  1. Going to be on the DANEL saturday morning if we can get out!!!
  2. Beat chains with two split rings and a treble is way easy way that we have found to do it. The reason that I went to one hook is, i was tired of digging in the net for 10 minutes when the morning bite is going on and i got sick of it.
  3. I really like the power pro on the riggers of the killin time. No hum, the water fleas are a pain sometimes. Don't have to worry about the wire kinking. It's about 75/25 wire vs power pro on the boat that I work on from grand haven to Manistee/
  4. 15-20 silver hoard ace high. 5 11 inch flashers. 10 8incher. Dozens of stinger spoons. 4 mag walker divers. 1000ft of copper. 25 colors of lead core. 3 rigger weights.
  5. When i call people i want to know TWO things, how much water and how far down there coming. Its a new quiz for me everyday to figure it out. Being on the water everyday helps. If something is smoking hot for someone then ill change it up, being on active fish and right dept is more important then light green vs dark green to me.
  6. Single treble for me
  7. Blended? Online and classroom?
  8. I live in middle michigan, 1hr 10 from GR, 1hr 20 from TC and am looking at taking my capt test here in the near feature. Is there a weekend thing only classes or is it all a 11 day long course? Also if you have experienced a class please place the website to also, Thanks.

  10. Very cool that you are getting set up with Bruce's product, very good invention and even better people! Anyone looking at a anchoring system look at anchor wizard, he has all kinds of systems out there.
  11. 3 people is always usually effective when there in tight, a wheel guy, rod guys and a net guys. Makes things so much easier.
  12. Stop into insta launch next year, we do the hot board and gives you insite on where the fish are that we found them

On the 10 colors-400 coppers it was green dolphin, killer dolphin, mod blue dolphin stingrays and black ladder lack, green spatter, double glow ace high plugs. 8inch pearl fishscale with oceana stinger meat rig has been good on a low diver along with a white protrolls with hypnotist meat rigs. Good luck after the big blow the next few days.
