Once i left the 120 ish water per some thank full info on the radio:grin: and trolled into the 50 foot band it went rigger><>rigger><> dypsy ><>rigger and the fun began. Nothing like a phone ringing in the pocket(awesome fish call GB) :thumb:and a quad to start the fun fest. Long story short><> pro king 87 on a 2 color no1 rigger PINK ALEWIFE (just for RE lay) on the center rigger clean mono and pro king 88 on the no3 rigger with a 3 color swr. Happy meal out 90 on the dypsy and a couple git r done super slims on the boards went mid 20 ish for about 30. Caught fish from 6 inches( musta past through the nursery) to 11 lbs. We brought 12 home, a mix of kings and browns. What a great morning on a GREAT lake,light westerly breeze and bouncing rigger rods.

I would arm wrestle for a chance like that but I'm on da udder side of da lake.

Ewig Bros is the place to go for the specialty smoked fish products. You will be impressed with the new park going in where the coal pile used to be.

Smith bros is now a coffee shop and Newport is still very nice. Went back with the wife today,hit the deep water at noon and took a 10 fish limit on the 6 colr bn rv and pearl coyote w/ bull frog down 51...=ran the same track, surface was up 10 degrees but fish were still there.....sweeeeeeeeet ><>

Finally had a good day out of Port,ran out to the deep water and found some coho and rainbow. 135 degree heading for 9.5 miles. Its fun when every rod in a 11 rod spread takes a hit. Hot baits were moonshine rv bloody nose and crab face and DW SS double orange with gold tape and mixed veggies.f/f on a rigger down 61 and a dypsy 3 set out 121. 14 for 25 ><> 9 bows and rest coho.

I did what Ryan suggested with the P66...:thumb::thumb: Unbelievable difference in size of transducers from what I had..

I'm extremely happy with my Garmin 740S from Calumet Marine and it works under an aluminum hard top.

Thanks Russel for the live/tapped report.

Waukegan last sunday 30' of water.. I would think you might find a few along the state line.

If they don't sell I have 2 buyers lined up as of this afternoon.

In place of the red or16 I use these : ThePinClip.com ..they are more user friendly a couple of ways for old fingers and have a brass pin thats a little longer and easier to see if you have your line around it.

I would buy a 6oz torpedo diver and attach just after your 5 colors are out. Then let out required amount of line to achieve your desired depth. Use a pinch pad with a center pin to attach to your line.

My2sons, I went through the same scenario your going through now. I did go play at the stores with all the competition.I have used my buddies Lowrance stuff, I had Eagle FF and gps. I bought a Garmin 740s from Frank/Calumet Marine(site sponsor)..flat out best deal and his son Hondam rocks as far as knowledge and sharing info that I could understand. I was also looking for a unit to add radar down the road.

Iron sights will work, red dot is nicer:grin: 3" should be sufficient the most important thing to do is pattern test to see where the pattern is going.

On the west side of the lake we look for them where the thermocline(when it sets up) meets the bottom or around structure.

Some days every 15 minutes if I know the fish are there and active and I'm not getting hits.
