Mine is Lowrance HDS gen 3
out in that deep water say 200ft plus do you guys mark fish well on your graphs or simply just fish the temperature.
I couldn’t mark them that well.
Fished out of Oak again today. 5 kings and 6 steelhead. Had 6 other nice hits we missed. Spoons were the ticket. 500+fow of water was best for us (31N line) 70 down on riggers, 300 copper w/3oz snap weight and dipsy 200 back on 2 setting
Lowrance HDS
It is +4 From the default
fished this morning, 2 nice Kings and 1 nice steelhead. Caught 8 other small kings and Steelheads. Most fish came on dipsy FF or spoon. Setting 2- 275-280 back. 2.5-2.8 sog 200-400fow
That’s what I have been doing lol. Just torn! I liked fishing Mexico last year this time of year but the lake got nasty with The NW winds. This will be my 2nd trip ever to lake O so I’m a bit of newbie.
This will be 2nd trip up ever. Last year was labor day weekend in Pulaski and now that I am addicted I want to do another trip. Looking at the week of August 8th. What would be your recommendation for a port?
Thanks in advance.

First ever trip this week planned to fish Wed-Saturday. Fished Wednesday in the rain and went 8 for 12. Thursday we got out for maybe an hour in the AM and went 2 for 3 before getting blown off the lake. Friday we couldn’t get out due to the blow. Stuck around until this morning, got down to the launch at 5:30am and she was still angry. Packed up and headed back to Ohio. Thanks to everyone on here that helped me prepare for this trip. It was blast and I am hooked!
Most of our success was 70fow 2.3sog riggers down 55. Fly/flasher
Sounds like a great honeymoon! We will fish the 28th and 29th. I will definitely get a hold of you when the time gets closer! Thank you for the info and help!

What size dipsy's do you run? #1 or mags?
Do mark big schools or just small pods of fish typically?
Thank you and FF34 for this info. Very much appreciated.
Eric
Thank you!
This will be our first Salmon trip. I have a fish hawk on the boat and a Lowrance HDS unit. I read where everyone targets a certain water temp and thermocline. Do you not mark this fish on the graph and then target that depth?
