Yankee Troller

Yup

I started doing this on some of our cores, and I think I'm gonna do it for the rest of them this off-season.

Willis Knot is a great knot for core to leader. For backing to core I prefer the Albright.

Tuna Toms Tourney drags are very good!

If you want to make a 20 minute drive head West down Rt18 to Bandanas! Great food! Otherwise, head south on Rt 78 (I think) to Cafora's.

It's not new....The finned flasher is called a Pro Chip, and the one without is a Hot Chip.

Thx bud!

Not a problem Chris! I enjoy writing them, and our clients enjoy seeing themselves on the net! Next season can't come soon enough....until then expect cabin fever to kick in and guys 'tudes on the net to fly off the rocker every once and a while.

I disagree Bri....The East end of the Lake tore them up this spring due to a lack of Kings and clear water, which made the BT fishing tough. It's all they had! Not to mention you still have guys in the middle of the Lake who would rather set-up on those things rather than using them as a last resort. They still take a HUGE beating! Then there is this guy named Brian Gamble. This kid goes out and power fishes them FOR FUN!!!!

Have a good Winter and we'll see ya next season!

I'm in denial that Summer is gone!

One date was off.....We fished this past Thursday and Saturday. I don't get it bud....I remember fishing right into October as a kid.....

September 5th - Fishing was tough today! We had a group of six out for a Bachelor party. We ended the day going 3 for 6. We were able to put two small Salmon in the boat and a Steelie. Fishing has rally come to a halt out on the big pond! September 7th - We headed out and had to weave through the boats doing harbor patrol. Too many for our liking, so we motored out to 100’ of water and set lines. The picture was amazing, but we never turned a rod, and as the sun came up the fish sunk to the bottom. We pointed the boat North and trolled out to the 26N line, and still not a rod moved. There was so much bait out there it’s no wonder the fish weren’t eating. We told our guys at 8am we were going to cut the trip short and finish at 10am because it wasn’t worth the effort. Talking with captains all over the lake it seemed the whole lake was shut down. Anyway, we pointed her South and got back into the 130’ range around 9:45, and the picture looked good so we leveled out. No sooner did we do that and our 300’ diver takes off with a Marv’s Big Fatty Stinger E-Chip/A-TOM-MIK Glow Blue Hijacker. We put that gal in the boat, and no sooner our 130’ Cannon downrigger fires and it’s on! This fish fell for a Stinger 2 Face E-Chip/A-TOM-MIK Glow Hammer. We stuck to the plan, and headed in with a happy crew under the tough conditions. They understood how tough it was out there, and were willing to give it a go in 2014 when the Lake is back on fire!
