  1. Matt;

    Yes you can run behind a spiny or flasher, 11 inch flasher is my personnel favorite. I also run them clean off the rigger. The bait head does not have to match flasher. There is no advantage or disadvantage between the two baits hole or strips, energy dog has its days.

    Put a slight bend in the bait to get the slow roll. I also run them without a bend.

    I like to run it as my deepest set away( 41 degree water temp *ish) from the other lures. Have caught big salmon out of temp also.

    These Baits just catch fish period and usually my biggest.

  2. Hi Mark;

    Welcome to the board and the professional side !!

    Early morning or late in evening is when they are most active on I-Bay. I did catch ONE mid day once fishing for bass. :rain:

    Did you try the area near the blow boat club, there is a few drop offs over in that area with some nice weed beds that coincide with steep drops.

    After we were done for the day we headed to B&E tackle in Ontario to weigh in fish only to find out they were closed, 3pm on a sunday!! . We did not feel like making the trip to another weigh in. The Salmon will not hold up until the end of the derby anyways.

  4. I have heard this rumor also. If it's true then it is excellent news!!

    Matthew it is no rumor. I fished them during the Niagara Pro-Am and Orleans. The produced the 2nd largest Salmon I caught on Niagara big fish friday 26 pounds and some change. They also were a hot item in our spread all four days. I heard Narbys in Oak Orchard may have them in stock. One shipment arrived last weekend but it sold out fast. Sharon at Narbys should be getting more in REEL soon.

    I mainly used them in Rhys Davis heads, Familiar Bite Sushi Flys and Twinkie style rigs.

    GOOD STUFF!!!!
