I Foresee the Winner of the NWC
 

The winner will be the boat that works the deepest water of the first cove
of Bass Lake on Day 1 with a Chrome/Blue (Sunny Day) Mag Force Rat-L-Trap or
Chrome/Black on Cloudy Days slowly. Letting the big trap settle to the
bottom before working it with two quick turns of the reel, pause to let it
die, then one quick turn of the reel, pause and repeast. Keeping that big
trap bounce off the bottom and through the weeds. Yes, I foresee you will
get a few hang-ups in the grass, but it will be worth. Then as the bite
slows cast in a 3-1/2" tubebait with a 1/8-ounce ball jig inserted all the
way inside and slowly dragged on the bottom (using a spinning rod with 8-lb
test line). But I also see the occassional need to have a rod rigged with a
Pop-R or Spit'n Image to capitalize on bass busting shad/minnows. This is
especially true on Day #2, when I see the winner using the same
presentations, but working the three mouths of the coves about 1,500 yards
upstream of the Island (at the mouth of Boom Lake) on Rhinelander River. Two
of the three coves will be on the left side of the river and the third on
the the right side of the river. Remember I said on the edge, because the
fish will be on the breakline of the main river channel near the mouths of
these coves.

Its just a prediction...........
