GAMBLER

I started Gambler Rigs to give guys quality fish catching laker gear and to support my fishing habit without taking money out of my 9-5 paycheck (keeps the wife happy). I purchased a Smart Troll 2 system because minor details can make or break a day. Now, the guessing is gone and I can dial my spread in perfectly. I plan on purchasing six probes total. They are pricey but worth the investment IMO.

I already ordered two more probes. Thanks for the offer. You have already been very helpful since I ordered your product. So far it’s been awesome (except losing a probe! 🤣).

About $400!

Fished 70-110 all day and crushed the kings once again. 20-65 down were the most consistent depths. Meat, Hawks Tackle Electric Funeral spoon and a froggy glow stinger stingray were the top producers. Now for the crazy story. We had a diver out 150' with a brand new Smart Troll 2 probe, paddle, meat rig and a fake meat strip on it. We didn't notice the wire was around the tip of the roller rod. A big king hit and immediately cut the wire off losing the entire set up. We watched the depth change as the fish swam away. 3 hours later, the probe started reading again 50' down! We watched for a couple minutes and all the sudden the fish dove to 84' down as we went by!

All 9 kings I cut up Saturday were loaded with alewife of all sizes (2" up to 7"). All were fat and healthy looking. The ones from last year at this time didn't look as healthy.

I saw one dead alewife yesterday while trolling. Nothing like last year at this time.

We have caught 9 skips in two trips so far. They are around.

Probably. When 2 year olds are all we are catching, they are going to get depleted. When a lot of two year olds spawn, that is even less that make it to 3.
