    Silvers around calf

    Dan,

    This past Saturday we had about 30 total hits, we ended up with 15 kings and 4 lakers. Until I zeroed in on what they wanted we got several knockoffs and lost 3 matures. Also we had about 9 hits with nobody home, if your release is tight enough to set the hook its probably the fact they just were nipping at it, which happens. Sunday was opposite for us, we only had 8 bites all day. We landed one 20 lb King and lost two. The rest all hooked up tight and landed.

    So if your hooks are sharp and your release is not set too loose you will better your chances but some days they are just nipping, other days they have lock jaw, and some days they just smash the **** out of whatever you put down, LOL

    We fished Sunday also for the Brest cancer tournement, after Saturday we were in 1st and 3rd place for King salmon and excited to fish Sunday, however we started the day with a snapped outside rigger line, lost winger and Ball. Then lost 2 different kings that charged the boat. Fished mostly off the mountain to 2 miles past finger. Hit a 20lb King on wire Dipsey 225' out pulling a mag customized green jeans spoon.

    Hit some smaller 6lb kings and some lakers, but bite was slower than Saturday.

    I switched to a complete flasher/fly spread and immediately had a screamer on a rigger 125' down, but lost fish not far from boat. Over all a fun day, weather was awesome, can't wait to get back out. Good luck guys487429915b8b56bde97ab948c02417fd.jpged6d8ca6c086db287b953ae8081d41a2.jpg0c3e8ba1ba310a4adda6354e612c9c52.jpg

    Thanks Guys,

    Wasnt always a bed of roses, we got skunked opening day. So many boats I fished on Sacketts side of Blk River Bay and got a lonely pike.

    I only get to fish one day a weekend but never saw a year where I was fishing all huskys at 9:00am and had to switch to all top water an hour later cause what the screen was telling me. They would be there, get a double, and an hour later, all gone! Also, I can't count how many came unbuttoned or came off in the net. I do believe our walleye population is getting better every year, this year it seemed like if you found them they were there, but there was more bait......so when your pulling lures I always say,, " this is like pulling 99 cent McDonald's cheeseburgers thru Prime Rib, lol

    Question on transducer

    Thanks,

    No problem, I guess it just shocked my system, I'm always accused the absolute opposite. My wife says I have more tackle than Gander Mountain, she doesn't understand why I need over 80 rod n reel combos, [emoji56][emoji23]

    I did google the Aimar number, didn't know if someone on here had a 50/200 kh Airmar on a new lowrance unit using the same 200/50 KH. If so I was gonna buy new...plug and play for this season and then have new Airmar transducer installed at the end of the season.

    Sk8man...That's why I'm asking, there is a pin in the Airmar, I didn't know if they make an updated one that plugs in. I'm 44 and have owned 12 different boats and only a Penn Yan 262 competitor with a thru hull, all the rest were transom mount, so I don't know anything about them so that's why I'm asking. Also I don't try to "get by" with anything when it comes to fishing, I'll spend the money, I just was hoping I wouldn't have to get the boat lifted and stuck out of water for weeks as all the local marinas are way behind and miss all the Salmon action.

    There isn't anything wrong with the 2 10" lowrance units so I'll "get by" with them this season, lol
