    Hi John,

     

    No, she is still at the Oak. Still looking to get her moved.

    Thanks for the information. I like wide spreads to cover more water with boards, dipsyies, one down the shoot and riggers. I am a little surprised, that outside of worm harnesses no one runs flashers. I like hooking a flasher to my rigger ball just as an attractor. We are looking to do a couple charters just to see tactics right on the water. I may check out your website.

    Thanks,

    Shade

    So what I see through research and comments is trolling is either running planner boards, in-line boards, dipsys'  down the shoot with lead core. Downriggers are not the choice. I know that water temp is a key and I also see that to get your baits where walleye are staged you use snap weights. Good stuff but I still want to see how and success trolling with a flutter spoon and a stick bait on a 3 way swivel.

    We are moving our boat from Lake Ontario to Lake Erie. Due to our work schedules we do not get enough time to fish Ontario. Our boat is rigged with all the latest gear,( 3 downriggers, outriggers, Planner boards, electronics).

    We have the right stuff just need some basic information.

     

    I have doing some research and I see articles that show trolling speeds from .8mph - 3.5mph.

    My questions are:

    What speeds do you run worm harnesses vs. stick baits ( deep diver/shallow runners)?

    I have wire, lead core and mono rigs. When running off the boards how far back do you run your mono and lead? How long a leader do you fun from Dipsy to the bait? How much line do set out from rigger ball?

     

    I also saw  articles on running 3 way swivels rigged with flutter spoon and stick bait again there must be a speed window when running this rig. How long a leader do you run off the two sides of the swivel to the bait?

     

    I am not looking for where to go but some help full information on set ups and speeds. Again we have equipment to help find the fish.

    Any help or suggestions would greatly appreciated.

     

    Thank you,
