    Okuma 45 series is what you are looking for. If you have the money than an Okuma Clarion 453 is top choice. Great drag and 6 to 1 ratio is a big help. As for backing, I always use Blood Run braid. It has been developed specifically for use as backing. 65# test break strength but has the same diameter as typical 30# braid. It is also metered so it changes colors every 100 and its marked every 50.

    You definitely need backing. Okuma 30 series reels hold more line then 1000' of wire will fill. It is very important to spool your wire reels to full capacity to help insure that the counters are accurate. Heres some instructions... -put a wrap of electrical tape around reel spool (helps prevent line from slipping on spool) -attach backer to spool with an arbor knot -spool on 250' of 30# mono (really anything will work Braid or mono) -attach backing to wire using an albright knot -spool on 1000' of ss wire (make sure the wire goes on tight) -attach large swivel to business end with a loop knot

    Yeah but we are trying to create something great for Lake Erie the same way Lake Ontario United has done for Lake Ontario/

    I wouldnt fear the boat but instead fear the boat owner. A boat is only as good as its owner. Theres good ones and theres bad ones. Bring another set of qualified eyes to look at the boat. Your mechanic would be a great choice and ALWAYS invest in a survey.

    Theres no reason that you cant tie up certain lengths of leaders and have them ready to go. I have numerous pretied leaders on the boat for just about every application. And i store them with one of these http://www.cabelas.com/product/Lindy-Spinner-Wrap-Kit/737752.uts?productVariantId=1200294&srccode=cii_17588969&cpncode=36-169258553-2&WT.tsrc=CSE&WT.mc_id=GoogleProductAds&WT.z_mc_id1=00022662&rid=20 FYI, you should be running high quality swivels to connect your baits to the business end of all of your rods especially flashers and spoons.

    No, we havent seen a "typical" spring since 2013. The cold winters have made things unique for the past couple of years. The east end has seen great spring KIng action and Rochester King fishing has been stellar following the past two cold winters. This year we should experience a more typical spring fishery and make the west even better.

    You could but it is not necessary. Instead just run your divers on two different setting. For example: the inside rod on a 1 setting and the outside rod on a 3

    Problem is the Daiwa Seagate 60 actually has a larger capacity then the okuma 55. No matter what manufactures say. Sent from my E6782 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Heres a link to copper spooling and Okuma reels... http://www.lakeontariounited.com/fishing-hunting/topic/52303-okuma-reels-copper-spooling-chart/

    An Okuma 55 spooled with 500' of 45# copper along with a leader will only have the remaining capacity to spool on 100' of braid backer. I have done and run it (as a chute rod) and it is not something i would suggest.

    Skipper, all of my reel fill numbers are not calculations or estimates. They were physically done and confirmed by me personally. http://www.lakeontariounited.com/fishing-hunting/topic/52303-okuma-reels-copper-spooling-chart/

    Solterra. You can only fit about 100' of backing on a 553 with 500' of copper Check out this link... http://www.lakeontariounited.com/fishing-hunting/topic/52303-okuma-reels-copper-spooling-chart/

    Current lake conditions... ice for as far as the eye can see. https://t.co/jaoMX4QpK5

    For first timers running copper i would never suggest for you to go out and buy a 600' copper. Start with something like 400' or less and learn the ins and outs of copper first. Just like with everything else, there is a learning curve.

    It really depends on the boat and the amount of coverage. $500-1000Sent from my E6782 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
