  1. New to lead core..when reports say 5 colors, or 3 colors...is that referring to only that amount of lead on your real, or is that just how many colors you let out, with more colors still on the reel? Ty
  2. Straight out to 50 feet. Headed east 30ft down anything green. 3 for 3 kings, few Lakers mixed in. First one of the year for my fish wisperer...
  3. 3 for 3 anything green. 50 ft down 30. I went east from bear creek. The boy got his first of the year
  4. I tell my son the same thing...he said he'd rather be in net...lol
  5. Nice fish. Did you stay in 30ft or head straight out and troll into deeper water
  6. Thanks again. I have the FF I like, but I don't think its capable .of pairing with a trolling motor, which I'm ok with. I'm not so interested in contour, just a constant course. I can use the trolling motor wireless controller to adjust direction.
  7. So the trolling motor doesnt need to communicate with the GPS to keep on track.
  8. I'm looking to get a new GPS and trolling motor package to allow me to more or less auto pilot while tending lines. I have a 17.5 ft aluminum that I routinely take out to 250ft. I dont know much about reliable brands or good set ups so I'm looking for some expert help. Am I wasting my time and money? Thanks Dave
  9. Found a boat load in 16 feet on the east side. Live minnows, I turn of bottom. We would have kept going if it weren't for the bone cutting wind that showed up.
  10. What is a reliable net for landing kings. The net I had was not deep enough and I had some bigger fish jumping out of the net and breaking my gear.
  11. 2 bucks each...everything. there arent alot left. I walked out of there with 4 meat rigs, 10 flies, 5 dreamweaver spoons...40 bucks. Hurry before its gone.

    Perch

    I want to get my boys out and catch dinner....namely perch. What spots on IBay are producing perch? What depth..deep near the hump south of the bridge? I'd spend the day searching myself, but little ones have short attention spans and I want them to be excited about fishing.
  13. For us new guys..what is a Gary D rig? I see guys talking about it all the time. Thanks Dave
  14. We share the same last name. Any relatives in Watertown or on manton michigan?
  15. Thank you. I'm trying to determine if I should go out to deep water or go shallower and try to grab some staging fish in front of Ibay or the Genny for an afternoon trip tomorrow.
  16. If I were to take out some vets this weekend near Rochester..should I go out to 350 fow or stay in 100 fow and look for staging fish? Thank you.
  17. Then thats what I was getting into today in 250 feet. Thank you
  18. May seem like an obvious question, but do I focus on areas in front of the river they are running, or poke around 100 everywhere. Are meat rigs and spoons still the go to bait? Thanks again
  19. When do the mature fish start staging? And how does that change the way you catch them? Depth, baits, flashers...flies....is it all out the window ir do you just adjust depth to target them? Thank you
  20. 4 for 4 this morning. Green Jean's magnum 250 fow, down 90, dipsey out 200 at 1.5 with a green atomic meat rig, 300 copper green atomic meat rig and down rigger 300 fow, down 90 with a purple atomic meat rig. It was rough out there, but as long as the boy is happy, I'm happy...
  21. I agree, but the weather report didnt mention anything about a 12 NW. We "found" it on our way out. I'm looking for a more reliable weather source.
  22. Left this morning with the forecast of 2-3 mph NW winds. Thinking the lake should be pretty flat, I was surprised to see white caps and rollers with winds at 12 knots out at 200 fow. It's too much for my 18ft aluminum, so we went home. What is a good source for wind and waves? And why is there 3 knot winds on the shore and 12 knot winds 2 miles out? Thanks for the help
