I use 15 sharks and one 20 shark.

Smooth cable has less drag than naked cable. Plus different probe size. I run both and the difference is negotiable. Just an opinion.

Where to buy herring or alwies for meat rigs
Earl28 replied to Henry D's topic in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?
RiggedSFC sells meat. -
If you fish alone and need longer leads consider slide divers. Also use a small spro swivels that will past threw your rod and reel. With this setup you can run long meat rigs and land your fish by yourself. Good luck

13owhunter is correct on all points. Mathrew a representative at torpedo posted this information 5+ years ago. I personal used my new smart troll to test my WS dive performance and it does or did. The most notable issue with the extented line dive is that it is more sensitive to changes in speed and currents.

No I am saying line out of reel. WS on 19 wire will continue to sink. This lets one rod be more versatile.

Upon recommendations last year I added a pair of weighted steel to my program. This year I am running six with two more coming in the future. Shortly the copper may be gone. If you run them with 19 strand wire they will continue to drive at the same rate. 100 ws goes to 200 200 ws goes to 400 300 ws goes to 600 If you use snap weight the bottom the limit. Good luck and tight lines!

Over the years I have occasionally find super size bait schools. (Miles long) I have had limited success fishing these big schools even when there is clearly an active bite. I am interested in a tactics for fishing big schools. Thank you

I have used the DR for 5 years with no problems. I fish with a friend that runs both and the DR is the one that you trust. The DR refresh rate is much faster. I have my unit working down to 175 feet.

All good advice. I am ready to make it happen this year. Last year I fished with 6 new friends. A combination of chemistry and availability are hard to find. Thank you so much for your time and information. A note to anyone that reads this I have a fully equiped boat with Garmin panoptic. I need full and partime team members. We will be in Wilson for the Spring LOC derby. 10 days of fishing is a great primer for a team. If you are in need of a substitute I am retired and ready to fish the south shore of Lake Ontario

Troll into wind or with it?
Earl28 replied to troutman10's topic in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?
The lake currents can be different at various deeps when the lake flips. Please share your thoughts on how you adapt to this. -
