  1. plastic rod holders are not for trout or salmon fishing . i have seen a hard brown hit rip one off the side off the boat . a quality dipsy rod holder like big jon is what you want . i am with sk8man i tether every rod that is in use
  2. you can try a thumper rod down the shute , take a 3 way swivel 1bl weight with a dodger and lure . watch the tip of rod when it starts thumping your speed will be in the ball park .
  3. stick with olcott ideal way better fishing . two riggers and two dipsys will work just fine . run your spoons off the riggers and spin doctors and flies off dipsys . stop at one off the bait shops by the launch they will get a good starting point .
  4. no was green and the frame was all broken up , dumpster food
  5. we fished out a patio umbrella wide open just under the water . told my buddy we just saved some ones lower unit
  6. we fished from deans cove today (sunday) was silver action and a few lakers . most of silvers were shorts but did put a few in cooler for dinner . we used michigan stinger spoons in uv pink , blue and orange down 40 and 50 feet over 120 to 150 ft . fished east side and west . the east side seem to be the best for us
  7. to bad a cat owner does not have to be responsible like a dog owner . cats should be license like a dog . owners let them tear up the neighborhood and the law don't care .if cat owners got fine they sing another tune
  8. was going to ontario but with the north wind we decided to fish from deans cove . set up in 100 fow in front of ramp trolled north . we pick up one laker then trolled to east side and made a south troll , we end up about 3 miles south of long point . it was a steady pick of lakers , land locks and one brown . end up with 16 fish for the day . then it was a bumpy ride back to deans cove . [
  9. went from geneva set on east side , the sonar was filled with marks , hit 3 lakers and then it went dead . the fish was there but had lock jaw . bout 2 hours went by and pick up our 4 th . called it a day by 10:30 to beat the boaters coming in
  10. i chatted with Admiral Byrd real nice guy . going back again tomorrow , plan on getting off before 11 to many boats trying to get in at noon.
  11. showed up at geneva at 5:00 am no one around got boat ready back down to launch boat notices beer case and beer cans in ramp. pick them up and went to throw away in trash can and knew why the cans and empty case were in the ramp trash can over full sure the wind blew stuff around . my buddy showed up and we were off set up on west side sonar blank hit one laker down by roys in 140 ft . we cross to east side found fish from 130 to 170 fow ended up with 6 lakers and one land lock , we used seth greens and one board , the board had a double jointed rapala the seth green had cow bells and gambler spin & glow and michigan stinger spoons
  12. being a weekend warrior you fish when you can long as you can stay safe. that being said a buddy of mine and i show at the ramp water braking over the harbor wall . i said to friend forget it way to rough , come on he goes , ok you be sorry . we made it out beating boat and us set up 15 mins later i look at friend , you dont look so good . i think you know the rest of the story
