fishsniffer

I like my raymarine fishfinder so much I bought it a raymarine chartplotter to have as a friend. Can't wait till I can run it

thanks for all you did tim..had a great time:thumb:

i fillet the green label herring..i get mine locally at fish on bait and tackle or shoreline mobile..you can get it online also

i also prefer the wire for the dipseys..on the copper rods im on the side of power pro backer then a section of mono then the copper..mainly becouse you can get larger amounts of copper on smaller reals and becouse the mono degrades over time and whenn you have to replace the mono backing every couple of years it becomes a lot more expensive than the power pro..you just replace the section you put in between the copper and the power pro..i checked the breaking strength on some 30 pound backer i had on a reel i ran for 2 years and it broke at 19 pounds

i will admit i havent given them much of a chance but i just dont care for them.. of the fish we caught some were hooked nicely but mostly we lost close to the boat while some spit the hook just as we netted it and i never tried again

which one

these tourneys are 30 to enter and are open communication..meaning we encourage sharing of information to help everyone catch some fish..if your looking to learn different tactics and such this is the place to go (besides websites such as this)weigh in usually results in an info overload..we are very proud of how freely guys share theyre knowledge at the events..you will enjoy it

jake, here is a link to the rules and such..feel free to contact me 231-206-0048 with any questions..http://www.greatlakesfisherman.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20804

dem some big charter boats:eek:

i have this baaaaad feeling i may be doing more buying than selling:eek:

i may have a few things if terry leaves me any room on the table:D

my lineup gets changed every 15 minutes if the fish arent biting..its one of those deals where you have to absorb everything you read and hear and just go out and try it..internet fishing will get you to a point but nothing beats going out there throwing something out in different conditions and seeing what happens..as you stated though its hard when you only make 1 trip a week..sometimes its not really as much the color you throw down but the speed and water column your running it in

same here with the exception of the third rigger(only have 2)..also depending on dipsey bite i may add one

we do a lot of what youre reading in previous posts..but we definatly tend to run a few more meat setups..black and silver being a good choice

i have been replacing lead with more copper every year..this year i will have only 2,3,5 and maybe a 7 of lead..all the rest will be copper

I let them out the same as any dipsey. The only difference is I put large bead ahead of the swivel and I real it up till the bead hits the first eye. That's also how I store it.
