  1. Sk8 100 per on the same page I still use my gramps tackle box and have about 80 of his suttuns, which are at least 50 yrs old or more He died in 86 so do the math.s quick strikes , Hincks , #7 flat fish . old repulas, Flasher rigs etc .You Know. Seams the more beat up the better they work especially after a big bow hammers it . and no they ain't for the big lake. The more brass showing throw the better. Don't no why may more natrual? Really don't care either it works so I use them with the 10 or so new ones I buy. I cant seem to make any of my big lake stuff work in the finger lakes .sure catch a few . .And I agree slower is better with the flutters. 1.5 to 1.9. I do it to honor the old guys. and yes we have put single hooks on few. or gramps always did.Some of theses spoons are pushin 80 yrs old. I don"t use them but here always on boat. Fenton Criss Ring a bell . Arts bait shop, Seth Hodge, Byron Blazey. To Name a few. These guys all fished out of Little 16 ft. Duracrafts with 9.9 s on the back. Catching white fish and walleyes. then trout when all that went down but you know that story. Lets Hook up some time !!! I'm not as serious as you . Because I"m a crazy stream fisher In spring and fall. Love them Steel head. But I'am getting to old for that HaHa. Time for boat to the heavy lifting. pardon my bad grammer and spelling.to old to care Use heavy suttuns up on the big lake and the take it pretty well no problems. If I Could just get them damn in line baords to stay on.motherfrigggg. Love your Knowledge too ! (all you guys ) Have funnnnnn!!!!!!!!!
  2. I know were the Browns are just seeing if any body caught any . I see'em scuba diving They is fun to watch. along with bass some big smallies always hang around anchor balls. Browns outside lookin in fast buggers for being fat. Caught 11 lb in derby a few years back when monster laker was caught. Laker made my brown look like chum bait. Haha that was amazing. Wish my old grand dad could have seen that!!! Oh ya caught that brown just south of the vine about 30 yds. off shore. top leader on seth green rig just put at 6:30 am .yelling at wife (i mean The Captain for getting to close). heavy rod went nuts , cranked up 20 ft. to top leader fought fish on 12 ft #10lb. leader she swung around back of boat right into net in right hand . One lucky duck !! That makes fishin fun. Caught on gramps old sutton 22 hammered. Must have been lookin down.

  6. SK8 man I dont Know how old you are But I have been fishing Canandaigua lake since I was 10 years old . With grampa using copper vic rigs , then Seth green rigs . Now 65 using Riggers ,Dipseys and in line boards. Still never been skunked. When i put on heavy suttuns no good. when I put on strike kings , Flasher fly and that other stuff for Lake Ontario salmon no good here. Sutton flutter always kills it.
