  1. If you are using blacks just make sure you give a good amount of twists before inserting the loop in the release to prevent slippage when you tighten down to load rod. As bluegiller suggests, as the ball descends, keep line taught. If you use a Scotty downrigger with manual clutch, descend slowly and don’t freefall. Make sure everything is angled straight out the back, paralleling the down-current direction so things don’t go sideways upon descent. If you are doing all these things now and still getting tangled, I don’t know what to tell you.
  2. Chef Prudhomme’s Magic Salmon or Cabela’s Venison Rub on the meat side. Grill mostly on the skin side, flip once. Two year old spring kings are the best table fare in Lake O.
  3. Are you using pinch pad style releases?
  4. Congrats on a 30 lber! A tall task to hit that tyee mark this year.
  5. Thing slowly trolled but lots of aggravating/ triggering wild action. This time of year they are attracted to skein scent so skein on a j-plug or kwikfish/maglips. Hot’n tots, big lipped stickbaits with upgraded hooks etc etc.
  6. Good bless you jimski ......but man are you prone to rambling lol.
  7. Go to bar. I got a look at the pen pods that are staging off olcott and Wilson -slim pickings. The fish will be stacked more heavily just East of the red can this time of year.
  8. You need to fix my house first!
  9. Cohos and steelhead really miss the emerald shiner days.
  10. There might be some opportunities for immature salmon and steelhead offshore over deep water. Weather is tricky that time of year. You might be better served to book a charter in the next couple of weeks to speed up your learning curve and probably save you money.
  11. Fished Thursday night, Friday and Saturday, and this is the only picture of bait and predators together.
  12. Weidel reminded me YOY alewife and smelt may be on graph as 1.5-2” fish. What size alewives are stomach contents showing when you are cleaning fish Vince?
  13. My eyes were opened this weekend to the insane amount of bait that has appeared. I am concerned about the lack of predators around it.
  14. I think we going to have a winter again. Dark salmon, Monarch Butterflies migrating early, raptors passing thru early, I saw a buck with shed velvet today, and squirrels going nuts in my yard tell me my snowflauge will see action.
  15. Yesterday with East wind blues, fish had lockjaw. I probably had 30 fish come off the bottom to take a look, then drift down. Roll over must have O2 levels low making fish not feeling so good. Done for the year boys. The last two years have treated me to the best salmon fishing I can remember. Strange finishing with a 0 for 1 skunk!
  16. Took three majors in tight last night, one steelhead In mid waters with a few fish lost. Today sucked. On major in tight, one knock off and a laker. Lots of bait but not many hooks. May head to Niagara tomorrow.
  17. Go to Captain John King’s Website. Michiganangler.com

  19. All our families have been touched by cancer. My mother-in-law started her first chemo treatment today.
  20. Nice, great to see the boys involved.
  21. Nice meeting you Thursday night. Looks like you had a successful event that is a wonderful legacy to teach your daughter about the important things in life. BTW the coloration on that Atlantic was incredible!
  22. We need to work on tightening up the team’s picture formation.

    Looks like in the video you are running in brackish saltwater area? What are the hours on the motors? What is the length of the boat? Thanks.
  24. Great event that is growing each year. Thank you Steph, Vince and all those who volunteered their time to make the event the success it is. I would also like to thank NOAA wave forecasters.......for having a sense of humor. See ya all next year!
