  2. Where abouts is this launch??? I tried searching bald eagle creek and couldnt find it. Id like to get that deep
  3. from my experience so far GREEN color are the way to go.... i have had watermelon, wonderbread glow, a plain orange spoon, tried body baits in various colors and natural looking colors, and flies behind a spin doctor and so far ONLY the green spoon and the green flies have been hit. even with lake trout the green spoon has been slaying them. so far have had 10 hits, once was the fly and all 9 others were the spoon pictured below normally orange spoon catches me coho's and watermelon slays the rainbow trout
  4. for anyone who hasnt come to the canadian side and visted toronto island, i highly recommend it! i always love going on a nice evening as the sunsets can be mesmerizing with the CN tower and skydone in back ground and when its all lit up at night and with the action along the shoreline is just incredible. all in all we went 3 for 6 that day, boated 2 lakers and a wicked hard fighting king salmon that weighed in at 18 pounds. i have caught a 30 pound king salmon that had 1 hard run and that was all, the one we got that weekend fought and fought HARD, we got it to the boat twice and it ripped over 100 feet of line off the reel screaming back out!!! 20 pound test line over 20 minutes into the fight we landed it! hope you enjoy the pictures!! and NO no editing was done the sunset saturday evening was just incredible
  5. i am interested as well, i am wanting to target lakers for my first time this year!
  6. would help to know the shape and dimensions of it. there are lots of different brackets. you have a picture and measurements of it?
  7. at the minimum unscrew ALL block and manifold drains and drain water!!! also make sure your power steering cooler is also dry!!
  8. what did you hate about it???? i just got a helix 5 a few months ago, have not used it and now you worry me lol
  9. review the wire gauge table in this following link https://www.hotrodhotline.com/grounding-electrical-systems#.VvRqeuIrLIV
  10. nice, browns are something i havent caught yet.... are summer time browns able to be caught??
  11. damn you beat me by like a second lol
  12. thats a jack crevalle!!! still a very hard fighting fish!!! i agree salt water life is so much nicer but hey we cant complain, for freshwater fishing i think we have it the best in the world!!
  13. for some reason i have always had much better luck using braid. i never had any issues with the fleas clinging onto the line excet maybe once - maybe im just lucky. i have always had way better hook sets too and i never used a shock cord. i ran 20lb braid all the way to the divers and then 20lb fluoro 7 foot section from diver to lure, i have had great success with it and landing 95% of my catch. i really like with braid to that when you wan to reel your diver back in you just yank the rod to trip the divers mechanism and reel it back in meanwhile with mono there is so much stretch the mechanism never wants to trip until i have reeled it in halfway to the boat
  14. it is so sad to lose people to this terrible disease. i lost a friend in august to cancer, my grandpa passed this past christmas day to cancer and my uncle is currently battling it. i did not know ray but his family has my condolences
