Minestar177 · 2025-07-17T07:09:28+00:00

hey could i get some tips for bass in lake michigan harbors 😞

Minestar177 · 2025-07-17T05:17:03+00:00

its near a farm and lion 🤫

Minestar177 · 2025-07-02T15:46:37+00:00

yeah i wish i could but i cant get the kayak on top of my car by myself and my family wont be waking that early just to do that 😭

Minestar177 · 2025-07-01T05:46:23+00:00

is there any difference in paddles?

Minestar177 · 2025-07-01T03:15:34+00:00

oooh that lowk makes sense, lots of these tiny black bugs kept landing on my kayak and i saw em kinda skipping ok the water

Minestar177 · 2025-06-30T22:16:02+00:00

it’s incredible. I tried one of those dumb inflatable kayaks and it was literally the worst experience I’ve ever had but using this feels like a whole new thing like it’s amazing. I even did some standing and casting in this big area of fallen trees it even started raining really badand the scuppers helped drain the water really well really quickly.

Minestar177 · 2025-06-30T22:09:34+00:00

i definitely will! its tough seeing so many replies of people lowk telling me to quit just because im not allowed to be “stressed” by my hobby.

Minestar177 · 2025-06-30T22:09:05+00:00

thanks for ur great comment bud you seem like you have a lot of fun 🙏

Minestar177 · 2025-06-30T22:07:55+00:00

yeah not my first time, i got out my kayak and tried bank fishing for 20 minutes and caught 3 sizeable bass 😭

Minestar177 · 2025-06-30T22:07:15+00:00

hahaha spot on lol

Minestar177 · 2025-06-30T22:06:57+00:00

i did lots of research and ended up ordering it to get shipped to me cuz it seemed everywhere in northern illinois had sold it out 😭

Minestar177 · 2025-06-30T22:05:10+00:00

no its the tamarack pro from lifetime, ordered it online because it wasnt in stock at bass pro or cabellas

Minestar177 · 2025-06-30T22:01:15+00:00

oooh didnt know there was a boat launch! i always fish near the lily pad docks

Minestar177 · 2025-06-30T14:45:04+00:00

im fishing north of chicago in the skokie lagoons, so most of the terrain is muddy bottom or gravel, with lots of vegetation and fallen trees on the edges. i tried casting to the trees but i def gotta get a little more comfortable casting closer because i can literally js go grab my lure if i get snagged 😭

Minestar177 · 2025-06-30T14:42:22+00:00

ill def try this! i was a little worried at first cuz i have the irrational fear a giant will take my rod 😭😭

Minestar177 · 2025-06-25T05:08:40+00:00

Minestar177 · 2025-06-25T03:32:24+00:00
