    Questions Last summer I would get a hard thermocline at 40 ft that my hummingbird 1197 would pick up said 60 deg. At the time the place to be was 75 ft. But I kept graphing fish at 40 to 45 ft. I set once there but no bites. Could they been salmon or trout?

    First year figuring things out almost ready for a bigger boat! Tough with a bass boat and a 250hp and no fishhawk.

    I'm still getting use to fishing without a probe its hard because current and wind getting use to reading dipsy rods. Downriggers make two noises clicking and singing once I hit 3mph the drags on dipsy start to click and cables stop singing. Tryed angle I use 10lb fish so angle is different at depth. I'm learning love it because it's different and frustrating.

    I can say I had a great time its frustrating and exsiting. I'm me made 5 trips I fish out of bass boat. I pick my weekends. Been teaching myself. Picking up bit and pieces from this site. After first 2 day trip I got 3 browns and lost 2 kings I was hooked. Got my sister going now helps allot with steering and she loves it. Second trip caught 4 kings first day lost three. Day two caught 1 lost 1 got blown off by 11. Same for most trips wind is a pain I know what my boat can handle but scares my sister so I play nice. Last trip this weekend we worked hard put allot of time in caught 4 lost 4 sat caught 1 lost 4 on sunday and caught a brown,couldn't figure out why just come unhooked one straighten a hook other broke the leader on the fly. Yes would I like to go out and catch fish every time yes I spent a poop load of money motels, rods, tackle,gas,down riggers. Now I'm looking at another boat for lake o. But I have great electronics on my boat sister autopilot.I still want more.I enjoy the challenge of the fish and the lake trying to kick me off! And any second a downrigger rod will go off or dipsey rod can start screaming!!# that's why we all go!

    Headed home great weekend for the fishing out of the ranger! 4 for 8 on kings 1 brown. All ff no meat or spoon bites. Still figuring out the speed without a probe. What worked yesterday was different today kept a eye on other boats and stayed there speed. Some were going warp speed east so I pulled my bags was 2.5 and seemed like I was going over 3 by cable and dipseys pulling drag. Put one bag out caught a fish.
