This is my first year with cut bait...I get the herring strips from Gagnon sports and so far they have been alright. I know it sais you shouldn't use spin doc's with them but I always use spin doctors on my stuff...flies having a shorter line then spoons and so on... As for size of your spin doctors...i can't see what size you pick being an issue...each one works...fish will bite anything if their hungry enough...try both and see what one works best for you.

Fishing Report Your Name / Boat Name: santana ============== TRIP OVERVIEW ============== Date(s): aug 23 Time on Water: 7:30pm-9:00pm Weather/Temp: clear Wind Speed/Direction: flat Waves: none Surface Temp: 71 Location: Whitby LAT/LONG (GPS Cords): =============== FISHING RESULTS =============== Total Hits: 2 Total Boated: 1 Species Breakdown: 2 chinooks Hot Lure: Dual attomik flies on green/white spin doctor Trolling Speed: 2.8-3.0 mph Down Speed: n/a Boat Depth: 55-65 fow Lure Depth: 35 ==================== SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS ==================== Decided to fish in close tonight as we got out late and there wasn't much time to get out deeper....marked a ton of big hooks and huge schools of baitfish just outside of the entrance. Took a big hit on this dual fly I made up the other day...been working like a charm...fish came off though...then brought in a low 20's chinook on a white fly with black spin doctor. Tomorrow morning should have some nice hooks waiting just outside the lighthouse.

First time on Lake Ontario, looking for advice..
howitzer replied to cussond's topic in Open Lake Discussion
We fish out of whitby so you wont be far from us that weekend....fishing channel is normally 69....tune in and you'll hear some action of people hittin fish. As for depth...it really depends but it's probably safe to say...go from about 120-200 and you'll hit something. for bait fish....we always hit huge schools of bait fish....doesn't make any difference for us...we always catch fish when the screen is clear for the most part. I'd say just go out there and have some fun...hopefully the weather is nice. -

im not in the port credit area but i've been out 6 times in a row and caught 2 browns...thats all...tried all depths....speed is perfect...using flies..lures...everything...just can't seem to hit anything...marking a ton of fish though...and sometimes you can even see them follow the boat....just not biting....no idea whats going on...meanwhile...other people are catching
-
We went out yesturday for 7 hours...6am-1pm....didnt catch or get a bite what so ever....fished infront of whitby...100-150 fow...then went to pickering...100-350fow....covered everything....speed was right...people all around us catching fish....no idea what else to try...starting to get frustrated lol

i would sorta think you'd want them matte black or something....so as light doesnt reflect off the cannon ball...i always thought they scared the fish away from the bait and what not

Why are Lake Trout called chickens?
howitzer replied to Rippin'Line's topic in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?
i love the fight they give you...and they taste awesome...only reason i dont like them is because no one around here does tourneys with them hah -
I dont have one of those underwater probes yet so i was wondering if you guys know the "average" depth i should have my lines down in about 150-250 feet of water to get to the right water temperature...i know it changes and can be different everywhere....kind of looking to get a general idea though....especially infront of the whitby/pickering area.
