Introduced in 2005, the ChatterBait bladed jig was the result of years of experimentation by Ron Davis, Sr., a lifelong tinkerer with a background in research and development who refined blade shape, placement and vibration.

Try slip floats at night for walleyes.Walleyes have something in common with bats and owls theyre more suited to nighttime activities than the glare of the noonday sun. Theyd rather live in Moonglade than the Land of the Eternal Sunshine. Under certain conditions, such as following cold fronts, calm days or during unusually hot weather, walleyes are driven to the dark side by the bazillions.
Spring through early summer, a slip-float rig is the way to go at night, and few anglers know more about it than Wisconsin walleye guide Greg Bohn. Bohn is the author of several books and articles on the subject, and over the years designed plenty of rods, floats, leaders, rigs and jigs for slip-bobber tactics.
The Thill Splash Brite really simplified slip-bobber fishing at night, Bohn said. It has electrodes that use the lake water to complete the circuit. When it hits the water, the light comes on. Pull it out of the water, and its off.
Bohn says night fishing tends to be good whenever conditions are bad for daytime fishing.

Eagle/Juno lake anglers have reason to smile.
Their prayers have been answered.
An abandoned property on the east end of Eagle will be converted into a quality boating/fishing access with parking and boat launches to serve both of the popular waterways.
The Michigan DNR has agreed with First Source Bank to purchase the former Dock Property near Edwardsburg and develop it into a multiple public access facility.
Preliminary plans include a parking area for the Eagle Lake boat launch, development of the pond located on the property into a family fishing site, and a boat launch on the channel leading to Christiana Lake and the Juno Chain.
