Thanks I didn't have any spro swivels so I twisted them together and covered them with heat shrink. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Had a huge tangle July 4 with my 300 copper and a wire dipsey. Had to cut out 30 feet section of Copper in the middle. Can it be spliced back together so I have. 270 copper? I just twisted it together to get it back on the reel and retrieve my gear. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I use a round bend swivel always. Stainless ball bearing eagle claw fairly big. Can't remember size #. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Hello All. I am coming to Oak Orchard for my first time. Usually fish OLCOTT. What's the best launch to use? Thanks. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Jeremy, what do you to get Lakers? Ice never caught one in 3:years of fishing LO. This would be good plan B when Salmon can't be found. Thanks. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Went out from 530 to 8pm. Stopped at 250 FOW. Water Temp at surface everywhere was 63. Cold water moved in I guess. The last time I was out it was 74. Trolled out to 300 then back to 190. Caught one steelhead in 220. Saw some bait there where I got the steelhead. That's all folks. Another slow one. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Thanks so much for posting the report. I went on the 9th and it was slow. I was hoping someone would give an Olcott update from the weekend. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Went west about 2 or 3 Miles. Fished from 130 to 200 fow. 74 degrees surface, and down 45 feet had about 53 degrees. Lots of bait and saw a few fish down 35 to 40 on the screen. Caught two small Cohos and lost two. One on spoon on the downrigger, one on flasher fly with diver lost one on a 100 copper. Slow afternoon, but beautiful. At one spot I found 48 degrees down 50. That was in about 170 FOW. Some guys at ramp pulling out at same time went east. They also had slow afternoon with only a steelhead and Laker as I recall. Hopefully the Kings will return from wherever they are. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I realize you already bought the 15 hp and you got hot great price. But for those who might use this thread as a reference in the future: there will be no difference in the speed generated from a 9.8 versus a 15 ho motor. There is s formula that is used to determine this. If you can't get on plane you will kit be able to achieve anymore speed with the bigger motor. I know this is hard to believe but I guess this is true. Based on drag. So for those who are making this decision in the future, do some research.

I bought the lowrance outboard autopilot and HDS 7. They work perfectly. But, I would not buy again for the fact you cannot get the units repaired, as I understand it. Sent from my moto z3 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
