 awesome, sounds good! Thanks! We might be planning it for next year, this summer is getting by us too quick…

Sorry for the late reply on this, but glad you found it helpful! Definitely better than just notes on your phone. I was working on mine just now and reading over things in preparation for future trips and it is so useful. Good luck!

Definitely though about that…they will need a once over clean before they get in the game for sure

Maybe hang them with your reel covers on them. Tight Lines!

Thanks! Feel free to hit me DM me on Instagram or Facebook and we can chat…maybe figure some things out

Thank you sir! This is as about “artsy” as I get haha

Thanks so much!

Easy to do…enjoy!

Thanks! I enjoy getting organized….helps me relax haha

I actually have it on my right unit but not the left….always forget to tack it on to my Tacklewarehouse orders haha! Will get it soon…it is pretty amazing what it does. Thanks for the compliments!

….of course just as soon as we say that the MLF guys tear it up on cranks haha! But overall through the year I would still say it had not been as good as…suspect it will be back

@@RyanSaid19 I agree 100%

Thanks so much!

Man that is a tough one....you probably won't like my answer but I would say you need to try both. If I had to pick one I would still say flats, but flats with features...maybe some rocks or small humps on them or little patches of grass. We are in that transition time of year where you could have some summer fish still on deep flats, or fall fish getting on the humps and shoals......or some mix thereof! If you look back at what Seth Fieder did in that Bassmaster tournament a couple years ago in the fall on St. Clair, he was still targeting flats, but flats with little humps and such near current. I have not fished the St. Mary's so I don't know about the current situation, but they will definitely be moving into current and setting up. The GREAT thing about crankbaits is you can fish them fast, and if the fish you want are there (meaning a good school) one of them will take a poke at your bait. Best thing I can say is cover some water!

@@RyanSaid19 thanks Ryan. It’s an incredibly diverse stretch of water between Sault st Marie and Lake Huron. Lots of current near the channels. Very rocky body of water. It should be peak color change up there. I like your recommendations on having a good mix of fish stages. Definitely going to try everything with cranks

Believe it or not it is a pretty busy time of year for us. Folks want to get that list minute trip in before the season ends. I work closely with Marcel...all of us guides that work for him put a portion of our guide trips into "the pot" for advertising and such. If you want to shoot me a message on Facebook or Instagram I can let Marcel know what we have going on.

If you really want to get the feel for it, start on a high percentage area like out from Harley Ensign….just work on getting bites and feeling what they feel like. Go with a 3/16 or 1/4 head too to start, again to make sure you can feel it if you are in a lot of current it can be hard to get the feel since it’s so light

@@RyanSaid19 Never fish Harley Ensign but I'll spend some time there. Now I am determined to catch something before the snow flies, lol. Thanks for your help.

It’s true mostly….but I don’t worry about that too much. Those fish are meaning to eat it on the fall…they suck it in so just be sure to check in with your bait as soon as it hits the bottom by counting it down (so they don’t swallow it)…sometimes you can see the line twitch but as long as you check in before to long

Thanks so much!

Thanks! Yes, none of that other stuff means much if you don’t get it in front of the fish! I always tell my clients to start with a “low and slow” retrieve, then gradually work their way up to a higher speed if the fish are not responding. The more active the fish, this higher and faster we wind....but alas active fish are not the norm haha!

It will work for sure....what I have noticed is that my clients (any myself) land more fish with the medium light in most circumstances. What I mean by that is if, for example, over the course of week my clients catch 100 fish on tubes, with a medium light rod I have found they will land 85 to 90 or more of those fish (all other things being equal) whereas with a medium heavy they might land 75-80 of those fish. Keep in mind the skill level of the angler factors in a lot and I see a wide variety of skill levels in my clients. The lighter rod just absorbs more of the hard head shakes from smallmouth and makes it less likely for them to throw the light wire hooks

@@RyanSaid19 makes sense. I have a 13 Fishing 7' MH/F that I am going to try this year. We'll see how it goes. Thanks for the explanation.

Good luck!!

Thanks so much! I have some more content lined up, but are there things you would like to see videos on? Sometimes it’s hard to know what people want to know about when you have fished one place for so long. Good luck this weekend!

that sun is pretty direct out there....could be painful but would make for a good story haha!

@@RyanSaid19 I seem to remember a certain Said doing that almost 25 years ago, and regretting it for much of the next week. lol

@@ndcollins yes haha....regrettable but memorable times!

...you expected less?

Glad to help! If you have questions but would be happy to help!

Thanks so much!

I appreciate it! Doesn't feel real natural but getting there!
