2.5-2.6 down speed for us.

Nice job Jeff.

Good job Duane.

Very nice Hank.

Is this the chart you where using. I believe it to be close.

Albright Knot. I use it for all my line to line connections. Even core to mono. I take and tape the heaver line loop to my desk (or have someone hold it) when tying it. Full animation located here

35 for 45 thanks for sharing Mark.

I just splice a 6' pc of 40 pound mono between the PP and Copper.

Thanks for the report Mike.

Flasher/fly works all year. If I was to only run 4 rods, then I would have two on the rigger with a fixed slider attached (all spoons). The other two would be divers with 8' leads to flasher/fly. Like Frank said, the 100 foot rule is a good starting point White spinney with a no-see-um Fly Green spinney with a green fly. Siggsriggs has some nice fly's. Matt is a great guy that sponsors a lot of activities here. Located here

Nice work out there Kevin.

Jason, check out this tread. It's the same question with many reply's. Located here

Per your reply to my tread, I got a clear one. I cant wait to try it. Thanks, John.

Good idea JC. looks nice.

Great looking fish you have there Captain Richard. That water looks choppy.

Welcome to the site Steve. By the looks of your Avatar, your more than just a Kingfisher;)

ti the site Tim.

I was raised on a Beef farm:D Jenny really pissed off the Michigan Farm Bureau with this one.

Ouch! Good luck with it Jim.

Thanks for the report Duane.

Sounds like a great way to start the season Matt.

I agree with jim on the divers. The walker in the 124mm size, set at 1.5 will dive at a %50 ratio. 100' of line out = 50' down.

Think of you presentation as a V pattern. Both horizontal and vertical. The point of both V's would be your riggers. Riggers set deepest and closest to the boat. The the divers would go out and be the center of the V. Mid way down and back. The core line would be the back/top of the V. Core lines go way back and don't go that deep. If you had the rigger at 60' down and 30' back, then the diver would be 120 out on a 1.5 setting (depth around 50'). lastly a full core out 100' out on a board would be running 40' down (a full core is 10 colors). Braided line is best for core backer. (it uses less space on the real). 40 pound power pro is what most like. you core setup will be 450-600' of 40 pound braid, core, then 20-30' of 20 pound mono to lure. These boards both work good for the core lines. Stay away from stacking rigger rods. Instead add a stacker line to your rigger rod. A stacker is a 6' pc of mono with bb swivels at both ends. Attach it to your main line after you let the rigger down 10+- feet. Use a rubber band to hold it in position like this. A lot of the guys on the board are willing to take new guys out. Keep us posted on your progress. Nailer out.
