We run our Cannon downriggers in a track with a 4" pedestal on our Lund. I run them on a 45* angle from the boat and don't extend the booms. Most of the time I'm shallow water fishing with these and running 10 or 12lb Sharks. On occasion I have run 15lb weights. It doesn't flex the gunnels this way. If you have access to put in a backer plate it's always a good idea.
What length track are you using for the rigger and diver rod holders?

If still not taken, I’d love them. Picked up an old boat last year and slowly getting it repaired and rigged to fish. No downriggers on it yet.

We got one out of Sodus yesterday!

Hi. I’ll be going out on Cayuga with some friends in a couple weeks. We are hoping to target landlocks. We’ve only fished Canandaigua and never targeted salmon before. Any suggestions? Probably launching out of the north end.

I was given this flasher fly combo many years ago and it has done well for us. No idea what the fly is though and I want to buy more. It’s white/pearl and has 4 glow beads and a single treble. Any help with ID or recommendations on similar flies would be appreciated!

So I purchased a SpoonCrank Box as recommended by some on here. I think its going to be just what I was looking for. My question is how do some of you identify your spoons (Michigan Stingers/Northern King) after you open them and place them in the box? I understand many of you have been using many of these for years but I do not have them all memorized yet. Is there any printable charts with the spoon and names?
When I buy new spoons, I take a picture of the spoon with the color pattern on the barcode and save it on my phone. Probably not the best solution but it’s worked so far.

Nice Rainbow! We launched at about 2 when most tournament boats were coming in. We fished 2 riggers with sliders, a 3 color and a dipsey. Had 2 rigger bites and landed 1 laker. Both bites were 50 down over 200.

We were only a few minute off from catching this one in totality! We had 2 salmon on at the same time but the other broke off. The half hour before and after totality was good for us today.
