7/21 Beautiful afternoon to be on the water. Left work early to go on a father son outing right outside Irondequoit bay. Started out with 2 mag dipsys on line counter reels with 20lbs power pro flasher and fly set up. On the riggers we worked a 30ft leader of flouracarbon with just a spoon, down 60 to 80. Started in shallow hit a nice steelhead in 110fow down 70ft on a dark green spoon with green dots. Headed out deeper to 200fow with no results. Turned east to head back into shallow water my dad got board and wanted to catch a laker so we lowered the ball to 115ft and within a minute caught a nice one. By this time the wind picked up and had a slight chop charted nice arks from 50 to 80 over 110fow that's when we picked up our second steelhead on the green spoon with green dots down 60 over 115fow. Lost one on the dipsy/spoon combo, lost another one the rigger. Picked up a small salmon about 17 inches on a orange stinger. Overall all fish caught on spoons / flasher spoon dark green was the color fish all around 100fow down 60 to 80. Now to the bad I lost an entire pole after my rod holder broke!!!! Had a line counter reel with trolling rod, mag dipsy set up with a flasher and my favorite spoon. Those mag dipsys pull hard at 3.0mph I had my rod holder angled (bad idea) and I guess it was too much. I wonder if anyone else has had this happen to them? I hope I am using these dipsys right , the tension is set so strong on my release because of the drag I only use 20lbs test. Hope to get out this weekend for some more fun and this time not lose any gear this stuff ain't cheap! Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Cowbells say 1.8 is max speed ever do more?Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Just mount transducers correctly. It can be difficult set up when dealing with other signals just youtube it or read directions. Good luck.Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Wow at least some action! Demoralizing after losing a few fish but I'm happy you stuck it out for a good report. What pound test you using? Also how far of a lead? Next time I'm sure you'll be ready takes ya off guard with it being so quiet lately. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Still available? Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Hahaha yeah my home made board. It works well I didnt want to drill holes into my boat, my bayliner wasn't designed for trolling but I have to work with what I have. One day I'm getting a better boat with lots of room.Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
