There are 4 riggers on the boat. I was told that some days the fish dont like the riggers. Whats the best spread to start out each day? riggers and dipsy? and if the dipsy are hitting get the coppers out?
-
O no....I never thought of having more than one of the same copper. That makes all the sense in the world though. A man once told me that they had over 20 copper rods. I thought they were like 300, 325, 350, 375 and so on. But now I understand I need to take another loan out and buy stock in copper rods. WOW!

Is it possible and to run 3 coppers and 4 dipsys? I have a 400, 450, and 500 copper. 2 10-6 and 2 8 foot dipsys. I was thinking 400 and 450 on the planer boards. The 500 down the middle. The 10'-6" at a 3 setting on a size 1 dipsy. And the 8" at a 1.5 setting on a mag dipsy. So that's my master plan. I only have to wait till april to try it. This will be my first year on lake O with my own boat and last year was my first year that I got into fishing it a lot. I do understand if the fish are in 40 foot of water that my coppers will be no good. If someone can point me in the correct direction. ie, that is a good idea or you are stupid for thinking that. I need to get the most bang for my buck..........................................................................im going nuts i just want to fish!

You might be able to see what I am talking about. I have one of these rigs in my hand now and don't seem to rattle. Just the rubber tube and a solid ball. It seems to hold the stinger hook in position and makes the fly set nicely on the rig. Do they sell these apparatuses separately or if not do I just put another bead there to hold fly from hitting my stinger hook.

I have been tying my own fly rigs. I would like to know if the rubber tube that holds the stinger hook in position is a crucial part to the rig set up. The "ATOMIK FLY" rig has it on them. If anyone knows what they are I am wondering how to make my own. Thanks!

The releases I'm going to go with are the scotty power grips. They have a 18" lead or a 60" lead. what does the longer lead do?
-
In the market for buying some releases. What is better a short leash of 8" or a long leash of 60"?
-
What and where is the LOTSA flea. I already purchased the 45's. They were cheaper than the 30's. I'm not sure why. They might not be what I am looking for, I don't know until I get them. I was under the impression you need a 1000' of backer under the 1000' of wire. Does anyone know where you can find the Captain Jack Releases?

okuma convector cv 45d with daiwa heartland 10-6 dipsy rod. the same reel and the 8' daiwa wilderness rigger rod. getting them both in 4 pack deals the rigger is 80 and the dipsy is 110. there is no mono, wire, or backing. I have done a lot of shopping and research these are the best prices i have found. are these decent start up combos?
-
Im looking for some suggestions on rigger, dipsey, and copper rod and reel combos. Trying to keep the price around 100. Just bought a boat for lake ontario and now I need to give it some weapons. Point this rookie in the right way please.
-
slapped them in the face with a meat rig, 11 inch with 5' to 1' leaders, tight to the ball, a mile from the ball , spoons, dipseys, cheaters, glow, green, white, blue, red, brown, purple, and even a banana went down there and nothing. seen everything we had but our net. captain chris said enough was enough. im sure if we stayed there we could of snagged one ugly black salmon. but it was to good of a year to have a 12 hour trip for a fish or two.
-
Yeah a lot of them. In about 100' on the bottom. Went over them 5 times with different stuff and called it day at 10.

11 for 20
75-90 fow
45-70 rigger
150 - 200 dipsey on 3
300 copper
Flashers and flies
Early bite slowed right down after 9am. From 7 to 8 was pure mayhem with 4 doubles. If that was the last trip of the year, it was a great one to end on. Biggest was 28 and most were over 20.

coppers and dipsys
in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?
Posted
That is something that I did plan to do this up coming year. I also wanted to enter in a few myself. I would love to get some money or prizes for my addiction. Learning the tricks to keep my lines untangled is just like winning a prize. If you run 2 coppers off one planer board. Should the longer be out farther or closer to the boat. How far out is the planer board usually? Is there any relation to the length of copper?
