Shoal Creek Report from 2/1

Hey y’all!!! I knew this, but I didn’t learn it firsthand until this week—spot-lock is just a dang gamechanger. Fished on Shoal Creek for the warmest day we’ve had in a month, and boy was it a good afternoon! Trolling just wasn’t producing, so we found a wad huggin bottom in around 15 FOW and decided to spot-lock about 8 feet away from them. Pulled in 16 keepers in 2 hours to include 6-7 slabs. Threw back another 10 shorties, some bluegill, and quite a few stripers. Water held at 45 degrees the whole time. Wind was around 10 MPH, but the new Ultrex held Tina the SeaArk like a champ!

Nice box full of fish…congratulations

Ain't nothing better than sitting on a spot and not have to fool with the troller. Nice catch.

Good job and great report good to see you back on here.

X2. That is a nice box of fish

I've heard rumors of crappie on Wilson. Glad you found some.

way to go. Hope to play some with spot lock myself soon.

I cannot believe that you would stoop to the crutch of spot lock, what kind of fisherman are you if you can’t control your boat using a regular foot control trolling motor, everyone knows that you can’t catch fish when using spot lock. I absolutely love my Terrova and it absolutely can be a game changer and make the limited time I have the opportunity to fish much more enjoyable. Glad to see that you had a good day. 😉

Nice box of fish. I’ve fished Wilson alot, I was always after bass at the dam though. Need to go give it a try one day been a few years since I’ve been down there.

Nice box of fish !
love the spot lock feature !
but mine on my ulterra has a very bad spirit! It does what it wants to do and goes crazy more than not . I have tried re calibrating several times and it still goes bonkers ! :banghead

Sounds like a bad battery connection. That or update the unit. Mine works perfect, other then when I'm so dumb trying to use it. Then its like me and my smart phone. I'm on the loosing end then.
My spot lock will hold me within 2ft of the mark. Also love the jog on mine also.

Good day! WTG

what do you mean lower the boat scale, sometimes mine would eject me if i was standing
