  1. Just used the plugs and wired them 12 volts IMO !
  2. You can also change the prop with less top end with a faster low end ! [ did this with my OMC 70 hp.with better control of trolling speed ]
  3. The monster kings have gone with the arrival of the zebra mussel which changed the ecology of the great lakes IMO !
  4. Not sure why you got the problem but as posted dump the remaining gas ! I only use high octaine [ 91 ] NO ethanol ! As posted you can also add " dry gas " if you feel you must but I do not !
  5. Good point HB2 but what works for one fisherman may not work for another one ! Found that out with my Lymans , only one worked [ Chartruese/black ladder back was hit so many times paint was coming off could not find another in retail the manufacture would only sell a large order ] I sold all the rest for much more than I paid for them !
  6. They both will work ! I start with a slider then change to a stacker if no hits on the slider ; as posted 6 foot length is critical !
  7. Ditto on even manual rigger ! What is your time worth ?
  8. All you need is an Ontario non resident fishing license ! Our Ontario fish quotas may be different than New York State ? esp. Atlantic salmon and rainbow trout !
  9. Never had a mess that bad !
  10. Ditto on the Niagara bar !
  11. Ditto on the zebra coated rocks ?
  12. The drag setting works in combination with the stiffness of the rod ; set too frim risking a break off !
  13. Get at least ONE downrigger [ manuals work just fine ] ; then use Dipsy divers ! [ deep six and pink ladies are a waste of your time on the water ]
  14. ditto for us stay in close until nadda then move out for rainbows and salmon !
  15. We do best August /September large J-Plugs have worked for us at times !
  16. Ditto not the same lure ! What worked last year may not be as hot this year !
  17. He may have seen his reflection in the side of the vehicle ?
  18. Always get a marine weather report & watch the sky !
  19. What color was the Rapala Shadow rap ?
  20. What did you catch it on ?
  21. Ditto on having too separate fuel tanks !
  22. Watch for the Lyme ticks 1
  23. Tangles can ruin your day !
  24. " deep divers " after 35 years have never worked for us but as you post maybe we have not tuned them right ? Run at least one long line but watch for other boats could tangle [ have had it more than once ] ! the problem with long lines is the slack which may not give you a good hookup ? Color rules in the spring ! We always start with chartreuse then mix and match !
