If you like precision answers I would look into buying the fish hawk TD (think that's what it's called) you send it out like a lure and it reads depth and temp. Send it out 200 feet tell it in dead on results. I'm planning on purchasing one

Quick question, when running more than one copper on a side which rod goes where? 400 copper outside, 300 closer to boat? Normally I would run deepest with shorter lead close to boat then high setup long lead on the outside. However with copper deep means longer. Or what about running a long copper up the middle from the roof top rocket launcher?

Not that you can't get Maguiver on this to create the same effect. If you looked at one closely the "rubber" in the middle is thick. If you dipped a swivel in liquid rubber it would not be near as good on the holding power to the main line (nor wood it last as long). I can't remember how much (maybe 4 for $6) better to buy a pack then if you loved the idea make your own.

Personally just tight enough to troll without it creeping. Most times when we change directions or wind picks up my speed I'll notice because I'll hear the drag paying out some line. However if I was using Magda pros or comparable reels I would use a snubber or heavy (50lb) leader. With saltist or tekota reels there sensitive enough where I'm confident with no snubber 40lb leader

My first trolling rig lol........ Dipsy divers, in line sinkers....... If it dragged a spoon under water I was fishing. Spent lots of days fishing the shipping lanes for steelhead in this 16 foot tri hull. You learn a lot when you have no down speed , down temp , riggers.

They work mint. Tried them out Saturday. They sta like a fixed slider ( watch for them as you raise the Rigger up). But they stayed where I set them

Lol. Sometimes if I haven't been out in a while or the lake throws us newbies a curve ball ill use the pack to gauge depth then go ten min opposite direction same relative depth.

I agree on the jerk, took me by surprise the first trip out. I spent next couple trips checking my fiberglass thinking she's going to blow.......... Bought the Amish outfitter snubbers and it's a world of difference. Buy the long ones. It also acts like the auto stop at surface.

I prefer the un beaten path, especially on memorial day weekend. It's a long way to troll to Braddock's from sandy creek and most people only make it 1/2 way there at best. That's where we start the day usually not end the day. I troll a lot of afternoons cause of kids school and I always do better where the boats haven't pounded away all morning. Sometimes you got to leave the pack even though you think there all together because there's a lot of fish under them. Fish get over pressure just like any animal hunted. Also it's the best way to stumble on your own personal hole

Nice job guys. It's always good to see a father son team out on the water , and successful to top it off.

25lb Fluoro to flasher seems light (but if it's working stick with it). Pre rigged flies come with heavier fluoro making your leader the weakest link. Fluoro is no to low stretch which is why instead of snubber most guys choose mono. "Stretches" like a snubber. I just made all my leaders. 40lb big game 6' long for flashes (bigger swivels) , 25lb McCoy mean green 10' long for spoons. Then I make bunch of 10' long 20lb mc coy clear for in line sinkers as a junk line off the planer boards of steelie are up high and hungry. In the end it's all about the drag. If your using Okuma mag pros or budget friendly reels go a little heavy on leaders (drags are consistent) if your using saltist or tekota level reels lighten up. All wrapped up nice on swimming noodles

I get the Michigan stinger product catalog. It is pretty ingenious. I cut a slit in the rubber and you have a fixed. Worst case scenario is you have a free slider. I'm swimming then tonight so I'll be able to see on the sonar of it sits still on my line

Does last night cold front shut the bite down? Deer we will feed hard day before then bed down through the front (that type of theory)

5/30. 3-9 pm. Solid night of fishing. Started a little bumpy but smoothed right out to b gorgeous. We started out in 150 on a north troll trying hard to not catch a laker and get into some silver fish. Riggers at 20 ,40 ,60 . dipsy out 120 and 150 . 200 copper ,and 250 copper. Pretty blank screen all the way to 220 fow taking a king (10lb) on 40 for rigger and a laker on 250 copper. After 1 1/2 hrs we packed up and ran into 130 fow to set up again. We trolled into 115 fow and took multiple kings from 8-12 lbs and couple more Lakers 8-12 lbs. As we slid into 85 feet we took our biggest king of the night 15 lbs and nice steelie at 10 lbs that hit the 200 copper while sending it out, it was only 30 feet behind the boat. I don't know if the spoon was even two foot under water. Quite a show to say the least. Throw in a handful of skippies and we had a good night for two guys on a windy day. Tomorrow's a bust so we'll be back at it Thursday or Friday afternoon.
