To a degree splitting hairs... distance/depth not all FF are equal or work the same, some cannot find the bottom out past 200 fow
My FF display is set to print " marks" in red numbers at their depth/distance from transducer.. it works, I catch fish...
I will have to reread thread, seems like I missed something
I believe my FF is accurate af when it shows fish (depth) on the screen and what depth my rigger balls are running,
FH speed & temp is probably correct, i dont think its depth measurement is accurate.

1st trip fishing Ontario with my boat and 1st trip Evar fishing for King's..
Took 3 kings, 22,20 and a 9, 6 steelhead added to the box also
Started at 29 line fished to the 34..made multiple passes, lake was sloppy..
6 rod setup..
Will post pictures soon..
Tight lines
Wire off the dypsies, a shot of copper ( 300 ft ) off the boards.. I think... I have 4 rods set up with 5 color and will add the 5-6oz snap weight run them off the boards.. Thanks Tomb1
I have a group that has been in my ear for a couple yrs about doing a trip to Lake O for salmon, thought Id ask the guys and gals that fish the lake to help our odds, so Thanks to everyone who has responded...!!! probably has helped a few of the lurkers also..
BTW, if you shop on craigslist, stay away from anyone offering imitation crab meat and model trains...
tight lines my friend..
Yep, when we use to run leadcore we would snap the weight where the braid tied onto the leadcore... We havent run LC in several yrs, S**ts out there a mile, turns are a PITA.
Conditions of the day...exactly... Sea state, lake could blow up on your 1 day charter that you scheduled in july for the end of august... I have my own rig, 2.5 hrs from Wilson, careful eye on the weather and we are there for a couple days..
and who doesnt want to put a King in their own boat...
I will look at running the stack on the riggers, perfect for this time of yr..more lines
Prolly just run shallow stuff off the boards for Steelhead
thanks for the guidance
wife and i adopted/rescued a 8 yo black lab, Shadow.. He was an outside dag his whole life, tuff on the kitties, he is over that now...
B4 that we had rotts, 3 in a row, Bear, Kohl, Drei... enjoy your time with the GSD
I"m looking to fish Ontario/Wilson launch sometime this month weather/Cuomo permitting...

Will Convector 45's with braided steel ( 2 per side ) dypsies be the ticket,,,??
