Killin' It

should have fished this morning, but thought it was going to be rough as snot. ... I was wrong... So sleeping in was a good second option.

Between Holland and SH

Went 4.5 yesterday... 1 king/coho 1 brown 2 steel. Lost another brown at the net. 4 other fish lost to a rookie.

300 feet of 45 pound gets down a ways, I use the 32 pound and if I want to get it down farther I have run 4 oz dive bombs on them without issue. I know my 350 with a 4 oz dive bomb hits around 100 feet

1 2 3 colors of lead are worth the 12 dollar investment

I found a 5.25 in Jointed x rap.... prolly for musky, why would it not work. Its not that much bigger than some of the mag spoons we run.

Anyone ever try using 6-8 in swim baits for kings? Think it would work???

300 foot of 32 pound copper hits 90-100 feet depending on the location 350 105 to 110. I am going to add a 300 this year and run a 4 oz DB on it and then run another 300 on the second spot on the tree.

Don, I have used 2 to a side before. I have tanged them and I have done well on them. What I did... 350 copper let it out 150 feet put on the first dive bomb of 5 oz. send it out on the board 2nd rod 250 copper let it out 150 feet put on a 2 oz dive bomb put it in the shoot holder and let it plane out. Clip it to the board and send it way back and swing it around. 3rd rod I was a chicken and ran a 5 color. over the top I would then adjust the spacing between the rods. The only time I ran into problems with this is turn with a heavy current.

4-5 oz dive bomb on a 350 copper... = KILLER!!

Dont' feel bad Kevin, at least you got some hits we went 0-0 in 4 hours. out of PS. One guy had a nice steel and brown. Dave

I use the same stuff that reel picked up... Tuna works well too:)

I got a Priority1 yellow bird too!!

I may need 1 more so I can run 4 a side, but I may just have one in the basement. ended up comming home with 200 dollars... left the house with 200 dollars... Basicly traded some gear.... What new toys did I come home with... 7 yellow birds 2 tin cans (white with fish scale and yellow with prisam) 1 monica 1 purple monica 1 DW mixed veggie 1 pearl j plug 1 blue/yellow orange j plug 1 blue and silver spin doctor Saw lots of people and matched some new faces to names. LOTS OF GEAR around!!!

Ben if you need a table I am still set up for one... not much left to sell at this point.

I posted mine a while back, here is the link... http://www.greatlakesfisherman.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25095

my boat has 350 250 5 color on 1 side 300 200 5 color or 3 color 2 riggers 2 divers

3 big fish or 12 little fish... I will take the 3 ANY DAY..... Lakers are still in high numbers Plant more steel and browns... I would rather catch a 15 pound steelhead than a 20 pound king.

Soft winters = less stress on the bait fish= bigger kings.

I am interested, it depends on shift I am working at the time.

I plan on being in early and I can help clean up.

Blue and Chrome 10 inch has been good the past 2 years on the diver.

Proiority 1 Your always welcome to ride on the Tin can.... as long as you dont weigh twice as much as me.... small boat... big guys... not a good deal lol.

Next people are going to say no Tuna:)

What is this shrimp thing you are talking about.... LIES
