So what you are saying is that, alot of that bottom action that I saw was maybe sheepshead. I had about 4 or 5 releases from riggers on the bottom that were nothing, sheephead perhaps?

You know I was right next to you on more than 1 occasion (blue open bow) and all we got was 1 spit hook on the rigger down low, 1 big one that mangled my blue fly(dipsey, spin dr, down 50ft)that got away while going west, and a whole lot of action on the sonar.
We trolled 2.5 to 3.5 east, west, north, and south. I am a rookie so there is alot to learn.
I recognized your boat and the big guy with the beard.
We were thinking that my balls were not big enough! I have 10lbers and rigger line was not going straight down, but somewhere at a 45 angle so I didn't really have control of my depth other that lowering until I dragged bottom and then adjusted from there. How heavy of rigger weights do you guys use?

Thanks for the info.

Does anyone know if there is a formula to select the size of a trolling motor?
I have a 19ft open bow fiberglass fish/ski and was thinking about buying a small outboard. How many horses do I need?

Fished from 7-1 and got 5 lakers9 (all 8-14lbs). All in the 65-75 ft range, on the bottom, and all of them with the same black and purple with eye spoon. For me and my crew it was a very good 1st day of 09, hope the rest of the year goes as well. Couldn't have done it without you guys, Thank You!!!!!

The info you gave me paid off. Two of my friends and I went to Olcott Sat. 4-25 because of the mud coming out of the river. We had a good day by our standards. We got 5 lakers all on the same black and purple spoon with the green eye. I don't know who makes the spoon because I bought it used in a bulk lot, but it worked !

Thank you very much for the info!

My friends and I want to go to the bar 4-26.
Any advice: downriggers, leadcore, dipseys, longlining down the chute, depth, colors, spoons?
Please let me know.
Thanks,
Bill

Hello,everybody,
I am new to LO fishing and want to do it right, and that is why I have come to this website.
I need all the advice I can get. I have a 19 ft open bow that I use for fishing and taking the teenagers tubing. I think I like tubing more than any of those texters.
I have not named my boat yet,but I thought strongly about naming it after my good friend's kid who who had a fatal accident while riding a snowmobile. 18 years old, a tragedy!
His name was John Kacz and I was thinking of "Special K" with his prom pic cartooned!
Anybody got any ideas?
Thanks,
Bill
