  1. Try rubbing chap stick on the line before tying the knot, cinches down nice also try using a tripalomar knot Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  2. Nice catch! I'm coming up in 2 weeks can't wait! Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  3. While recently setting up my leadcore I found that tying the Big Game 20lbs test mono to the micro swivel to be difficult, the line is thick and doesn't cinch down as nice as I would like even while lubricating it with saliva. The first few tries you could see some damage to the main line while it was cinching down which I wasn't happy with. I recently saw a tip on one of the WFN fishing shows which was to rub some chap stick on the line before tying the knot. This made a huge difference in cinching the knot down, tight and clean! Can't wait to get out there and try these out.
  4. I have gotten 2 reels setup one with 3 colors the other with four. What is the favored rod for running lead core?

  7. I use a 55 lbs thrust minn kota power drive v2 with ipilot for thesteering on my Starweld 18 pro and using the Yamaha 115 for the trolling. Works great! I wouldn't fish without one now. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  8. I was thinking about setting up a couple of short cores for spring as well, anyone know how much backing I can put on an Okuma Magda pro 30dx for say 3-4 colors? Also has anyone used a loop to loop connection for the backing to core instead of the willis knot so that you can make a quick change in the size of the core? I have 27lbs suffix lead core and 10lb Big Game mono. Thanks

  18. Once the iPilot went on I never wanted to look at the foot pedal again. IPilot Rocks! Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  19. Last week I used my power drive with iPilot while using my yammy 115 to troll. Worked great as long as the wind wasn't too bad. Landed quite a few fish with me and my buddy in the back of the boat while the iPilot kept things running straight. I used the compass direction not the GPS which seemed to work better. Last Thursday it was so windy just couldn't use it. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
