I have to wire diver setups on Diawa sealine 47 lc with 9 foot shimano Talora rods and I installed twili tips running 1000 feet of seven strand wire. They don’t seem to pickup smooth and easy like my cold water copper reels or sealine downrigger reels and I can only attribute it to the wire.. is this normal?

Just put a new set of big Jon reels on the boat and running otter boards off them. I don’t care for the line that came spooled on the reels it seems to really catch the wind and getting a lot of slack in it to the board so my releases are not sliding down as far as I’d like. What’s the best line to re spool them with?

Very happy with the results of rotella t-5 synthetic they make it 5-40 and 15-40 one of the best oils you can buy

So having kids and stuff on the boat I have a ton of scuffs and stuff on the deck and sides of the interior. Maybe a runner scuff from a shoe or a spot where the net rubbed and left a mark or a planer board rubbed the side.. no amount of scrubbing and stuff is taking em off!! Been using toilet bowl cleaner with bleach and it does okay but I’d like to get it a lil nicer. Been looking into those Starbrite products. Any suggestions?

Caught my biggest brown ever 16lbs in 325 fow straight out from oz with a 10 color leadcore never quite figured out what he was doing out there

If you guys need small spoons I may be able to help you out. Its primarily what we use one erie for walleye and I paint my own with powder paint that gets baked on and wont chip off

I’m courious to see how ya do.  the weather  reports were lookin like a pretty hard west blow the last few days.  I’m wonderin if It blew some better water to the east side.  
 

good luck when u get out.  I’m not comin up this weekend but will be out every weekend after till September 13. 

Did you guys make it out last Sunday? Was way worse than the 1-3s they were callin for,

everyone on my rig started feeling sick and we pulled the plug early.

Never happens on tourney day!! Are those 8 or 10 inch spinnys 

If your core took a shot mind you it could of been a steelhead up a bit higher in the Column, I’d try picking riggers up a bit

Fished out of oz both days started out with some nasty waves. Fished from 20fow to 150fow. Best bite was 50-70 if you can call it that. Few browns baby Kings and lakers. Super slow from what it’s been the last cpl years. Bait was stacked in 60 fow on the bottom when we left and surface temp was 57

Heading to oz Saturday there callin for 10-20mph out of the west but hopefully that changes a bit or it’s gonna be a bumpy shakedown

Way to go guys!!’

Way to go! Im jealous havnt been out yet!

So is it frowned upon to pull the boat up for a day trip right now? Im 40 mins south of binghamton dying to get out for browns while work is slow

I plan on making a trip from pa around thurs to oz or mexico. If i cant work gonna try and get some fishing time in. Its hard to be more socially distant than being out on water.. 

You need to be using deep water mode and 83khz if you dont have 50khz. Its what i run on my hds7 much better pic

Weather on your vhf will give you predicted wave heights and current wave heights 

100-150 on the bottom head north theres some giant lakers out there

Tough bite guys workin out deep, all i found was little ones out there scatterd but ones we cleaned were eating giant alewives gl

Naa you will be fine, 15 mph would be harsh saturday looks like its gonna be a nice day on the water. Im keeping my eye on thirsday!

Gona be up 5 days next week, wanna break it up and spend a day trolling for eyes. Im

staying in oz but dont mind makin the run up torwards henderson for some fish.

fish are still there. It’s time to throw temp out the window!!! We took the majority of our fish in 68-72 degree water Sunday for the Invitational. Spoons, bait, and flies took our shots. Hearing the temp as settled a little
More today. So it should be get much better by the weekend.

Don't bite then ? 

 

You must be joking . 

 

But first light and just before dark is best

Hes probably referring to the kings not feeding, in essence you gotta just piss the mature kings off for a bite

Wow fish were shallow 65 fow on a 5 color! I would never think in august must of been in 75 degree water
