Anyone lose a Seth green rig during the derby off high banks? If so, would you like your lures back?

Meyer, do you remember what spoons were on it? Mainline type?

Most likely hemlock Spinners or live bait harness

Yea not the one I grabbed either. Thanks for the reply.

Is it one of mine! Heavy lead, over 50 oz. All tied rig with 3way ( not the usual 3 way swivels ) . All Great Lakes Lures.... Of course.

I did lose 2 rigs dragging bottom.

[Great Lakes Lure Maker]

One of our field testers lost a couple rigs as well his lead would certainly be noticeable. Almost 70 oz. All Great lakes Lures.... I believe he snaps his leaders on, mine are tied and fixed to 3 ways. Pat Polovick is his name. I don't believe he's on this forum, but if it sounds like a match I can have him call you.

[Frogger]

Sorry Jason. Not your lures. I will say the guy that lost em took a great deal of time tying it up.

Sounds like one I lost a couple years back. Is there at least one Sutton on it. About a mile or more north of Sampson. Top bead chain caught on second roller in. My dad just kept reeling and the knot pulled out. Not sure where high banks are.

Jason, it's not pats rig his nephew told me what spoons they lost i believe. There's a magic number here, which is rare for a rig and it's a way I never fished them growing up.

I fish a lot of rigs... 4 is the most I would fish at any one time, but there is a limit! 3 rods per person is the limit. 5 points per rod... I can and do fish 4 rigs and put 10 more rods out with leadcore and copper..having 5 people on board.trollers club rules restrict lures to 20..

To get to your point Nick, I will upload pics of my lead and 3 ways... This would be a determinating factor.. I only fish 5 leaders, and single leader thumped rigs. As far as lure and color, I fished a lot of stuff, no idea.... Magic # has me curious...5 leader is preferred.

[fishhook]

Good find. 5 spoons at $6 each and a $8 weight , I would give you $10 lol

Jason, I fished the three way swivels growing up. Used "boxes" for our leads... layered boards for each leader.

The lures I have are from the derby I'll guarantee it. Also, they are your product. Id be more than happy to get then to their owner.

I love the idea of a lost and found section of discussion....

As far as GL#4's, I have 2000 more ready for paint, polish and assemble, so there should be plenty available soon!

[Great Lakes Lure Maker]

Nick, here are some pics of my rigs and leads. I generally keep 8 on hand, all are exactly the same as you see here. Round weights on the planerboard rigs, long weights for the boat rigs. I have the only molds for these weights, as they are custom made. Note the 3 ways I use. I haven't found anyone else who uses them,and most I know remove and store leaders separate.

[lakebound88]

That's the way we used our three ways. Just didn't take them off the lines

I find its easier and faster to run rigs this way. Personally I have seen and had trouble winding bead chain thru a roller tip. I can put a 5 leader rig in the water and fishing in less than 5 mins.

I'm very curious who owns the rig you have... For several reasons,but of course the fact it was al GLL spoons. So I will offer an incentive. If you find who it belongs to, I will give that person $100 dollars of credit for our lures. Redeemable at 4 locations between Seneca and Cayuga. Those are Catherine Valley Outfitters, Brewers Sporting goods, Fishy Business, and Hook Line and Sinker.

Who ever lost that rig.. Big thank you for your support!
