Thanks that may be part of my prob I'm guessing leads from the boards and riggers might need to invest in all line counters that way Ill know the exact length and can change the leads to what's producing I usually just try throwing a lil of everything all the time but I'm going to start putting out only what is working thanks a lot I appreciate all the advice can't wait to get back out there and give it another try Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Good point I'm also a little confused on the spoon spread ray was talking about I remeber Yankee a few weeks ago saying u use split shots to get the spoon under and I tried that and saw that it went under but wasn't sure how far from the spoon you were running the split shot 6 ft or 6 in or just whatever gets it down Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Awsome input guys I do a lot of the things you guys are bringing to the table but may be over thinking it as well so I'm gonna print everything I guys said and practice it all over and over again a lot of it make sense ESP hearing it from professionals and about the kicker spoking fish I never thought about that I have a 9.9 johnson 4 stroke so maybe your right sometimes she has to work harder maybe it would be a good ideal to switch over to the big motor but thanks to everyone who threw some info out to me every little bit helps Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Hahaha thanks guys and Matt I'll have to hop aboard with u Somtime still fun catching a few just wouldn't mind going out one morn and doing a lil better Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Hello I'm new to the brown spring fishing and have been trying to get as much time on the water befor may 1 st because I'll be moving back on land to chase some gobblers. I'm just wondering what I may be doing wrong or not doing most nights morning I will only catch 6 to 8 fish and I'm happy when I do that but when I get to the launch or see reports where there catching 40 plus fish I wonder how come I can't get rhat many in the boat I go between 1.8 and 2.3 in and out of the muddy water run 7 rods 2 on riggers 3 to 4 ft down 100 ft back and so on pretty much do what everyone says and does just wondering if there are any tips when u catch a fish do u keep hitting that same spot ? Which is tuff to make turns w all the lines out there I'm happy when i catch a fish and 6 to 8 is great but I'd take 10 to 20 once in a while lol 60 would be great as well thanks for the input Richie Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
