[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]I never broke the camera out. Fishnate, our professional photographer, took a few shots. He'll have to post a few.[/size][/black][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]I didn't buy new a new fishfinder. I bought a console mounted GPS with full mapping and routing data and capabilities. I also bought the Navionics Hotspot map chip which shows an excellent map of Lake Powell as well as 1500 other lakes in the western US. The problem is, as with all maps of Lake Powell, the maps show the high water levels and not the current low water levels. I set a waypoint at the pick up dock at the launch and it showed it a 1/4 mile into the lake. It's a very nice grey scale unit for a budget minded boater and has all the capabilities of the more expensive color units.[/size][/black][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]The spawn starts in May-June time period. Weather will dictate the exact time. This is the time to catch a hog. The larger fish will come in shallower, at night to spawn and that is when they are most vulnerable.

[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]I knew exactly what was going on with the truck driver. I just went with the old saying "ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies". I saved $10 and I left it at that. No need to ask questions. Ethical? Not really. Can I live with myself? No problem.[/size][/black][/font]
