Dad with Twin boys

Thanks guys for the information, if I were to run spoons I should run them behind the boat and keep the sticks on the planer boards to prevent snags if I understand that correctly

Great picture! If you think of anything that I should do to prepare let me know. I want to be safe and get the boys some fish.

Thank you Chowdaire.

Thanks for the pictures, is that stick bait a Smithwick? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Shark Hunter, is Mexico point a good place to start? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Thanks for letting me know what to use, I am going to try my best in two weeks to catch a couple trout. This trout you catch are much bigger than we have ever caught in our small lakes in my are. I love watching the boys catch fish Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I plan on launching out of Mexico point launch. No, I wouldn’t say I know how to run all of the gear, but this site has been helpful and I thought fishing close to shore for browns would be a good way to get started. What are your thoughts? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Thanks for that information, are those Smithwick colors or spoons Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Thanks for the feedback, this is my first boat and trying to get it set up right has been overwhelming at times and this forum has been extremely helpful. I have two otter boats to run in closer to shore. Do you think 4 riggers would be too busy? I have been thinking about adding two more. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Thanks for the advice. Do you have any lure pattern suggestions? I have a small 1775 Lund with 2 riggers and side planer mast.

I am planning on going out to LO to fish brown trout with my boys the first weekend in April. What are some popular lures to start with. Rapalas, Smithwicks? Any help would be appreciated as this will be our first time.

I am a VERY long ways fishing in a derby, I really just want to fish with my boys and keep them away from many of the things kids do these days like constant video games.

Thank you to everyone for your help

Thank you for the education and time to wright a well thought out response. In my example I am fishing 5-15lb fish. What brand duo snap would you recommend at the stick or spoon and what ring barrel swivel at the Mono or main line?

Thank you for making that easy to understand Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Thanks, I will reach out to a charter for Ontario. This site has a tremendous amount of information and very helpful information. This weekend I did meet with a Captain on Lake Champlain to get a lures to start with. March 28th I am going to the Niagara River for a guided trip with my two boys. It is overwhelming getting started and I thank the many people who are helping me. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Thanks, if I understand this right you are saying to use a Snap without the swivel and tie back to the Mono with a high speed bead swivel like is in this picture.
