    Question on 500 copper

    in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?

    Posted

    You only need a 500 if your 400 isn't reaching deeper fish than the 400 will reach. If temps for productive fishing are 100 feet down or more the yes a 500 will be beneficial. You can make your 400 go deeper if necessary and keep one copper for everything. I assume you have down riggers?. In the case where you find temps and fish hanging at depths 90, 100, 110 even deeper, you likely have a rigger ball running down there...maybe at 100 feet. You can if you want, and aren't opposed to stacking on that cable, put a stack release 80 feet above the ball that is going to be at 100 feet. Now your 400 will reach 100 also. Or mix it up...70 feet above the ball. Now ball at 100 and 400 copper at 110. It works. I do that often with 100 coppers 20 feet above the ball or 30 to 40 above for mixture of king and steelhead sets.

    Reading what everybody says about how they thing the mussels get in there stomachs.

    Just my thoughts, why arent there small rocks in the stomachs as well?

    If they miss the gobies why wouldnt they spit it like a hard bodied lure or lead jig like they do when you dont set the hook at first?

    Would the mussels be to large to pass thru digestive tract if inhaled?

    So do they digest or regurgitate?

    Nice catch.

    Blow boaters

    My first experience with one was just south of Long Point on Seneca Lake. He cut right in front of me I turned hard , yelled and threw my hands up in the air. He displayed a BIG smile and pointed his finger up at his mast. No sail , he was running a small out board. I them saw his fishing pole with line out the back. I turned some back and pointed at my down riggers. He look puzzled at me then grabbed his rod and started reeling like crazy....... too late a bit later I brought the rigger up and found a Yo Zuri lure hooked to my rigger wire. They were more $$$ than I wanted to spend back then,

    Love it

    What to use for filler or medium for homemade scents

    You can warm up potroleum jelly to thin it down and then mix together, im assuming the fish has been brined or else it will spoil.

    Glycerine oil or propolyne glycol are good lure bases and can be bought at drug stores usually,glycol is a bit more thin consistency where the glycerin is thicker both are oderless and can be food grade quality and dont freeze.

    Using fresh fish added to what i just described and then add sodium benzoate as a preserver.
