  1. I have Been fishing meat for a lot of years. Rhys Davis was THE best cut bait ever. He got out of the US market when VHS raised its ugly head. He would not change his prep methods I have tried every imitation cut bait product. I have a ton of Big Weenie stuff. Think I may have taken one king on it. Probably on a day they would hit a tin can I can say that NOTHING outfishes the real thing. Some brands are better than others. Don't cheap out. Buy the best IMG_1383.thumb.JPG.4264cf59a91ba40da0dbbe11f131eb62.JPG

  2. You can get clean rigs without teasers or meat rigs with teasers. Atommik, big weenie, dreamweaver, diabolical, big water tackle, and john king all make quality meat rigs. Best for a beginner are atommik with john king heads or john kings himself i prefer his mag meat heads. The others use ryhs davis heads and they do require tunning. John king heads roll true every time you put them in the water. He has a website with meat fishing tips and tricks. Www.michigansportsman.com

  3. Never fished the finger lakes but the 5 to 8 times a year you fish lake o it will be a huge improvement. This weekend i fished bluffers on the north shore and had to go 3.4+ sog to get 2.7 on my fish hawk on a west troll. East troll was 2.2 sog to get 2.7 on the fish hawk. Divers didnt look bad at 3.0 sog on the west troll but the fish were not biting cranked the speed up friday night after a half hour without a hit and with in 30 seconds had a double on the divers and it was like that the rest of the weekend double triples and quads. I really dont rely on it for temp but there is nothing more important then knowing the speed at the lures. Fishing without knowing the down speed to me you might aswell stay home and do yard work!

  4. Deep riggers and wire divers is the place for meat. I fished out of bluffers park this weekend 90 on a rigger with the atommik stud meat rig and a 10" white slick glo was steady saturday and sunday. Saturday was a fly bite on the divers 110 to 120 back on 3. Sunday was a meat bite on the divers 150 back on 1.5 and 180 to 210 back on 3. Blister was good on a diver and also a rig i made with rapture teasers. I ran a few ryhs davis and dw heads with just a bite here and there. Most of my meat bites where on 10" spinnys this weekend. Fly bites where on 8 inch spinnys. Never had a bite on a protroll tbis weekend. Aslo down speed at bites was 2.4 to 3.1 on my fish hawk. Currents where crazy on sunday. My rigger at 90 was fishing 40 to 42 degree water.

  5. Do you have a probe? Its not just the flasher its also the herring if it aint spinning you aint catching. Ryhs davis heads require tuning at some point. John king heads are by far the easist to run i would suggest getting some atommik meat rigs with the john king heads and it will certainly shorten your learning curve. Speed can be all over ive caught fish at 1.5 mph down speed aswell as 3.5 downspeed and everywhere in between. Also dont think you have to run the big fish flashers with meat 8 and 10 inch spin drs work great aswell as 11 pro troll pro chips. Paddles without a fin dont work well mith meat for me.
