Gambler that is exactly what makes fishing so great many different ways to do things and I'm sure both strategies work.

Gambler, I tend to disagree with you here to some extent. Some of the better tournament fisherman in Michigan have figured out that chrome spin doctors with spin n glos work great at 2.0-2.2 mph for lakers which obviously still allows you to fish kings effectively at that speed. The problem with not putting any laker rods down in a tourney on the first pass or two is your letting the competition pick off the easy hot fish that are biting but more important the fish become spooky as the traffic gets thick. As far as cowbells go imo and only my opinion they have their days but there def not BETTER then dodgers and spin n glos all the time especially after the traffic has got to the fish. The cowbell setup is a close to the downrigger ball setup which is an agressive bite setup guys who would fish kings early and then rely on cowbells off downriggers in my experience would get beat in most scenerios by the guys that are fishing a much more stealthy program for trout

Thankfully it didnt wipe out my tackle store! My daughter Lilly when she was told by her mom what happened said "Great it probably killed all the salmon before the dnr could"

I want to sort of correct my mistake in word choice I didnt mean "mend" as in the sense of the word. The better word to describe my thoughts and experiences is terminate. It is more difficult to terminate then copper. So far it appears to do everything Torpedo says it does and more.... I believe this will be a good product option for many who chose to utilize it.

It was a fantastic time and opportunity for me share some of my experiences with all the attendees. I thought the 3 different approaches charter captain, captain/tourney guy and tourney guy/fun fisherman myself really worked well. The Great Niagara Fishing Expo is a must attend show for any serious salmon/trout fisherman around the Great Lakes. The group next year that teaches the class I am sure will take it to the next level!

Guys we have sold a ton of the weighted steel now and most anglers seem very happy with it. Seems there are two small drawbacks. 1. Shimano Talora copper rods dont like it but all others do.. 2. Its harder to mend then copper Other than those two seems most prefer it over copper. We sell it in the 200,300 ft spools but we also have bulk spools and can load any amount u want.

2017 Buyers Guide Hey guys I wanted to share my 2017 Buyers Guide I put together. I hope you enjoy..... http://www.anglersavenueproshop.com/blog/2017-anglers-avenue-buyers-guide/

King fishing has become tougher than ever in my lifetime the last few seasons. Sparatic is the best term last year one day you could catch 12 kings the next 3 days struggle to catch 2 or 1. It has taken its toll on participation as anglers are struggling to put fish in the box. With that said there are some bright spots last year my home port tourney the Sheboygan Salmon cup took the largest 10 king catch for 2 days in its history. Day two the winners had 95# and change for 5. This has created some excitement around tournament fishing on Lake Michigan

For those of you who follow Tom Allens fishing reports he has talked about a chrome mt dew chip flasher with a white painted back and crush glow tape. It was a homemade job but he had great success with it. We worked with Michigan Stinger to get this blade made and we gave it ready fro you guys. Its available in a combo with an A-tom-mik big fin glow uv fly or just the flasher. http://www.anglersavenueproshop.com/toms-pig-pen-stinger-flasher-big-fin-glow-uv-fly/ Good luck guys
