What distance do you like to run your spin n glow behind the death traps? Same for cowbells?

I should have been more specific, I put on the death trap w/ gambler spin n glow. Hadn’t run a death trap before, just cowbells and paddles Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Tried some late spring Lake Trout fishing yesterday on Lake Erie and knew it would be tough... couldn’t move a rod so decided to try out my new Gambler rig... rigger fired not too long after and we landed our only fish and saved the skunk! Thanks Gambler, great product Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Good point on the old nk 28s, I remember a guy at the marina telling me this. I’ll see if I can pick up some vintage nk-28s on eBay. Interesting the white backs are your go to’s. White backs are underrated Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Very good points, thanks Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

NK 28 orange crush is my #1 steelhead spoon by far!! What other colors are your favorites? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I think I’m going to go with a combination of the different companies in the different sizes as it seems that each shines within these specialties. Moonshine Mags Stinger Stingray Dreamweaver Super Slim Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

When I do a double uni with the lead core sheath, i find that area turns into a huge mess a tangle as it twists very easily and retains a lot of memory. Maybe and Albright would be better even though the knot catching on the guides might get annoying Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

What are your favorite stingray colors? My box doesn’t have enough spoons haha Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Thanks gambler. Would you say mags get bit less often but catch bigger fish? Will you always run a slider or stacker off your riggers? Smaller spoon on top? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I’m working on my spoon collection and picked up this great new box from fish usa... I’m pretty new to the game but seems like a lot of salmon fisherman like the Moonshine or mags and Dreamweaver super slim. Watching various YouTube videos it seems like on Lake Michigan they primary run super slim size with occasional mags. I’ve heard the old saying “match the hatch” to size your baits to the actual bait fish the fish are eating at the time... so I wanted to get the experts comments on what’s been your experience on Lake Ontario with size of spoons (regardless of brands) at different times of the year... Thanks in advance for your comments! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Legacy - are you still using this Berkley clip on line counter? Found this threat very useful, much appreciated! Just need to figure out the best way to measure my line going on the spools without an expensive machine

580 how do you find the microlead handles compared to the stealth core? Can you do a willis knot to your leaders? I can see why the 30% smaller diameter would be helpful on the 10 cores. what size reels do you use for your 10 colors? thank you sir!

glad you've had good luck with the suffix. I think my narrow reels contributed to me having issues. I found that a uni vs. willis made the line more prone to build up twists in that spot as well

Has anyone using Tufline micro also tried Suffix 832 advanced? If so, how does it compare, seems like a similar concept. I was not a fan of the suffix, as it was very kink prone and was going to go back to using the 27lb stealthcore. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Have you guys noticed that running 2 cowbells or death trap rigs off the riggers is too much? Seems like we do better with just one off the rigger which takes a lot of hits and also attracts the fish into the spread. we run pro troll paddles/spin n glows off dipseys and the other rigger Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
