    Thanks guys, looks like I have some better options than the 10's for copper. I'm due to replace my mono segments in between the copper and braid anyhow I'll try both! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    Sk8 I haven't broke a #10 yet but do the 8's feed as well thru the reel I'd like to run something heavier in between my copper and backer? That seems to be the weak link as far as lb ratings go Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    I still use a ball bearing snap for termination Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    I have been using spro size 10 power swivels for four years now without a single failure and can't imagine ever tying knots again! They will run through your rod eyes and onto the reel with no issues. Just my 2 cents. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    I bought a pile of geezers someone had at the niagara show 2 years ago and still can't find them! Someday I'll put them to the test lol! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    It's sure exciting when you see them come running out of the brush with a rack! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    Cisco makes a bracket to mount tracks on the versatrack but it is costly but before I bought that I used the cannon or Scotty $19 plastics and for brackets just buy 2x2 aluminum angle cut it to size 1/4" carriage bolts with wing nuts to mount to your track and done. That's by far the cheapest way to go Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    It's fun with the dogs but they play so much together they run rite past a few! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    If you really want to target them get the cowbells and spin n glows. They make a huge difference. Gambler will hook you up rite! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    I don't speak for everyone but I prefer significantly lighter leaders 15-20lb depending on what rod it's on. Spring is primarily a spoon bite and as others said once the fleas get bad you will want to up your rigger lines. Welcome and best of luck out there! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    Just spoons here, I'm sure someone will start a best flasher fly thread for the season! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    Hey fellas! I look forward to these posts every year. It's fun to see if there's a lakewide trend as well as a starting point for many new anglers. Since no one else started one I'll kick it off! 1: carbon 14 was king all year every trip 2: dw 42nd 3: dirty white boy Honorable mention: lemon ice So what worked for you?!?!?

    Good stuff, and I leaned a new knot! I don't know if I will ever use it but hey knowing is half the battle. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    I just got done playing and yes when I pulled the braid to tight that's what happen. And for whatever reason it's easier for me to go under the braid then over the top and pull straight. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    Honestly I'm not sure but I'll try a few things later and see if I can't help figure it out Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    Eyeslayer I didn't have much tension on the floro with the heavier line. I just tied it a couple more times the trick seems to be having the rite amount of tension on the mainline it has to be loose enough to coil over Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  22. flybuster
    I did it just like this under then over you can see the process good in this one how the floro wraps braid. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  23. flybuster
    Swivel is why I was asking but I just attempted the knot a few times what lb floro are you tying in. I tried with 8lb and struggled went to 17 and it was quite easy maybe try with something heavy for practice Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    May I ask if your trying to leader trolling rods or casting rods? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    I have 10s and 12s and like you said I have no issues cranking I find it easy to say the least. I pour concrete for a living so 15 seconds winding isn't a deal breaker. I also have a teenage son lol. The biggest benefit I see so far is when **** hits the fan and 2-3-4 rods go off I may get back in the water 2-3 minutes faster at best. But then again with that much gear up I'd probably make a aggressive turn and reset on the same line Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
