  1. Got some pike this morning trolling. Didn’t get our first bite till 9:00 then it was nonstop for an hour. Lost a nice tiger 20 feet behind the boat. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  2. Yes, he told me the 400 copper was mine , he wanted nothing to do with that!! Of course that rod was dead so we changed it out with a 10 color. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  3. I have lost 2 fish this year on what I thought were good swivels. I just ordered the dream weaver DS2 swivels based on recommendations on this site. Toughest thing is to figure out how big the swivels are, as most sites do not tell you this key piece of information. Also how easy they are to open/ close. Hopefully I will not be disappointed with these. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  4. Nice mixed bag of fish today. Dipsies with ff did most of the damage, couldn’t keep the Mountain Dew blade in the water. 2 nice steelhead, 1 Atlantic, and several lake trout. Even with a broken elbow my son was able to reel in most of them. Fantastic day to be on the water. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  5. Is the Garmin Echomap compatible with any of the electric trolling motors? Looks like Canon is compatible with hummingbird? Motor Guide with Lowrance? I am getting ready to buy something and have heard a lot of good things about the Garmin. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

  10. I am looking at getting a new set of riggers, and am wondering what the best weights to use are? With all of the currents, etc I am wondering how some of the weight track thru the water. I have always run the round balls with the fin on the back and have had no issues, but would like to go heavier to a 15 pound ball. Any suggestions/ experiences would be appreciated.

  12. Set up at 5:15 in 95 fow. The release on the dr tripped as it was being deployed, started back up with dr to reset what I saw a fish jump at back of boat. Beautiful Atlantic on a meat rig. Teenager on a Ff at 220 fow, couple Lakers on meat rig. On way back in at 100 fow got another Atlantic on meat rig again, carbon copy of first. Fleas and flies were pretty bad today.

  15. Set up in 85 fow, saw a few marks and some bait. Headed north, at 150 fow got a laker on a meat rig; 275 - 325 screen got better, few hooks and some bait. Got a teenager on a ff; small steelie and a shaker on a spoon, and lost 2 more. Temp was down about 65-70 most of the way. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

  20. Straight out. How deep were you? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  21. Set down in 100 fow right on a pod of fish at 5:30. 1st hit before I could get 2nd line in. Mag carbon 14 took 4 more shots, standard size took 1 more. Biggest 2 lost, 1 right behind boat after it got wrapped up in lead core running off planer board, 2nd one stripped off 130 feet of line, jumped 5 times, then line went slack. Fish jumped twice more with my mag carbon 14 in his mouth. Reeled in line and my swivel failed, torn open at the clasp. It was not a cheap swivel, but lesson learned. At 8:00 bite stopped, and wind died. Got almost flat. 3 more light bites, dropped all 3. Mostly downrigger today at 45 down, couple on ten color, one on dipsy which I believe was a laker.
