Hey John I will use your services. I don't know what events have observers anymore, but the ones that do I would hire you for that.

Is it just me or is someone actually stealing the info and reports that are being posted and to be used for this site only, for their own personal Facebook or company?? I've been a long time follower of LOU, and just recently became a member and started commenting and posting. I don't have any social media accounts, or anything like that where I share any info besides here when it comes to fishing. I really enjoy this site and have learned a lot from everyone on here by following along over the years. It was brought to my attention yesterday after a friend of mine saw my post/report from yesterday essentially copy and pasted on someone elses Facebook page (within hours of me posting) with my picture along with some other posts/pics of members from here. It's a shame, because I really do like this page a lot but I will not be posting anything any further if this is going to persist. I'd like to hear what other ppl think and if anything can be done about this.

Was it copied and pasted to a Facebook group or on some ones personal page? There's a page on Facebook that steals/shares my stuff all the time. If they "share" it then it helps my posts get more reach. If they copy and paste it then that isn't helping me at all and it's pretty much stealing.

Downrigger cable is 150lb. Your braid can be 150lb as well. If you go to 200 or 250lb braid then you gain nothing over the cable as far as line diameter is concerned. As for running a probe on braid just be careful with it. Strip off 25' every Spring. The sun will deteriorate braid over time.

Ya, I'd say I've seen that be the case.

Thanks, would this be pretty manageable fishing solo ?

I see no problem fishing this solo, but I've been at this since I was 6yrs old. Everyone's skill level is different. There are plenty of videos out there to show you how to run this set-up.

I'd recommend an Offshore OR12 with a Sam's Pro type Release

I'd also recommend Fat Nancy's in Pulaski.

Do Lakers always stay on bottom? I'm going to pull cowbells and could use some tips on speed also. Thank you

Not this time of year. With all the cold water they will suspend or leave bottom to chase down a meal. This past Sunday we were fishing 60' of water and taking a lot of Lake Trout on 5 and 7 color leadcore setups with spoons.

Anyone else have a problem with sound not working on these videos? Cked my phone and videos on YouTube and the web all work fine as well as Facebook.

Everything seems to be fine on my end. Watched it on this forum and YouTube (phone and PC). 360 views on it and no comments about no volume. I don't know what else to check?

A coho away from batting for the cycle!  Nice report!  Is that your new lucky Uncle Buck moustache?

I switch it up for the wife (even though she hates the Summer and Spring set-up ). Summer typically no facial hair. Fall I'll grow the beard in. Spring I'll rock the moustache.
