Good to hear CDN MNR are still stocking Coho. I only fish Lake O north shore July and August 8 to 10 days per year and I don't catch very many Coho...maybe 1 to 10 chinook.

I agree, if they are handled properly ie put on ice ASAP, well packaged and not left more than 6 months or maximum one year in the freezer I can't tell any difference. That's been my experience fishing the North shore for 30 years. They are both great!

Thanks for this video topic Richard. I have Mag 10's on the outside so I probably won't change over to braid but I can appreciate the pros on it. I might change my inside Big JON riggers to braid to lessen the blowback...Occasionally I'll get one of my shallower inside cannon balls crossing over the outside cable if its out a long way. All good to know. I always wondered if the "singing" steel downrigger cables were OK or bad for fishing. They produce a lot of noise and vibration. However I also noticed that when the cables were singing, the speed was usually good for trolling spoon action and we did catch fish but...would we have caught more without the noise and vibration? I would be interested in other opinions on this. Thanks...Rudy

Do you point your sonars straight down best you can or do you point them slightly back to pick up canon balls and flashers etc?

Thanks for the dual screen demo of the how the fish mark on the two frequencies. This is something I am definitely going to look at for next year. Rudy Dyck Lanark Highlands, ON

Love that boat and your setup! Thanks for sharing. Do you have a fish cleaning set up? We clean most of our fish on the water because the marina where I launch my boat closed their fish cleaning station, and its great coming off the water with the fish cleaned and on ice. I understand this might not work where there are slot sizes or other regs that would prohibit it. I have a board big enough for 25 lb salmon that fastens temporarily to the gunnel which slopes out and down a bit with holes to drain into the lake. It works OK but I'm looking for ideas on how to fasten it to the gunnel quick and solid. I'm just using strong rubber bungy cords now.
