  2. Dude - that's absolutely fantastic!! About 5-6 years ago I saw a guy land a 6-7## brown on the Webster Pier using the same Barbie rod.......... Great job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing, Chris
  3. Great job boys! Congrats on the LOC fish and placing top three in the shootout!!!!! You guys are a class act!!! Chris
  4. Face the front of your boat. Left side is port and right side is starboard. When facing front of boat, use left dipsy settings for the rod on the left ( port) side of the boat and right dipsy settings for the right ( starboard) Rod. Now you know why starboard and Port is used on a boat instead of right and left. Idiots making dipsies should have used starboard and port and not left and right.....
  5. I agree with Justtracy... Muskie - maybe I'm misunderstanding your post, but it's completely legal to transport certified Alewives (i.e Familiar Bite products) in NY if I'm not mistaken? Am I missing something? Please clarify - thanks, Chris

  8. Only spot on the whole lake biting right now......and I mean good.....is 77.29.410756849392 W by 43.38.576839230400 N........ Oh, shoot, wait....um, darn it, the salmon just ate an alewife right at this moment at this spot and it cooled off. I'm sorry, I can't help you any more
  9. Superb deer - great pics my man!! Thanks for sharing, Chris
  10. I completely disagree with abandoning the spoons. Why would you ever stop running something that's catching silver fish? Do what Tim says above. Run your baits deeper. Also running meat on a deep rigger in the ice cold water 42-48 degrees can work well for bigger chinook. Spoons work all day long and from spring to fall Mix in flashers and flies though but I wouldn't run just one spoon for sake of just catching bigger fish Good luck
  11. Wow....that dude must have nads the size of cantaloupes
  12. I really must thank you for taking the time producing your live posts, with pics and great video!! Really , really awesome when I can't be on the water. Cheers bud, Chris
  13. Fantastic job bud!!! Keep the great reports coming, Chris
  14. Superb report Tomy and no surprise that you had a great day given that you were fishing with a superb captain. Thanks for the awesome report - congrats to you and your crew. WTG boys!!!! Chris
  15. I have a 27# king I boated solo the second year I owned my boat. Aftera 45 minute fiasco of everything behind my boat being tangled and a battle of two wills, I landed him after he hit a free slider on one of my riggers. I jumped up and down, swore a million times, played air guitar, you name it after he hit the deck. He now resides on my wall.......I remember it like it was yesterday. Nothing like those solo battles my friend..... keep at it Good luck, Chris
  16. That top loop, like I said in my earlier post, being 5 degrees off from the fin is turning your weight into a Dipsy Diver (similar to when you adjust the center of gravity by turning the weight dial).
  17. Check that the top eye loop is parallel with the back fin. If it is off set, it will not run true
  18. Go out and first and foremost have fun. Don't overthink your program and don't beat yourself up when you lose a fish (to me this is the most heartbreaking thing when fishing a tourney and seems to generate the most anxiety). 1.) Sharpen your hooks 2.) Check all leaders, knots, etc for any wear and tear 3.) Put out your best spread early 4.) Pay attention to little things like speed, depth, direction of troll and don't forget to make a mental note of these things when a fish hits (often you'll forget to do these things b/c you're focused on landing the fish and then you'll be asking yourself questions later.) 5.) Use meat - it often will catch a big boy 6.) Have fun, have fun, have fun Good luck, Chris
  19. Hey brother Anthony, It was a blast being back on the water and thanks so much for heading out despite your Achilles issue earlier in the year!! Anthony always knows where to find the fish, despite the weather and not so ideal conditions. We always have a great time and it was so great to be back on the big lake. Thanks again bud for some great laughs and a few fish to boot........ Chris
