I'm curious as to when the water level usually comes up high enough to launch bigger boats. First spring owning a fishing boat (24 foot trophy hardtop) and itching to get it fishy. Sent from my SM-G930V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
How easy is it to use on a rigger?
How far back from the ball can you see, I know it depends on the depth, but on average when you're trolling.

Well I'm thinking about stacking them on riggers and don't want to get them to close where they tangle

Tried doing a search for this but didn't have very good luck. I'm curious to know the size of circle the different flashers make. Plus does the size of the cirle change if they are trolled behind a DR or dipsey?
Also what's the out distance to down distance with a mag dipsey on the different settings?
Thanks

Thanks John. We went 2 for 6 today with 2 fish breaking the meat rig leader. Not big fish but it was nice getting into a few of them

Front hole for fast trolling. But there are two holes in the rear of the board, those are the ones I'm curious about.

The package on the spin doctor has two holes in the back, one for more action, one for less action. Which hole are most people using? Thanks

I've seen other places on here that you can 1000' of wire on a 30 series reel, end everyone says you wanna have a twili tip on your pole. That's the best I can do, I'm new to trolling

I'm just starting out with trolling and have no gear. Was wondering where the best/cheapest place to buy rods, reels, and the tackle is. Would rather purchase from a store as opposed to buying off Internet, at least enough stuff to get me started.
Also if anyone wants to give me suggestions on what kind and size rods and reels I'd need it would be appreciated.
I'll be fishing lake Ontario and cayuga lake.
Thanks

Thanks guys, I was trying to see how much the permits actually mattered, unless I'm reading this wrong it looks like they really don't matter much (unless in an accident). Opens up my boat choices a bit

So what's the deal with towing boats over 8'6" wide? Like how many people do it and never get bothered? What's the fine if you are caught doing it?
I'm looking to buy a good fishing boat and see quite a few 10' beam boats for sale, but I gotta be able to trailer a boat. I'm half hour from Cayuga, and 2 hours from Lake Ontario. So would fish cayuga often, but would also want to make trips to Ontario.
