Fish release much easier in cold water. In summer not so much. Lead cores and coppers are designed to kill fish not be sporting--that was my point. People fishing on my boat do not "fight" any plastic devices--they are taught how to properly reel the board to the boat. Like you said--to each his own.

Not for nothing but if you're only interested in "sport" or "the fight" coppers and lead cores shouldn't even be on your boat! There is nothing sporting or enjoyable about either! And you're not releasing fish with them either. They are fish killing devices so don't kid yourself and say you're "in it for the sport"! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

I would rather deal with a 28# king on a long copper off a TX44 than a 20# King off a big board. The attached inline will wear a big fish down quicker than anything. If he happens to sink the board simply free spoil your reel until it pops back up and then reel in your wore out fish. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Inline boards and coppers and cores go hand in hand. There is a learning curve to be had in playing a fish with them but, in my opinion, there isn't a better way to run multiple coppers or cores. You won't see ANY charter captains in Michigan running big boards--they ALL run inlines. Hookups are better and, once you get the hang of fighting fish on them, the landing ratio is FAR Better.

Both work great and each have their own merits. That said, I do have to give major props to the new trebles being sold by torpedo. Amazingly durable and frighteningly sharp!! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Leadcores will work just fine with the church walleye boards. TX44's are the big ones and not needed for core. Trust me, if you're salmon fishing on Lake Ontario you DO NOT need a flag to tell when you have a bite! 😀 Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

If your inline were to catch a wave while trolling into them and dive or a big king buries your board simply free spool it while keeping light tension on it with your thumb. When the board pops up simply flatten your rod parallel to the water, or lower, and reel. No pumping! When a board does submerge the LAST thing you do is try to pull on it!

If your wire broke "because of a knot" you tied it wrong. Crimps are FAR more likely to break than a properly tied/executed overhand loop knot. In 25 years of running wire dipseys using overhand loop knots I have never had a knot break. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

60 degrees is the magic number. When you find large expanses of 60 degree water the fleas will start to show up. As it warms they will concentrate in the 60 degree level. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Lmao and then try to crowd YOU into the ledge just because they have boards out. Side cutters are now a permanent fixture in the back of my boat! Watch for floating boards! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

And how much have you/ will you spend in fuel learning by trial and error? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Courtesy? What is this "courtesy" you speak of? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Here's the answer I just gave another gentleman with the same problem. Instead of burning fuel trying to blunder into a fish by accident you should simply take a charter to see how it's done. Several of us on here offer on the water seminars that would be invaluable to you and shorten your learning curve immensely. You could spend the next ten years on here and on your own trying to catch a fish or, for around $650, you could see how it's done directly from a pro and start catching fish today. We are having one of the best springs in years---there is no better time to learn than right now. PM me and I'll tell you about the seminar package I offer and what you need to do. (My gift bags are usually pretty good too 😃) *shameless plug* Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
