    .......and so the disease of the salmon mind begins. Soon you will be laying in bed at night staring at the ceiling while trying to figure out a full 11 rod FUBAR spread.

    Garry, the rod trees are designed to run multiple lines on planer boards off the side. The vertical separation created by the rod tree design allows for lines to clear each other when a fish hits and loads the rod. I agree that PVC would not hold up. Most of the major manufactures of fishing systems have a planer board rod tree base that you can mount on top of your gunnels. Getting your rods up high also serves to make your inline planer boards track further out.

    Alewife eater.

    That is when I put out my orange spoons.

    Alewives spawn in June. Most move inshore. Follow the food but be prepared to be frustrated by well fed salmon. Fish at low light times.

    Gill-T posted a topic in Walleye

    First Walleye trip of the year, finishing off where we left off last year by taking a two man limit in 2.5 hours in the “perch beds”. Downriggers and bottom bouncers with small perch colored blades. Threw back 10 or so shorts. A couple of 14-15 “ jack perch as bonus.

    Captain Valium would be my choice of “if I only could have one flasher”.

    Please post results

    The power cords on the cannons can be a problem. The two prong power male connectors can go out of contact with the metal sleeves on the female portion. Per Cannon, I was told to take a pair of pliers and spread the male connectors in opposite directions to reestablish good metal to metal contact with the female connectors. This has proven to work for me when I was getting stalling and "slow" power.

    Big boards I use Weldon's

    No point in spending all the money and time rigging up for salmon and then losing your gear because of your 15 lb leaders. 20 lb leaders on the copper or leadcore, 30 lb on dipsys if running flashers/flies.

    Does Seneca have a bait problem? Alewives and Walleye don't really mix well together. Kings or cohos might be another story. I doubt the DEC will want to stock another non-native species into the system.

    I have a bunch of them. Always was impressed with the quality of finish, quality of split rings and quality of hooks. Great spoon for steelhead when you want to cover some ground and get that speed over 2.5 mph. I have heard some of the early reproductions the new company put out had some issues with the paint jobs holding up? That was over a year ago so they probably have the kinks ironed out.

    The only thing you should be fishing for with a 10 lb leader is Browns or Walleye in shallow clear water. If you venture over laker/king water, change out your leaders to 20 lb.

    I grew up hunting a 5 mile by 3 mile block of woods but have always dreamed of the Adirondack experience. The idea of tracking mature bucks in the snow and not have worry if the track wanders onto a neighbor’s property pumps my nads.

    I might be up for throwing my hat back in the ring in the future. For now I have enjoyed doing benefit events like Healing Waters in Sodus and Reelin’ for a Cure. Great fun and atmosphere.

    Late spawn

    Gill-T replied to pikefreak's topic in Walleye

    The vast majority of late spawning Walleyes taken on Lake Erie are males. IMO taking males out now verses one month from now make no difference. The females don’t show up in catches for awhile. Now taking February prespawn giants in Detroit River is a different discussion ....that has never set well with me.

    Second tuf-line. Spectra sheath doesn’t degrade like Dacron and you tie a double wrap improved cinch to leader for easy assembly.

    Congrats on your first docking! Those crazy two year olds twisted off a couple of my Dreamweaver mag spoon hooks also. Bad split rings.
  24. Gill-T
    The bait is in top 30’. Move your fishfinder range and zoom to top 50’

    I actually had to work for my bites today.
