  1. Heres the first batch of copper trolling depth numbers from Blood Run Tackle, tested and confirmed using the new Smarttroll unit. These numbers are at 2.5 mph. Sent from my C771 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  2. Low water is not an issue. Plenty of water in the channel. Sandy seems to of hit its highest water level of the year, just in the past 2 weeks.
  3. No swivels. Just a surgeons loop or a double surgeons loop
  4. Better late then never! Saturday... We left dock dead set on finding Kings. Kings, KIngs, Kings! We set up inside of 90 fow and pointed Northeast in full search mode. We eventually found what we were looking for in 160-170 fow and pulled fish from a short 1/2 mile spot. Working waypoints, we had a steady pick of mostly Kings (all classes and up to low 20s), a few small Lakers (up really high), and a steelhead. Blood Run divers out 100-145' w/ Spin Doctors and flies saw the most action for us. 5 color leadcore pulling a Irish car bomb along with riggers with green dot SD/flies, DW SS orange slurpie, and DW paddle and meat all took fish for us. On a side note... huge scum line with a slight temp break out in about 200 fow but we found zero fish on it. East wind along with the 2' east chop absolutely killed the bite for us at 10:00. Like a switch was flipped. 14 bites up to that point and only 1 bite from 10-12. Our screen vaporized! Sunday... We left the dock with yesterdays Kings still fresh in our heads only to be greeted by the east wind and that 2' east chop that shut us down the day before. We set up inside and headed to our waypoints from the day before. But before we reached our destination, 300' copper starts screaming. Low 20s KIng. Great way to start the day. But what a huge difference a day makes... At 10:30 we had only 3 bites but lucky for us a late morning bite put 5 more fish in the boat. Opposite of yesterdays early bite. Today it was all Kings (all classes and up to low 20s). 300' Blood Run coppers with green dot Spin Doctors/ flies along with a DW paddle and meat took our bigger fish. High spoons off the riggers NBK, glow Gator, hammer also took fish for us. Unlike the day before the divers were quiet. Best depth today was 110-140' and west of the creek. Much cleaner screen then the day before.
  5. you could hit 35-45' down with 150' copper at those speeds! I bump bottom with my 450 around 90 fow at 2.2-2.4 downspeed.
  6. captains cove has them
  7. Ok, so Ill wait to say that it looks go on Android too!
  8. if using a swivel... Palomar knot
  9. Welcome to LOU!
  10. line counter would certainly do that for you. you could paint mark every 50 or 100' of copper also.
  11. Fyi, line counter are not needed with copper. Okuma Convector 55 or Okuma Clarion 553 are both good choices and they will hold up to 300' of Blood Run 60# copper.
  12. Welocome to LOU!
  13. Fishing continues to be good from Sandy. We set down in 90 fow pulling a set dominated by flasher flies. Great screen inside of 120' but we managed to only pull Lakers from it. 300' Blood Run coppers, wire divers, and riggers with Spin Doctors and flies all took fish for us. We made a move out to deeper water and found some silvers in 180-220 fow. We were rewarded with some Kings, a coho, and a 10#8oz Brown (which ate a flasher fly off a deep wire diver). 50/50 bite out there with DW SS spoons vs Spin Doctors. High spoons on the high riggers and 5 color core took fish along with 300' Blood Run coppers, wire divers, and deep riggers all with Spin Doctors and flies.
  14. My truck was broken into a number of years ago there also. They stole my change...
  15. I run a Subtroll and im a fan of it but with that being said Fishhawk really got it right with the X4 and X4D. Truely industry leading technology.
  16. Spoons? What are those???
