It's worth having 2 of them!Sent from my E6782 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Great advice. It will certainly shorten your learning curve to fish with a captain from your home port. There are a lot of captains willing to teach and also put some fish in the boat.

saw 3 big toms strutting around a bunch of hens today. along with a bright red headed jake running around on the parkway

36ft leader of 20# fluorocarbon is all you need for small spinnys and spoons on leadcores. 16-18" of 30# fluoro for coho fly leaders Sent from my E6782 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Yes a full 1000 ft plus you will need some backer to fill the spool to full capacity. 90 yards of 30# mono is perfectSent from my E6782 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Ice out on Sandy has finally happened. There is still a lot of shore ice and icebergs to contend with.

Catalinas if you can do it. Otherwise cold watersSent from my E6782 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

While it is true the first issue of Cold Waters had their issues... but that has past. One of the nice things with Okuma is they have a reel for everyones budget. Starting with the classics, Magnas, convectors, cold waters, catalinas. You get what you pay for and the quality of each reel is seen as you spend more money. I have fished with each of them and have seen it first hand. If your shopping for wire divers reels then I would always suggest a higher end reel. I currently have a 50/50 mix of convectors and cold waters and the majority of people that have fished with me prefer the cold waters. No doubt you will be very happy with Cold Waters as wire reels.

Great event with an impressive turnout! I think we can all look forward to having the event again next year.

Blood Run Tackle all the way. If you had an issue you should email them, they have great customer service. IMO, their wire is the highest quality wire on the market today so your fishing with the right stuff. Its an .015 marine grade stainless wire with a 43# breaking strength which equals small diameter, great raw material, and high breaking strength. As for reel setups... I use Okuma 30 series reels. We spool on an entire 1000' of wire but in order to have a full spool (which is important to keep the counter correct), I also spool on 90 yards of 30# mono as "backer". My routine is this... Okuma 30 series reel. I put one wrap of electrical tape on the entire spool. I connect the 30# mono to the spool using an arbor knot and spool on 90 yards. I then connect the mono backer the the SS wire with an albright knot and spool on a 1000' of wire with a lot of tension. I connect a heavy duty swivel to the business end with a simple overhand knot. Wire is tough to spool by hand and close to impossible to get it right. The first time I use this setup on the boat I deploy 900' of the wire with a tripped diver attached to it and reel it back in. Then i know all of the wire is tight on the spool.

By the looks of things it will be blown out soon. Id be surprised if the ice makes it through the weekend.
