We have been fishing LO for about Fifteen years. Our yearly trip is the last week of August fishing for Kings.

I retired last year and now we have more time so we're thinking of a spring trip to fish for Browns and Walleye.

Looking for suggestions on which Month April or May would be better.

We fish out of Henderson Harbor so any info would be greatly appreciated.

Never have targeted Browns but have fished Walleyes on Lake Champlain and river back home.

Thanks for any tips

Go to a marine stor and get some " Slimy Grimy. Follow directions. Works great wont hurt metal

Just did my double axle trailer. Couldn't find just the shoes. Bought the Tie Down complete set, backing plate, shoe, cylinders. Best way to go and was easy.  Called the Marina and they wanted $ 300 per axle. Bought parts online and did both axles for $300 including shipping.

I have the 958 c DI and love it.  The down imaging works great and details are very good. Don't have side imaging and don't realy care for it. The plotter or trac plotter is very accurate and easy to use. Very pleased with the 958

The boat came with a 3/4 swim platform. It's made for a kicker. The Garelick bracket is spring loaded so lifting the motor is easy. I use the fishwells in the floor instaed of carrying a cooler. We fill used water bottles and freeze them then just put them in the fishwells. Works pretty good.

2005 Trophy 2352. Love this boat. It's my third Trophy. The only problem I have had with the Karavan trailer is poor tires other than that I trailer about 2000 miles a year and have had no other problems.

I'm glad to see Moore is selling my quick connection for their ST 900. I modified a Klincher connector to make it able to remove the probe. I posted this on Great Lakes Angler back in 2005 and they ran the instructions in thier magazine. I thought this would help others to make thier own setups. I contacted Moor and they told me they had designed this eight years prior. Funny it wasn't available in 05 when I bought my ST 900. As far as the ST 900 I have been very pleased with it and with this connection I have had no problems down to 200 ft. Guess I should have pattened it !!!!!

I mounted mine on the rear port side. I used a Garalick bracket which I set just above the scuppers. I used an aluminum plate on the inside as bracing. Not the best picture but I hope it helps. Mounted on 2005 Trophy 2352.

Good luck

I have a 2005 2352 and love it. Used last two years on Ontario with no problems even in 4 to 5 ftrs. The hard top is a big plus. Marine head and holding tank is great for the wife. Washdown hose is a must. Since the mid to late 90s the Trophy boats have improved emencely. Better quality and more options. I don't think you'll be sorry you bought it.

Bigfoot. Where are you staying in Henderson? I'm coming out on the 23rd and staying at Captains Cove. 24 ft Trophy. If we have 1/2 the year we had last year it will be great.

Hello

Just joined this site. Also a member of GLAngler site. I'm sort of new to Big Lake fishing as I've only been to Lake Ontario three times ( for a week at a time ). Have been fishing out of Henderson Harbor. I'm from Massachussetts so it's quiet a trip out. My boat is a 2005 Trophy 2352 Hardtop. I've set it up from suggestion from others on sites like this one. I've read many interseting posts on this site and hope to learn more ways of fishing better. I'm close to retiring from being a Firefighter / Paramedic and thinking of spending my summers on Lake Ontario. I also fish alot on Lake Champlain in Vt. for Lake Trout and Salmon. My first mate is my best mate for 39 yrs and she can catch fish too!!

Good fishing !!!
