  1. Olcott 5/18 We had 5 boats from Maine here this week starting Sunday. Fishing has been very slow for all the boats. Usually just a couple fish each boat/day.  Today all boats were out and only 1 small king was caught.  Yesterday we had our best day with 8 fish in my 
    boat. 2 steelhead, 2 browns, and 4 lakers.  Lots of bait in the 50 to 60 fow.  The steelies were caught on 4 color lead core and purple gators and sodus buckeye.  The couple kings were caught on purple spoons and a green up spoon off the dypsy.  1 king was off the 250 copper and a green uv spoon.     The west wind has warmed the water up a lot since Sunday and the bait does seem to be setting up good. Highlight was a 15.5 lb brown caught by Fish Hunter in 8.5 fow on a mooselook spoon. Slowest spring fishing I can remember in over 30 yrs.

    That steelhead doesn't look all so healthy!

  2. Probably the least understood factor in trolling with spoons is how important is the connection of the lure to the line.
    1.Tying the line direct to a front ring.
    2. Tyling the line to a duo-lock snap and removing the front ring
    3. Attaching the snap to the front ring which requires  the most speed of all.
    This pertains to all spoons ... not just HONEYBEES.

    Very interesting info. so you recommend at speeds of 2.3 mag spoons to run snap to spoon without split ring?
