Fairhaven July 25 and 26th

On the lake around 6:30. Ran out to 100 and set up with spoons, flashers and meat. Meat on both dipseys. Once we hit 120 it was on! Both dipseys were firing at 300 and 320 out on wire. The meat rigs on the riggers took off later at 110 and 100. Did 5 kings in that 120- 150 then it slowed down so we worked out to 180 and picked up a cew more. Went 7 for 7 on kings Saturday. 23 to 15 lbers. Started Sunday in the same and took a nice king on rigger meat at 110. Then we stunk up the morning working the inside. Decided to move out with the fog chasing us and in the afternoon we picked away at the kings out there in the fog all afternoon and ended up with 5 matures and a teenager. Broke off 2 and dropped 2 so we went 6 for 10. All on meat mixed on riggers and wire dipseys at 300-320 all weekend with rigger bites all between 130 and 100. Nothing on f/f or spoons. Great weekend for us on Lumpys Lunkers.

When running meat off the dipseys, do you run a flasher or dodger off the dipsey and then the meat rig or do you run a leader to the meat rig directly from the diseys?

That day we ran a flasher/ meat rig. Do it often and when its working, it works good.

I run flashers with mine. But I have heard guys running meat heads off their down riggers with no flasher. I guess you could on your dipsey rods too.

Always a flasher or spin doc in front of meat rig off dispeys. The main time that you would want to run just a meat head is off the rigger ball and if the kings are right on the bottom. For some reason they seem to like meat better that way
