Spoons are good in the spring. Flashers in the warm water. When we run 4 divers I remove the flasher on the Hi diver and replace it with a glow spoon at dark. Take a look at this poll I did

I want the 8' for more separation. Would the 1' of separation be enough? They both have the same action.

My current wire rods are 10'0". My high diver rods are also 10'0". this makes deploying the high diver rods a pain. I looking at getting two 8'0" Shimano Talora Wire Line Rods. The new series has the swivel tips and 8 rollers . My only question is, at med action, will they be strong enough to pull mag divers? Link to mfg. site

I would encourage any one new to this to take Phil up on this offer. Phil knows how to put fish in the boat. I myself will be hanging out in the Upper Peninsula next weekend.

Nice job Bob. Welcome aboard.

Captain Russ.

Sounds like a interesting trip Paul. Them Walleye will make a great meal.

Arthur, Welcome to the site

We look forward to all the great reports Frank.

Sounds like fun Nick. The spring kings like to jump.

Jim, I use this site when I night fish Muskegon Lake. I find it to be way more reliable than NOAA. Winds of 18mph at 11 am:mad: Site located here.

Bill is a stand up guy.

All I can say is PULL! From a past skeet shooter guy, this sounds like a blast.
