  1. I had the best luck in 120-160. In low light conditions. 2.0 sog
  2. I fished out there Sunday evening. We went 1-5 on kings. Only landed a juvenile. The other fish were all majors. They would scream out some line....then just come un-buttoned. I fought one on a 500 copper to about 50 ft of copper left and he jumped and gone. That was with a double treble on a cut-bait rig. Most hits on the meat. But Hammertime got pummeled on the wire!
  3. Splice 30-50 lbs mono or floro with the big boards. I had many false releases on the braid.
  4. My elite 5 dsi has been flawless. Although I probably only use about 20% of the features. I bought the "gold" version with Navionics chip. Chart plotter is fine. I did suffer with the learning curve to operate everything for a month or so. The manual is useless.
  5. Go west (or SW)!! Deploy gear in 80 fow and troll deeper!!
  6. Just ordered some buggspray. I hope it works! I almost fell on my arse a couple times from dish soap on the deck. And my ankles are still raw from Sunday.
  7. I always have one in the water!
  8. I fished out of Oz last evening. Marked nothing and no bites till 7:30...then did a laker, a coho and 2 majors in an hour or so. 100-200 fow.
  9. I caught 2 Kings between 7:30-9:00 PM yesterday.
  10. It depends on how deep you want to fish. I like running the 01 with a ring but they are only rated to run to 50 ft deep. I believe (running wire) they get me down to 60-75. The Mag's with a ring run to 100.
  11. My tow line is 9.5 on the front and 12.5 rear. Offset the front hole for the double-keel: 1 1/8 inch to the left for the left board. And then 1 1/8 inch to the right for the right board. Lower the string holes 3/4 inch. They pull like mules!
  12. Those washers on the inside are blanks from newspaper bundles.
  13. 12 lbs sharks go almost straight down in calmer seas. Trout mans 12 lbs torpedos get the job done for half the price. I run 2.5 to 3.0 sog mostly.
