Yes No bait . Few fish.

I should add it was a male. If it was a female it would have been real heavy.

Caught this slammer out of Hughes 6/24 ..Silver green spoon 10color...... Fleas showing up. 180FOW .... 24+lbs

Jump in the waters fine.. 607-592-2721 607-592-2721 607-592-2721 607-592-2721 607-592-2721 607-592-2721

Old school and old old school. Ive got a couple in the boat somewhere to. Not for sale but I would trade one for the pirate spoon with like white crystals it has a coarse shinny sandpaper finish.

My first set of these riggers came used on a boat I bought back in the 80s. Parts are real scarce now .I have two more replacement riggers like this in the garage ready to go. These still haul a 12lb ball up from 160ft like nothing.The counters are not real accurate anymore I just dial them in on the depthfinder. The tag on this one says 1985... My math says 37 years old and still going strong. Will definately outlast me. I have one I have cannibalized for parts .It still ran but gears were worn out.. They dont make em like this anymore..

We fished both days. The wind was relentless.. We boated probably around 25 fish. All lakers. Had one on board Sat.8.5 lbs. Had a friend call me Sunday and said if its not 10lbs don't come down to weigh so I did not see final board. I have a cool video of my boat bouncing in the waves but its to large to download... I included a pix of ole wILLIE at the weigh in Sat. Just turned 80. rode the waves for two days.. All fish scraped off the bottom with cowbells.

Thanks for report. Healthy looking fish..Shape like a tuna.. Been fighting the urge with 5 dollar gas but now I gotta go tomorrow.

Thanks for report.

$200 + shipping.........Paypal..... Can ship tomorrow.... Its the Price of a tekota 500LC. There is a pair on Ebay missing some parts $40;00+ shipping. Be sure the mounting bolt in the bottom isn't broke off flush.

I still run the older Big Jon Brutes .from the 80"s. I thought if a fellow LOU guy needed a couple I could part with them. I have 4 extras as Ive been collecting Old brute stuff for years and its scarce. I dont know the value.. PM me a offer.

What you got to trade? These are nice. Looking for a couple good quality linecounter reels.

Congratulations on the win. We fished basically the same water. 12 plus hours both days.. All our fish came scraping the bottom. No lampreys. Nothing big enough.. Got loaded up with weeds twice in the area of high banks in the morning.The bait and fish seemed to be under the weeds. Decided to go back there later in the day and run a 2 rod spread well tended. Weeds were completely gone so was the fish and bait . Maybe next year. All riggers 1 diver fish

It was 1st time fishing at Wilson...Slow morning for the marks we had two low teen salmon in the box.. Later in the day we decided to bounce bottom with cowbells for the lakers we were marking . They werent lakers caught two high teen salmon on cowbells. Counted around 80 boats around us that we could see... Only seen one other boat scoop up a fish. We did not drop any fish.

When your trying to pick out a lure out of the box that works and a salmon hits....Grab that rod!!!! crash!!

tHANK YOU. heading to Wilson Thursday. also 1st timer on west end. We are not in LOC..Want a couple for the smoker.

I forgot to mention all the broke off lost gear... At least for me. .. turning the boat around before getting spooled. Cant get the rod out of the rodholder.

Up 2am drive 3hrs . hit deer twice. fish in 4ftrs all day, drive back,,,, Any more stories?

What size rail do they clamp on?

SOLD

Fly gaff I think its sold I am waiting payment. I will let you know.

Lots of boats fishing the S end today. We got out after 8am still had a fair day. Mix of stickbaits and spoons. most any bright color. short divers ,riggers and top lines all fireing.
