should everyone be fishing copper... yes. If you have or already fish leadcore then you will realize the similarities quickly. Copper gives you an opportunity to fish a flasher/fly in a " leadcore like" pattern. Will you get tangles? Im sure but i almost always fish a chute rod. weather its leadcore or copper and tangles are rare. i would easily sacrifice one or even two of your rigger rods for coppers. 2 riggers, 2 coppers, 2 divers = more kings in the boat! Simply put if your king fishing then your need to have copper in the water. 300' copper would be a great place to start. FYI your Daiwa 47 will fit 200' of copper with braid backer. Okuma makes a great copper rod https://www.okumafishing.com/product/vi ... nvector-gl

Good stuff!

An okuma 45 is a little big for wire dipsey. An Okuma 30 is perfect with 1000- 1250' of wire.

What a difference a week makes? That tough transition phase bite seems to have Sandy Creek in its grip. Sat AM Great screen 60- 140 fow. Plenty of hooks to fish and an amazing amount of bait everywhere you turn. We have been wondering all year where all the bait has been well, the wind on friday blew it all off the beach and out to deeper water and it was everywhere. I mean everywhere. Tough to compete with all that bait around? Not sure but either way tough bite out there. 8 bites total for us all morning with 7 to the net. Mix of steelhead and lakers sharing the same waters. We pounded the water with flasher/ flies early and had some luck with both a 200 diver pulling a Green Halo spinny and halo fly and a 450 copper pulling a Capt valium spinny and green killer fly. But today all these fish wanted were spoons. Halo, mixed veggie, Hammer, to name a few. Riggers and 10 color leadcore were the winners today. Monday AM Sat down in 40 fow with plans to fish Brownies. Surface temp 57 and bottom temp 51 degrees. Pulled a few little kings in 50-55 fow in the first hour or so and slowly pulled out. The bait had almost disappeared entirely next to what we saw on Saturday. We spent the majority of the day 80-100 fow targeting the zooming fish that were 20-40' off the bottom. 13 total bites for us with little Kings and Lake Trout dominating the day. These fish only wanted DW SS spoons and so as the day would prove, every bite came from a super slim. super glow, halo, mixed veggie, moon cricket, and a few others. 10 color leadcores, deep divers 150-200, and deep riggers took all of our fish.
