All times of year. Color, speed is critical, and changes during the season. Blues/silvers work well in spring, then greens in mid summer, then reds/purples in late summer. Not a law ... but generally speaking, and I think the reason the color changes is due to the bait and nature changing from silver to greens over the summer ... and the red/purple is more aggrevating colors at the end of the season to simply get Mr. Salmon upset to strike.

Can you stand back and take the ENTIRE back from starboard to port side. -
Agreed, that is going to be right in the wake of the ponton tube .... it will create a lot of turbulence in that area.
-
Best to show a photo of the entire back of the transom .... not a side shot. What's important is how close it is to hull features, and trim plates.

Special experiences on the water while fishing
TyeeTanic replied to rolmops's topic in Open Lake Discussion
Well, my story is a bit different to yours ... it started with a boat floating without power ... and 3 ladies in bathing suits ... just kidding. But for real, we were out fishing and then I see this floating object ... so we navigate to it ... it's suitcase and it has floating balloons tied to it. I'm like, is this thing full of drugs or cash or something ... we were all confused .... and even worried to a degree. Then we saw the search and rescue air craft above us ... and figured it was a mock mission, and that was what they were looking for. So we moved on our marry way ... OR it might have been a suitcase full a drugs and cash ... not sure. LOL. -
The reality is that this action impacts the Indian's community as much as it impacts you. It is a dis-honor to his fellow community members, who will also suffer from a lack of fish in 3 years from now. What right does he have to do this to his own community members? This is something that should be taken up with the local Indian leaders ... this isn't about (just) us ... and the impact on us, but the impact on everyone, it's nature ... and what right does anyone have to abuse it ... and spoil it for everyone else? -
copper or wire lines
TyeeTanic replied to fishin2's topic in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?
Winner, winner, chicken dinner! THIS, although I'd say 30 lb for flasher ... 40 lb gets thick, and hard to tie a good knot. -
How do you get the "Fishy" taste out of trout?
TyeeTanic replied to Speedy's topic in Fish & Game Recipes
I put it into a ziplock (unfrozen) at least 24h before I want to cook, and add chopped garlic, chopped onion, parsley, olive oil (couple of teaspoons), fish seasoning (of you're liking ... or you can just use salt, black pepper, dill, oregano), squeeze of lemon, a squirt of balsamic vinegar ... and then top it up so the fish is fully submerged with a good white wine (pinot grigio is good). Shake it up to mix the contents and let that baby soak for 24h. I then transfer the fish onto a cedar plank to cook ... and I keep basting with that "broth in the bag" every say 10 min ... especially closer to the end. Once finished, add a few thin slices of butter to melt over the fish and enjoy. -
Agreed. Bogo grip on a rope, as quickly as possible (keep photo time to a minimum ... 1 to 2 shots at most), troll with them hanging off the back. Go back to your normal fishing stuff. Once you see them shaking their heads, release boco grip, and most of the time, if their gills haven't been damaged ... they are good to go. -
I think for a charter captain ... the only way it works is if you love what you are doing. Because you aren't going to get rich being a charter captain.

Braided wire is the way to go ... 30lb, 7 strand is good enough. It cuts through the fleas. You can take your chances with 30lb braid, but there will come a time where it will become unusable due to fleas. Never use mono ... you won't be able to put enough line on the reel (you want minimum 700 ft, preferably 1000 ft). Some days you need to set them deep and you'll have 300 ft out just trolling ... and then a salmon hits and takes another 300 ft. Mono stretches WAY too much, and you won't be able to pop the dipsey if you need to retrieve the line.
-
Early season, leadcore ... 5 color, 8 color. Mid to late season, 300' and 500' copper.
-
Wow, awesome video. Seems like you have it pretty nailed down.
-
B-R-O-W-N for sure. Tail gives it away (atlantic is forked) Too many black spots on gill plate (trout normally only has 2 or 3 on gill plate). Mouth looks like it ends behind eye or close to it (trout has smaller mouth). -
Adding snap weights to copper.
TyeeTanic replied to VooDoo's topic in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?
NOTHING. I used to add drop weights onto my mono line to get some depth for trolling shallow in early season ... 1 oz, 2 oz, 3 oz does nothing to counter the drag ... you need much heavier to do anything ... then it becomes akward trying to hang all that weight on the line ... so the solution is TORPEDO DIVERS. Torpedo Diver – Angling Sports Cuda is 12 oz ... and the profile reducing the drag. You can attach using an OR16 clip (not on the copper ... you'll need to put it on the leader, or on a braid section). If you don't have downspeed and depth (Fishhawk) ... then just attach it all together with tackle but without the hook ... and go out and see where it bottoms out at 2 mph. Start with adding the cuda dive depth to the copper dive depth, and work your way in shallower until you hit bottom.
