  1. State park is still iced in as well is entire bay through the chute. Couple of guys ice fishing southern end still.
  2. Thanks Vince
  3. Has anyone has experience with the no sand method on a hull that's never been painted ? Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  4. You can do that but make sure you turn off the sonar in the menu tab for the GPS one Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  5. Generally shallow water this time of year between 5' to 12' FOW. Find pockets of warmer water and stained water and it will hold fish. Run sticks and small spoons off boards and shallow riggers
  6. if spoons are hot one day off the rigeers down 1-3 feet just add a small split shot 5-6' above the spoon and send it out on the boards.
  7. X 4 Natural color in semi clear / clear water Bright colors in colored water
  8. Some spoons come standard with rings and others do not. You can run two identical spoons one with a ring and one without to truly see if one out produces the other. Most of the spoons now are made to be more speed tolerant than in the past. I think that the speed is the most important on your spoon program
  9. Out of town for work. Have to present a slide show to my team. Brought the projector into the hotel.....now just need some popcorn
  10. Same here - no snubber. Set drags loose so they click on a turn or big wave. I use 30lb Trilene Big Game mono. Never had a problem. Been running them this way for years
  11. There are called DUOLOCK. Made by Dreamweaver, SPRO, Sampo etc. Make sure you spend the extra couple of bucks on good quality swivels. I've seen guys with top of the line rods, reels, line, lures etc and they get the cheapest swivels they can find and end us losing not only the fish but all the tackle connected to not too.

  12. There are two different types of swivels to use. When you say you are having a hard time getting the swivel through the hole in the spoon I have to guess you are using a coastlock type swivel similar to below For spoons the best swivels to use are the type below
  13. '97 Bayliner Trophy 2352. 350 V8 Main with Yamaha T8 kicker.
  14. Cannon actually made a bracket for this. I am not sure if it is still available or not. i have never used one. http://store.cannondownriggers.com/products/390752/Tilt-Up_Bracket
  15. I have never had the pleasure to meet him but that does not matter. We are all one big family and My thoughts and prayers to him and his family
  16. Definately do the ignition upgrade. You won't be sorry.
  17. Size 16 for shallow water Browns or smallmouth. Size 32 for lakers or larger fish
  18. I run 45# on all my coppers 300', 450' and a 600'. I like them the same so it's easy to remember the dive ratio.
  19. Green top glow bottom for morning / overcast days and green metallic top and chrome bottom for later in day / bright sun for me. Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  20. I have good luck with them using pieces of cut bait. I catch my own bait so I just use leftover chunks. Run behind 11" paddles and long leads work best
  21. Orange Red Pinks all work great. If your fishing offshore for them then generally a little faster speed works best.
  22. As mentioned above just pick your days. Pay close attention to the wind direction and wind forecast. If your fishing the south shore from like fair haven to the oak a small South wind will be best and the lake will be near flat. If it's out of the north / northwest then the waves and chop will be higher.
  23. X 2 Great guy, fantastic work quick turn around Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
