    Any suggestion on downrigger rods. I have used the cabelas brand for the past few years and am lless then thrilled. I have two Great Lakes system rods I really like 8fters but they are getting warped from heavy use year after year. Buying some new rods this year and just looking for opinions.

    I did the same thing with my boat last year. Your price is great in my opinion. Wait till everyone gets there taxes back and you'll get a phone call everyday for a few weeks. Good luck.

    That is right on. Have you every fished cassadaga lake. We have done really well there when I was younger and had a 14ft aluminum boat. Caught many Musky and they were relatively easy to catch.

    Larry, Have you caught many Musky in Dunkirk Harbor? I have fished the power plant outlet many times and never caught a musky. This spring I did see two high 30inch musky at my slip in dunkirk harbor which was a first for me.

    Chatter stixs with a half of night crawler works for a lot of erie guys. I have tipped other Sticks but at low speeds I would rather not. The chater stixs even chatter/wobble at 1.5 with half a crawler. It took me a while to start using chatters but I almost always have one out now.

    Well it was a little bumpy so we headed in front of canadaway creek and got a laker in 12ft of water 6ft down on a rigger. Lost several steelies and landed a nice fat brownie and some big old smallies. 35 ft 20ft down was best for steals and browns. It was a good afternoon.

    Thanks for opinions on rods. I do use church boards tx 12 and 22's and I am big board guy converted over. The quickness we can deploy the little boards with lead core setups is much better. We tangle less and use them more especially in short afternoon trips with only a few of us in the boat. We keep track of the backing with line counter reels and we can let a three color and backing with board attached right down the Shute reel in the inner five color so the board is only 30 ft away from boat and swing that board overtop of the five color keeping shallow line on outside. With big boards we had to do a lot of reeling in and reseting to avoid tangles. On Erie for walleyes you can not beat a leadcore program especially early in the year. Later in the year we did catch alot of fish on a 300 copper.

    Hey guys looking for some opinions. About to spend some money on some leadcores. I have been fishing leadcore for years on erie for eyes and have had good success. I kind of have a hodge podge of rods And reels and this winter I would like to setup 2, 3, 5, 7 color rigs all the same. I really like my convector 45's for my ten colors which I have setup with cabelas depth master rods which I am not exactly happy with because of breaks. I troll using church boards and love them. Any opinions on the micro lead core? Opinions on rods would be nice also, right now I run depth master cabelas 8ft nedium action brand and Great Lakes series diawa rods which I like but I believe can not be purchased retail. I believe I want to go with a 7.5 ft rod with a little stiffer action or even a 7 ft rod. Opinions requested, thanks in advance.

    Well went out of dunkirk 90 ft straight out yesterday got 8 in two hrs. Today in the first forty minutes boxed four. Only can run four rods riggers at 68 dipsey 230 back on 2 with braid. The fish are thick. Silvers and Shesps make worm fishin tough but that's what they want.
  13. RD9
    He got 4. Two over 8lb wieght. Off van Buren 10 and 8 color. I went perching out of dunkirk Thursday and Friday good bite north of harbor 65 ft had to move a bunch yesterday to find em. Ill be out in morning might try inside trench in front of towers west. Occasionally late and early season walleye can be on that inside structure on the bottom 65 ft.
  14. RD9

    Is it a spoon bite storm warning? We have one mature, coho, steelie in close also. Got a mature in tight yesterday afternoon also.
  22. RD9
    We are going out tommorrow to olcott. Have the charters boats been mostly running offshore?
  23. RD9
    I don't fish sodus, fish olcott and erie out of dunkirk from may to October and really enjoy the post also. It helps me get distracted from work which is good. Good luck I hope you get the big one. Red eye with green and orange with the silver lighting bolt through it. Or an alpena diamond with white back and pink front with black diamonds.
  24. RD9
    On tip I would suggest is make sure you have few lures with in ten feet of bottom. We have caught alot of walleyes deep 75 ft plus. Spoons off riggers and wire divers. Lots of trout mixed right together with eyes.

    I believe so I will know when I pick it up and get a little better explanation. It was a long process. It was a pretty simple fix he said.
