Not sure what you mean about being able to change out flies on the Salmon Candy flashers.  Tie an overhand knot in fly leader at end and you can pass loop through attachment point on any brand flasher, then pass hooks and fly through that loop after it is through swivel and pull tight.  Easy to reverse that to change out.  Note the second pic is out of sequence and is really 3rd in the steps to attach a fly with an overhand knot to a spin doc.

Look up Russell Gahagan on YouTube, you can change the flies but use the same leader , he from Wisconsin, 

Any certain colors on Lake Ontario , we only get to make a few trips a year so I’m trying to up are game a few notches 

Appreciate the come backs , didn’t really think about all that, all I’ve ran up to this point was spin doctor and meat Riggs with the big flashers 

Over the winter I’m getting a selection together, what do you preferred to use and why , I’ve made the trip to Lake Ontario for 4 years now and did pretty good but I know I could do better , I kinda like the salmon candy line  , can switch flies without having to re tie the leaders , what’s you thought. 

You are right , I’m in the automotive business and I’m always spending money on wire schematics from all data , 

I can say the dealer I bought my from has went way beyond what most dealer would, boat was 1 yr old , started went out , every dealer was a 2 week out , he got me one and installed it the next day , then I crack the hull , he went to bat for me and when we figure out the problem I drop the boat off at Starcraft and was back on the water the next week with a new hull , even 7 year later he helps if he can , just this year I had a fuel problem and he talked me through it to find out the problem and sent me the part to fix it when ever place around me told me no parts are available , a good dealer will help you even after a purchase.

I would recommend Olcott or even further East to Oak Harbor.  We fished straight out of Wilson on Monday offshore to the Canadian border.  We picked up 2 Kings (15 & 16 lb) and 4 steelhead between 8 & 11 am.  We fished out of Oak Harbor on Tuesday (My first time fishing that area).  Again we went offshore to 650 FOW and went 3/4 on the Kings and 4 Steelhead.  I believe we could have caught more Kings if the weather would have been better...we only fished for 3.5 hours on Tuesday (and wasted almost an hour as my sons buddy let a bag of chips fly out of the boat so we pulled all the lines and went back to pick it up and then looped around and set-up again.....by the time we did that our fishing trip was almost over)

 

Regardless of where you should plan to be offshore.  Also, put a variety out and let them choose what they want.  On Monday (Wilson) we caught the Salmon on meat rigs on a 300 copper and 10 color leadcore.  No fish hit any of our divers.  Steelhead were caught on the riggers and copper.  On Tuesday (Oak Orchard) we hooked 3 of the Salmon on a diver with a white flasher fly.  Nothing on the weighted lines.  

 

Regardless, good luck.  I live in Michigan and have made the trip to Lake Ontario 3 times this year to give you an idea how much better the fishing is in Lake O than Lake Michigan.  Hopefully that changes this weekend as I'm hoping to try Manistee Michigan

Same boat as you , we usually go to Lake Ontario but with the east winds this weekend we will be in Manistee , also live in Michigan lol

What the weekend weather look like as far as wave height , making the trip from Michigan thanks 

We had a evening last year , something like 3-12 and every body at the dock was having the same problem that night ? 

Thanks Jeff , sounds like I have everything set like that , I’ll ck it out tomorrow when Fishing 

I have a lowrance gen 2 , I have no problem marking walleye on Lake Erie but when it comes to salmon I hardly ever mark them , I don’t lose the bottom, I just don’t get it 

That’s a hell of a deal 

InSanEddie, don’t be a nice guy , tell them to take care of this problem immediately or your going to hire a lawyer and the cost of this boat ain’t **** of what your going to sue for , there no reason to wait that long for someone to ship it back to the factory, when I told them that they move quickly, you have a case hands down 

On my 2013 Starweld a seam in the front split , they claimed I hit something, which I knew I didn’t, I found some bad welds on the braces and the factory agree to replace the hull and only cost to me was 2000.00 because the boat was 2yr old , after a 10 minute conversation with the factory they agree to do it free , they had me back on the water within a week only because I dropped it off at the factory, there is no reason for welds to split like that if welded correctly. 

Way to go Jeremy, your a good person for helping out these ladies, looks like they had a great time, well done 

Dave you running the 300 off of boards , we try a churches tx44, it’s was a pain , don’t know if offshore Walleye board is enough to pull the copper? 

Thanks, I’ll have to rigs up my 300 copper just for Garry Jackson, he loves reeling that in , 😂 

What were you running the meat rigs on

Out last weekend and the fleas were bad , I was running wire and my buddy was using braid, both had fleas on and he cleaned his line just as quick as mine 

Thanks for the information, I was going to try the offshore board next but sounds like I have the same problem, I’ll have to order a set of the ziggy boards

Just ordered a couple Ziggy Z Boards, Godzilla size, tried them today for the first time and they worked great! Put the OR-18 snapper clip on the front and OR-16 on the back.

No problem with them nose diving? I use offshore for walleye, the first time using church not impressed 

What boards do you use for pulling 300,I tried the church’s big board and it was a pain in the ass , wanted to sink when I let it out 

200-250 straight out 60 down, 4, for 7 this morning
