    Use a vacuum to see what comes out. Part of periodic maintenance. The other day I sucked a bottle cap from the previous boat owner (that was 11 years ago). Stuff blows around down there. There should be a connecting tube to answer your question

    Running it across your nail burns your ass? Strange connection you got going there LOL!

    Nothing that a dremmel tool and a few swipes with a stone-bit can't take care of.

    At those depths they are probably steelhead or shaker sized kings. If you want to see what they are you would put out some spoons with orange. A couple riggers maybe a 4 and 5 color leadcore off some boards. Dipsys out about 40-50'

    My years of pier fishing in the eighties I would witness similar 4 hour feeding activity gaps. Nobody would be catching anything then all of a sudden everyone was hooking up for 30 minutes then quiet again. I don't know if it is a metabolism thing or if fish got acclimated to hatchery feeding schedules. Just checked and Altmar feeds their fish by hand dispersal every 6-8 hours. Recollection of feeding Windows on Ontario trolling would be first light, 8:30/10:30, 12:00/2:00, 4:00/6:00, last light.

    My solo spread would probably one wire diver with a flasher down in chinook water and two rigger lines chasing the marks on my graph

    Must be a weight to drag ratio allows for some additional sinking. I would be skeptical of much beyond an additional 20' of depth gain at traditional salmon trolling speeds

    I see that little dude in your hand and I wonder why the hell I can't catch a fish on a "dirty white boy" pattern stinger

    For sure walleyes that are neutral require a more subtle "ice fishing-like" vertical approach. Spend some time GPS marking some humps on Erie for just such an occasion. If the wind isn't blowing enough to get them active try going vertical

    If I see a ton of boats, I go the other way. Keep them all gaggled up IMO and go find quiet water

    Gordy the mature fish lived thru two bad winters which knocked their feeding metabolism down. Don't expect huge fish.

    250' and 400 are nice lengths as traditionally many fish are caught at 50' and 80' range. You could also just add torpedo weights to your leadcore rigs

    Pictures of kings this year seems to show 50/50 adipose present and/or missing.

    I would not be taking a 650' copper in 100'. Your 450' will hit bottom in 100' if you are not careful to drive straight

    It has crossed my mind

    Beyond my scope of expertise but thanks for the advise. Problem manifested after a new cap and rotor was installed. My guess is either the new parts were made in China and don't match exactly or expert tweaking is needed with a dwell meter. Not a gas issue

    Double keeled otterboats. Pull hard and can be utilized in rough water.

    Below Massena dam?

    Shutting down but you can keep it going by throttling back down

    Having trouble finding anyone willing to work on an OMC points distributor, problem solving an apparent advance timing issue that causes my engine to shut down when I approach 3000 rpm. They need to be able to work on the boat on the water under load. Thanks gentlemen.

    I know some fishermen who make fish cakes (like crab cakes) and enjoy them

    FishUSA bought GreatLakesTackle Shop which has the pre-made stealth core lengths for sale

    I would think one of those clear wiggle fin disks in front of a barrel swivel set rod-length away from the lure, would catch or redirect weeds away from your bait.

    Contact Al VanDusen on Spoonpullers he can tell you if the bonnet is happening. With the strong currents there it is here-today-gone-tomorrow there I believe
