Years back when I chartered on Lk O , if J recall correctly we would run the temp break offshore for steelhead starting about mid May thru June .
Often times the anglers weren’t in tune with playing larger jumping fish like a steelies or bow .
Generally I would pull a set off my boards and run riggers down !
Maybe a couple of LC lines in lieu of DD’s
Anyhow long story short this photo will depict how I overcame losing many jumpers on the troll .
I installed an assist hook in place of standard hooks on my plugs and spoons . This prevented many jump offs !
Tadpolly and couple other Benos etc ! Some never fished !
12 ea , sold as lot only !
$45 shipped local to PA !
I’ll throw in 6 original stinger spoons brand new N/ C !
Trolling spoons assortment 12 ea ! Producers , Millers flutter , Red eye ! Probably never fished !

no charge !!! Colors I’ve used on steelies n browns with great success !
