I have one already set up with 300' copper. PM me on here or shoot me a text at 717-343-2694.

If bbwalleye doesn't buy it, put me next in line please.

I'll take it if nobody has already offered to buy it via PM yet.

I've been running a set of homemade big boards for a long time, and would absolutely never switch back to inline boards. I have a 19' sylvan navigator, 4' mast on the bow, and currently use dacron line. I'm going to replace it with spectra soon though. I usually use 3 rods per side. The order that you set these up in is very important. The first rod out on each side will be your longest lines and shallower diving. I start them around 220' back. The next will be 15' shorter, so 205 back, then 190, etc. The longest line goes in the front rod holder. I spool the whole reel in mono, no braid at all, for dedicated board rods. Clip the mono directly into an Offshore release, and send it down the line until it's a couple feet from the board. Deploy the next line from the back of the boat, go UNDER the first rod, clip it on to the tow line, go back under the first rod, and put it in the 2nd rod holder. Let it out a little over halfway down the line. Repeat this for the 3rd rod. When you hook a fish, it'll either pop the line out of the release by itself, or you'll have to do it. Either way, pick the rod straight up, keep tension on it, and let that fish swing back to the center. Once it clears the inside line, then you can start reeling. The 15' spacing, plus the distance between the releases, combined with the deeper divers being on the inside gives you plenty of room to get the fish centered up. I start them at 220' back so if you get a fish on the outside rod, the other two simply get slid down closer to the board, then you set the one that just got a fish as your inside rod 15' shorter than the last. Once you get to where you're setting them under 100' back, reel that side in and restart around 220.

Ended up going to Sandy Creek. Launched around 5:20. Started fishing at 100fow straight out, and got a few 7-10lb kings early between 100 and 140. Slowed down significantly around 930. Most of the kings were on a moonshine carbon 14 mag spoon. 52' down seemed to be the hot spot, especially early. Picked up a few steelhead on an agent orange moonshine 4" around 45' down, and a berkley flicker minnow 11D green alewife, a 12lb king with a good size lamprey stuck to it on a wonderbread dreamweaver spoon on a 350 copper, and a probably 7lb laker on a gambler rig just off bottom at 125fow. Started out with just spoons, tried a flasher/fly once it slowed down with no luck. 11/15 or so on the day. One king had 3 huge alewife in it, so maybe a meat rig would be something to try in the near future? Packed up around 12:30 or so, with very little action in the last hour and a half.

Looks like we might end up going to Sandy Creek lol. Not one of the four I originally thought, but oh well. Olcott has been on fire this year it seems like. I was up there once and went 9 for 15 or so before it really turned on, also with no down speed or temp. I'll post a report Sunday. Thanks guys.

Pick where you guys want a solid honest report from this Sunday. Irondequoit, Sodus, Olcott, or Oak Orchard. They are 1hr, 1.5hrs, 2hrs, and 1.5hrs away from me, respectively. I don't see many reports out of Irondequoit, but I was thinking about trying it out since it's close. I've always fished Olcott or Oak Orchard, but we're looking to possibly shorten the drive time for Sunday. Is Olcott that much better than Irondequoit, or is it just a matter of more reports being posted mostly from the same few people?

Ended up losing that one, but picked up an 8" king. If you're going to fish most of the day, bring a cooler of beer. A lot of guys say it isn't worth going right now, but there's still some fish to be had. We ended up landing 5 out of 6 fish and had an awesome time.

Got one on now 89 fow straight out

Moonshine carbon 14 has been the hot spoon so far. Got 3 fish in 20 minutes with that. We were at 80-95 fow down 60 feet straight out from the breakwall. That was around noon. Haven't done much since then. No big kings yet, but a good Atlantic and a 13lb steelhead. I'll try to keep this updated as live as possible. All the boats out here disappeared, so I don't think many people were getting many fish.

Picked up another dink king at 120. Going to try meat now.
