    Great fishing at the Oak this morning. 100-130' 70' to the bottom. Best fly was an A-TOM-MIK white halo shred. Familiar Bite also did damage

    Raymarine makes some really nice stuff, and I've seen their chirp first hand this year on two different boats. In my opinion for what we do it's not necessary. Just like Humminbirds side and down imaging isn't necessary, and wont help you catch more fish for what we do. Not to mention most guys out there that cant use the 2D sonar they have correctly! Is it a nice tool to learn and have? YUP! However, the average guy getting out a few times a month, if that, doesn't need to waste money on that technology, again in my opinion. Here are some screen shots from my bird. Play with all of them and make your decision: Also, with Humminbird you get the ability to plug and play with a mulitfunctional screen unlike Furuno You have GPS, and can add Radar: There are also a ton of diferent color pallets to chose from. I like to use this at night or in the morning running:

    All units mentioned will do what you need. If you want any info on Humminbirds Vince P and myself run them, and we are very pleased with them.

    I agree! This kid is just bragging away on here, and giving shameless plugs. Look at me...Look at me.... There is a reports section on this great site where you can actually give details on the fishing out of your port. Specific lures, depths, and areas help people out, and believe me they will appreciate it!

    Good Quality line is a must! We run McCoy Mean Green 25lb test all season. When we are running spoons we leader down (Flouro) to 10lb for BT and 15lb for Salmon. When we are running 8" paddles we use 20lb flouro leaders, and when we run meat paddles its the mono straight to the paddle. You also need to make sure your line weights are rated for the action rods your using.

    It's just that time of year! The Salmon are transforming. Digestive systems are shutting down which means they are striking to feed necessarily, but out of anger. Sunday morning out of the Oak we went 12/31 on Salmon in 45-65' of water. Some days are better than others. Monday we went 6/12.

    Congrats to Paul Czarnicki and his Free Spirit for winning the 2014 King of the Oak. This is a really fun series, and we'd like to see it grow next season.

    Bob gives awesome reports on Facebook. Join his charter page, and if he fishes the video report is there after his trip. I've been asking him to post them to his Twitter account. I might have to go personally set it up for him next year. It was not Brian. It's intention was to give reports as quick as possible to help people catch more fish from guys who are out there more than most. The problem is some of these guys have their Twitter account linked to their Facebook account, and they don't realize it. We've stressed to people about what info to Tweet about, but I feel some just don't get it. It could be a very helpful tool to the weekend angler if these Captains used it right, and they would get more exposure than they could ask for if they used it right. I try to monitor as best I can and delete the pleas for business, but I am not around enough sometimes. As for Motoman signing up.....NO! Well, maybe if he paid up his side bet he owes my brother from smoking his team at the Oak Orchard Open I'd think about it. #soarlosersyndrome

    The Familiar Bite in the ziplock bags, not the old tubs, seems to be holding up well this year. That's all we've been using, and it has worked well for us.

    They were hitting a slider on a 30 rigger. No need for long leads with Steel. They are aggressive. We don't typically go longer than 40' on our riggers.
  23. Yankee Troller
    Fished from 4-8pm last night. It was ROUGH! There was a break out on the 28 that went from 60 on top to 56. Steel were all over it, and some big ones too! Same lures used last weekend produced, and pictures of them can be found in that report. Riggers in the top 40 with sliders. Divers out 60-80' on 3's, and a 5 color core.

    Why are you always so negative and hurtful to other board members Scott?
