Thanks nsfisher...both from last year...fishing has been great the last few years during all seasons...based on the excellent fall walleye bite, my gut says it will be a very good hard water season as well... One thing I will be doing more diligently this year is reeling up the walleye slowly to keep the airsack in place....caught so many 12-13 inchers last year and don't want to harm them.
Just curious what depth range do you have to be at when you should worry about the slow wind up? Have just booked my 1st trip to Nip and am really looking forward to it.

I have been told anything deeper than 20 feet...it is tough as you want to get the fish up... does anyone know...if the airsack comes into the mouth and the fish is released, does it survive?

I have heard that if you poke the air sack with a sharp object the air will be released and the fish will be able to go down into the water without any adverse effects. I have done it and the fish have swam away but have no proof it they survive.

Appleseed, I got the rapala ps6 on boxing day at crappy tire as well. My is unfortunately not broken in yet. How does it hold up in the wind?
szabi,
That was the first time out and the wind was dead but its easy to set up and take down. Lots of anchors provided and even the strings to anchor the sides and tons of room inside
