Consider Capt Pete Alex of Vision Quest Charters out of Erie, PA. He has multiple boats and gives teaching charters. You can stay at the state park and enjoy the beach.

27lb Tuf-line micro lead. It lasts a lot longer because the sheath is spectra and won’t rot or absorb water. Thinner diameter allows for smaller reel size. For knots you pull out 5” of lead and tie a trilene knot to backing or leader. Burn knot ends with a lighter and zero frays.

I have a 13 lber and a 12 lber custom painted if interested.

Deeper deliveries on inside lines, longer but shallower on outside. For leadcore I use line counter reels so I can keep track of distance back so not to violate that principal. For two per side, I might run a 5 color on the outside and a seven or eight color on the inside. The five color will be let out further to extend 10' beyond the inside line. Mark on each reel the distance to the end of the leader to make it easy. The inside line gets let out + say 20' of backing so the knot is in the water. The outside line is set out + say 70' of backing to extend beyond the inside bait. You could put a leadcore on the outside line and a copper on the inside line. Same with divers. A mag dipsy on the inside line and a standard dipsy or a slide diver on the outside diver.

Alewives winter on the bottom following the foodweb, kings follow.

With the overhead ice, the emeralds will be in the Niagara.

7 locations sampled........7! We trollers know 90% of the fish are in 10% of the water.

30’s for riggers- plenty of line capacity for 30lb test.

Never had them flip.

After reviewing the article which depicts the locations of the bottom trawl survey I see some real problems with the accuracy of the methodology. I am shocked at how few areas are sampled on Lake Michigan. They have not adapted the same wider sampling strategies now being deployed on Lake Ontario. Keep in mind the net only opens to 18 m or 59’ and stays down for only 5 minutes per sampling. There are huge voids in the sampling locations on Michigan. I can telll you there were a few times when I was on the Kaho when the fishfinder showed heavy bait under the boat but with as much as 2000’ of cable out, we missed the fish. I know the water is much less fertile than Ontario but I can’t help but think there may be more fish than is being reported.

Double Keeled otter boats. Because you can run them in any weather.

I think they found zero alewives in last years Huron trawls.

Look at Lyman’s. They have a cray action. You can find them up at the St Catherine’s Bass Pro.

Intelligent men wrote those amendments, not aggressive. Your strange usage of the English language make me think you are perhaps a Russian Bot stirring up trouble.
