Before you make a decision and a purchase I think it would be important to decide what depths you hoping to fish with your setups? Im an Okuma guy. So my setups are Okuma Clarion CLR553LS w/ Okuma Classic Pro GLT copper rods (cp-cl-862m). In my opinion, the best copper setup out there. http://www.okumafishing.com/product/view/reels/star-drag-reels/clarion http://www.okumafishing.com/product/view/rods/salmon-steelhead/classic-pro-glt Blood Run 45# copper, 50# braid backing, and fluorocarbon leader is a perfect Lake Ontario setup. http://www.bloodruntackle.com/ Otters are really nice but your boards will do just fine. And definitely run boards. They will give you a chance to run multiple setups and get them away from the boat (out of the way and out of trouble).

Welcome to the site!

Actually twice this past deer season. I startled a couple of dogs walking to my tree stand one morning. they circled behind and followed me to my stand in the dark. A week prior to that i had 7-9 coyotes come out of the thicket right at dusk, and about 25 yards from my stand played host to a violent royal rumble. The dog fight went off and on for 5 minutes or so. I couldnt see much of what was happening but there was plenty of growling and snarling. After it ended the dogs split in all directions in the woods. It made for an loooooooong walk out of the woods.

Damn grouse!!!

Youll be happy with Okuma for sure. Convectors are a great choice for the money. If your looking for a reel for wire then look in the 30s size.

too funny!
