Stingray spoons catch fish but don't hold up...
djw13cwru replied to ErieBuck's topic in Tackle and Techniques
Ha ha, this has been a topic forever for the Stinger Spoons, especially on Lake Erie for walleye. The speculation was always that you would just buy more / new spoons, so why make the paint stick better (at least from Stinger's perspective). This is one reason I prefer taped spoons, they tend to hold up better. Maybe with the change in ownership the new spoons from Stinger will have better paint? Time will tell. -

What do you Run off planer boards?
djw13cwru replied to garrymny's topic in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?
Lead core and copper for me. In Erie I fish Jet divers / Tru trips, mini dipsys, flatline cranks, and single strand wire, and cranks with snap weights. I'm sure you could apply some of those to salmon. -
Check out the blood run website. They have info on splicing copper. They recommend replacing copper with a splice, but they also sell line. I have run mine spliced for a couple days, but I only get a few shots a year at salmon, so I end up replacing it pretty quickly.

x2 on adding the heat shrink. I also keep some in case I need to repair a copper on the lake....not that I have ever tangled one so bad I had to cut it and splice it back together.

A few more easy fuel related issue checks: Make sure spiders / bugs / etc. isn't clogging your tank vent. This can cause a vacuum in your fuel tank which is more noticeable when you try to run (i.e. draw more fuel.) Make sure your fuel line isn't collapsing on itself and restricting flow. Replace your anti-siphon valve. This should be at the tank. Sometimes they get gummed up / clogged.

Olcott 7/25 evening

Thanks for the update. I'm looking forward to my trip next week. -

I used TrueTrips (like a Jet) on Erie. They have a trip mechanism like a dipsy to make the retrieve easier.. The 50 size certainly would get you down pretty deep, but I have never tried them for Salmon.

djw13cwru replied to NymphO's topic in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)
I stumbled onto the dwb pattern a couple years ago after I let one of my kids pick out a lure at the store (it wouldn't have been my choice). Now instead of one dwb I have lots.....and I always run one!
