[Yankee Troller]

It's that time of year when things are slow and you're thinking about fishing Lake Ontario, so while you're in your car or hanging at home check out the podcast I did with Great Lakes Fishing Podcast about fishing the Oak.

Down to 125' I will run a 15lb weight, anything deeper I go to a 20lb weight.

I'm running the stock ones, but we are experimenting with the Sam's Pro Release.

Sam's Pro all the way!

Yankee and Dirty Goose great podcasts, well done! tons of information and very cool of you to share so many tactics. Yankee I vote that LO Lake Trout fishing should always be described as “ pile driving” ....too perfect!

 

gill-t has me watching the warmer-than-average fall lake temperatures. looks like maybe  ok weather to make a few Alewife this year.

 

March can’t get here soon enough

Are you guys going to be allowed to run trawls this spring Brian?  

[schreckstoff]

We are all planning on running the survey at this time but there are of course a bunch of unknowns, fingers crossed!

My paper x15 Lowrance graph with some playing around with the controls marked fish down to 250 foot. Most graphs are not tuned to display fish real deep. On a bright sunny blue bird sky day in Lake Ontario the salmon go really deep but often rise up to feed on plankton feeding forage. This was found with attached devices that reported their daily depth changes.

Awesome Rick.  Lots of info there.  I always do the same with regular size spoons on rigger with the same spoon in a mag 10ft above on fixed cheater. Works very well.
