labor day here and the kids going back to school soon and cooler weather the salmon fishing is nearing the end . another summer gone where the time go ..on the up side the finger lake slivers still going on the perch schooling up and deer season here soon ...see ya on the water some place
i have the same boards they are easy to set up and get fishing but nothing like using a planner board mast and boards . i have had them go under the water when a fish hits too . i made my tx -22 board with the weight in the back so the nose of the board rides high in the water and try to make the line in the release will release when the fish hits so the board floats till it slides down to the fish witch should be on the surface . i have not used them on copper someone else will have chime in . good luck on those big fish...

I would guess it would be how you have the switch wired in the switch in my boat nothing gets past the switch Fish Hawk sonar GPS/ radar a FM stereo electric downriggers ignition system no power gets past the switch so when I turn the switch off the boat is completely dead Sent from my XT1609 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

made your way of the bay and hit the lake to 2 to 3 ft roller with small chop on top from the north west not what i was thinking it was going to be .we set up with spoons , spinys and flies and meat .work water 170 to 250 foot . temp was deep 125 to 130 ft down ran riggers at 125 and 135 , dipsy 325 and 350 . mark bait and marks here and there , seem to be around 100 to 120 foot . we went 2 for 7 .had a bad day netting 2 of them and the others come unbutton .
i went to Screwy Louie's to get the stud fly , should have called first . cause he was out of them and said they go off the shelf as soon as they get them .
