Hopefully I will be up in the next couple weeks with RobHal11. May put in at dale hollow Marina or Hendricks Marina area. Any tips or advice would be awesome. Will probably target smallmouth first walleye second. Pm me if needed.

Dakota, I'd wait another week or so to head to Dale, the lake is turning over which makes the conditions VERY tough. It should be better in a week or so.

Turn over is finally complete on Dale Hollow and the lake has stabilized. Walleye winter pattern is in full swing. Here's a nice 24 incher from this weekend.

That's an eye popping Walleye. I hope to get up there in the next few weeks.

Those are some crazy eyes Dave.

For some reason I can't help but imagine that fish in a forest next to another big eyed green fellow singing "Bein' Green."

The sub zero temps didn't adversely affect the walleye bite on Dale this week. We also managed a few nice smallies and some really stout spots.

Dear fishfinder general,

I have noticed in ALL of your posts, you only post PHOTOS, BUT NO INFORMATION, of the fish you or your clients catch.

Unlike most of us regular "joes" that post on this forum, you NEVER post particulars of your catches. Such as, what depth, what lures, what speed you are fishing, what area of the lake.

I get the idea that you just use this forum to troll for customers for your guide service by posting photos of nice fish.

Why don't you go start your own website dedicated to your guide service and leave us regular joes, that share a lot of information to try and help our fellow fishermen catch fish and enjoy our sport, to us and leave your advertising photos on your own website.

This has been on my mind for a while and tonight it just kinda pissed me off, seeing your photos with NO INFORMATION.

Do you really think we would take any information you posted and drive up to DHL and RUIN YOUR FISHERY???

Give us a break and go away!

agelessone, I'm an official guide endorsed by this site and a personal friend of TK's. I've been given permission to post whatever I choose on this forum. That being said, I've spent more than twenty years of time on the water on Dale Hollow (more than two hours travel time from my home) in the freezing cold temps putting together patterns on walleye and muskies on what is widely known as one of the most humbling bodies of water in all of North America. I give plenty of info out in PM format for who ever takes time to message me. Giving out lures, depths and locations on the information highway will not feed my family of five. My suggestion to you is that you is to do the work yourself. Get your XXX off the couch and these forums and stop being a XXX. Try spending some time on the water and you probably wont find yourself feeling so jealous all the time. Tight lines... by the way my site is http://www.trolldhl.com

Thanks for advertising your trolldhl.com. I've seen it. Not overly impressed.

And not whining too much, just think you should expand your advertising to sites that aren't so "friend" oriented.

But I do appreciate your feeble attempts at insults. Gotta admit, I have an ex-wife who was so much better at it than you, you don't even rate a blip on the insult radar.

Have a good one.

(Please excuse me for not lowering myself to your level and hurling insults, challenges, and insults over the internet.)

If you'd like my address, please feel free to PM me and I'll gladly send it to you and look forward to your visit.

Quit bitching and hire him for a guided trip on Dale Hollow.. Just showing up on a lake doesn't guarantee success, he put in the hours and has a lot to share with members that don't have fish envy.

Merv, it seems like you're drunk and can't handle your liquor. Am I getting this straight, you want to fist fight me now? You are a bully and a waste of all of these good people's time. All of this could have been handled thru PM and the fact that it wasn't shows a lot about your character. If you don't like my posts, you don't have to look at them.
