Spring Questions? Olcott.

[K Gonefishin]

I'm making the trip from Ohio (cleveland) May 9th for some spring trout and salmon action out of Olcott I was up in August and did pretty good. I have never fished the spring bite.....question is...are the fleas a problem? I ask because I left my Power Pro dipsy setups I use for Erie Steelhead and Walleye at home due to them being bad in summer last August can I get away with running them in the the spring or should I just stick with the wire set up?

Also. Should I leave my Stinger Scorpian size spoons at home? I have TONS of them because they are the bread and butter size for Eyes on Erie or would they be a waste of time up there. I would image they would get bent to you know what and the hooks are sort of small.

Thanks guys. I appreciate it.

Fleas arent a problem until July. Your probably going to want to run Stinger thru mag sized spoons for the kings. You may want to bring the scorpion size spoons and do some Walley on the Bars shoals

We have fished Olcott just in the spring the past few years, the dipsies work with either the wire or we have some with fireline, we have also causght fish on all the spoons sizes, nk 28 and mag sizes mostly. Flies have also taken their share of fish.

Hope this is helpful, the western end of the lake is a great time to be. Enjoy.
