Lakers from olcott

[billybob7059]

Coming up this weekend 12-14 hoping to find out what depth and direction to start to probing for lake trout.

Also what speed is better for lakers? I see most the salmon guys flying around at 2.5- 3.1 But I have found on the internet something closer to 1.9-2.2 , goin to try the bounce bounce bang method with a lake troll and spin n glow.

thanks for the help hope to give a great report on monday!!!

For speed, 0.70 - 1.8 work for me. 1.3 seems to be te magic number. I look past the area where the thermalcline intersects the bottom out to 200 fow. I'm not fishing Olcott area but have caught lakers on the bottom out to 220 FOW.
