Here is two lakers we hooked up yesterday on Cisco Kid Wranglers

Great looking fish, Thanks

Nice fish Thanks for the picture

May this day bring all you wish for

Ted What time of the year are you going to be fishing for lakers, This time of the year out here they are suspended over deep water. There would be no need to bounce bottom. But in another 60 days you will have to get on the bottom for them. I use to use a snubber by Gold Star http://www.silverhorde.com Depending on the structure of the bottom , you can count on losing your balls but not snap your cable. So take plenty of balls with you.

Out west here I run the 7" Cisco KId Wrangler stick Bait by Suick lure company. I run them 50' off the ball clean. The lure will dive on it's own 18 to 20'. I use to run Cowbells and peanuts , with different offerings out west here. But have had better success by just running them clean and using the malato color lures

picked up at 50' of water with a Wrangler lure by Suick. We hooked up a total of 10 Mackinawa but only landed 2. All fish where caught on 8 lb test line

They are confused with Lake trout by a lot of anglers who can't tell them apart, But it is a Bull Trout which is protected by Oregon Fish and Game. 1st look at the tail of the fish.

Spent a few days up in Oregon with 2 friends , Flip landed a 10.8 lb Bull Trout off the planer boards in 5' of water

Nice MacKinaw ( lake trout )

Great picture Tom

Glad to see some one your age, at one of the greatest sports known to man. May you get all you wish for on this day

Rob Great pictures , keep them coming . Thanks from the west coast

Nice looking fish there BF, it must have warmed up a tad. The young lady has no shoes on. and holding dinner for 8 . Thanks for the report and picture from a guy from out west

I was born on 2-13-47 Thank you for your understanding in this matter , any any help you can provide so I can join your form . Thanks Stan

As most of you know I live in California , and have a number of friends that are guides out here. After hearing there horror stories of clients you could not pay me enough to do it. It's bad enough just with people you know at times, as you watch them lay at rod on the deck and then someone else steps on it and there goes a couple hundred dollars. It takes a person with more patience than the best psychiatrist one could afford . My hat is off to you guys and gals that do it for a living.

Great looking fish, Thanks

Great looking fish , sounds like a hell of a day a sea Captain. Thanks

Great pictures Bill

Nice day on the water and great pictures, thanks

Way to go guys , nice pictures almost did not see the guy in camo

there will be three of us fishing down deep 16' to 170' on Crescent Lake Oregon. The two Down Riggers will each have one rod, just thought the 3rd could go on dipsy with some help. I could use the steel line rod with a 1lb weight with 3 way swivel . I was just hoping I could use a dipsy diver some how. Ray your own , there will still be over 100' of water below where we need to get.

Guys thanks for the input, but I just got my May issue of Great Lakes Angler and my answer is on page 8,Torpedo divers . So I order a few in hopes it will work for us out here. Now I just hope they get here before the 30th

How deep can the large Dipsy go off steel line? Has anyone ever tried to ad a 1 pound weight to go down deeper ? or is it even possible ? Headed to Oregon on Thursday and the Lakers ( MacKinaw ) are down at 170' any advice would be great, thanks in advance
