  1. 23-25 ft tandem axle trailer. Bunk or roller style. Will pick up wherever.
  2. thats a good price im suprised its still for sale.... how high is the wooden rail from the floor? looks like it would be difficult to net fish at the back
  3. We landed a nice steelie that was tagged with a red probe but before we could get the numbers it flipped outta my hands and back into the lake! Has anyone caught a tagged fish ?
  4. We use laurvick releases and we've never had an issue with them releasing. We have about 600 foot of copper on our okuma clarion and it takes about 3/4 of that to hit bottom in 100 FOW, but the flat fish will start to dig in once you hit bottom and you can see that in the rod tip or you can hold the copper in your hand to feel for bottom (you'll know).
  5. I know the old school copper box and pullin suttons and twin minnows but we run our okuma copper rod set ups off the planner boards . It just drags along the bottom and releases when the fish hits! Works great.
  6. Launched out of Lodi around 6 pm and ran the east side north about 2-3 miles. Set up in 100 FOW and dropped the cannons down 30-50 foot and started picking up some nice browns. SS stingers in chicken wing pattern took the majority. Couple browns were in the 6-7 pound range. We boated 8 lakers with an average of 7-8 pounds. All lakers came on the copper set up. On the fingerlakes we run our copper right on bottom with a 10 foot, 30 pound flouro leader, and a flat fish in the frog pattern. We also remove the treble hooks and replace them with one single hook on the back to avoid zebra mussels. If you haven't tried this technique your mssing out on a serious lake trout set up (but don't tell anyone ) The cotton was terrible so top lines were impossible to run, but we had fish surfacing all around us and schools of bait boiling right out of the water! The HDS-8 was lite up the entire time with massive bait balls and tons of marks in the top 40 foot, along with lakers all over the bottom. Our cannon probe battery died, but the GPS showed our speed at 1.8-2.0, with a surface temp of 64. -Tom
  7. Sorry about the random sentence in there these iPhones have a mind of their own.... Anyways we had an amazing screen all day long in 130-170 FOW, huge arcs and massive bait balls. Steelies hit dream weaver super slims in orange and lakers on cow bells pullin flies
  8. Launch was fine, but fishing was ok. Ran the usual king se up for the firstWhat web site has free tv shows to stream? few hours with nothing. Switched to the steelie program and boated two small ones and lost a couple nicer fish. Finally worked the bottom in 130 FOW and picked two 10 lbs lakers.
  9. I had the worst fish fry of my career at abe's .... first and last time for me
