Dagwood Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Fished solo from 6:00 to 10:00 and went 3 for 6. Steely on a slider with a NBK down 45 190 fow, laker on a 150 copper with a UV mixed vegy- turning to sharp, and a 5lb king on a 2 color with a 2oz dive bomb pulling a MS JJ Mcmuffin (I think) in 175 fow.I think I just got out to deep as most boats were in the 100-150 fow range. Started marking more fish and bait as I was bringing lines in around 140 fow.All fish had 4-5" alewives in them.Just feel like it is such a guessing game with no temp/speed probe. The website that shows what the currents are doing never seems to be accurate. Yesterday it showed the currents going from south to north and my lines were angled south when trolling west. It was a great night on the water however. Just have to keep practicing.Good luck, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coralee Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Top currents can be different than lower ones which can make things interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackhawk Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Wow, that is cool. Definitely a surface analysis like the temps, but useful info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagwood Posted June 18, 2014 Author Share Posted June 18, 2014 I believe the website is showing sub-surface currents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackhawk Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 After re-reading the info under the charts, You are right Dave. It is an average of current from surface to bottom. Not a snapshot like I thought it said. It is pretty amazing technology at our fingertips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
