Rippin'Line

That may explain why there are always rubber bands near the dipsy counters at places like gander mountain and bass pro.

That is the sweestest fishing videos I have EVER seen. I want one!!!

I tried the nylon just for the hell of it thursday and didnt mind it. But going to spool the wire onto them anyways. Besides the wire is about half the diameter and should be alot more subtle than this thick braid type stuff.

Fished early morn thursday. Marked alot of fish in the 40 to 60 ft range sittingin the thermocline over 80 to 90 ft of water. Didnt mark anything near the surface. Water was between 47 and 48 degrees at the surface. I dont know how the LL salmon react this time of year but ive caught them when fishing deep for lakers on the random rod i always set out on an inclne planar with a black and silver 4 inch rapala. Also over summer the thermocline raises to between 20 and 30 ft down. if you got some deep diving cranks and stick like deep thuindersticks and walleye reef runners no bigger than 6 inches you should be able to find some if you dont want to use downriggers. Only managed 2 fish yesterday. Both lakers, nothing impressive.

Im hoping to be there by daylight. Just wondering if ill be seeing any on you small boat trollers out there? I've got trout fever!

Godd call guys. Thanks

So if say you catch a trout in canandaiguia you have to drive all the way to trumansberg to waigh it in?

I received some dispy rods from my grandfather recently and instead of wire it had nylon line. I bought some 30 lb wire for them but ive never even seen this before. Thought it was braid at first. He says he used Dipsys with them. Anyone use this before with dipsys?

OMG I feel stupid. Im Registering for this!!!

They should do an all finger lake tourney! That would be awesome. Set weigh in checks at all of the major lakes!

That first picture is frickin sick!

What Lake?

Nice i saw you. And yes we launched out of the south. Just picked up a new depthfinder sunday. Next time im out there will be probably tuesday. Later in the day though. Have a concert monday night and wont be home til about 2.

#1 may be an atlantic. Has that pointy head.

Trolled the southern half of hemlock on the west bank zig zagging between 20 and 60 ft of water pulling spin docotr fly combos and spoons off the riggers, and sticks off the boards. We weret trying to find some more brown and bow action like the week before. Unfortunately my depth finder started saying we were in 160 ft of water(the lake maxes around 96) and 1 ft of water in about 5 feet. The plan was to try to find some action in shallower then headout deep for lakers. Without a depth finder however im not about to go balls deep and lose em. Besides it was red skies that morning and im not takign any chances. (Red skies in morning sailors take warning). Anyways we lost 2 about 50 ft behind the boat and had another snap the floro leader within about 10 sec of being hooked. Hot spoon was s stinger scorpion off one rigger in tangerine and a 4 inch rap off the boards. Overall a dissapointing morning fishing but a great day to be out on one of the last undeveloped lakes to enjoy the scenery. However I shall have my revenge on the fish this coming up tuesday. Tight lines everyone.

Both canadice and hemlock

Noy really consistantly. There more of a bonus fish because we generally dont target them.

Picking up your speed as well as fishing the thermocline which varies between 20 and 30 foot down gives you the best chance at browns and bows. slower is still better for lakers. The average laker in canadice is about half the size of the average laker in hemlock. However the average brown in canadice doubles that in hemlock. Its a matter of preference. Also just figuring out the fish and what they want. Suttons work great off of riggers as do flasher/fly combos. I also like running dipsey divers off the sides with a four inch blue or silver n black rapala to pick fish up. If you want salmon flat lineing a stickbait or spoon can be deadly at times too.

Do you guys use a depth finder? If so I stay about 5 to 10 ft off bottom. Nice to see someone pulling trout out of there. Im more of a hemlock guy but when I go there and ask around everyone usually says they got skunked. Have you been picking up anything besides lakers?
