not sure if you did this or not but most of Ontario is barbless single hooks so read the rules don't want the o.p.p. coming down on you for a simple mistake.. by the way you got spoons like eppinger casting spoons in the 500 size all the way to the smaller 3/4 ounce size... black and white, five of diamonds in yellow and orange , red/white etc...just suggestion  best of luck..

hay i got some 400 and 500 series eppingers I can mail you if your willing to mail them back and a few other lures if your willing to mail them back only problem is they don't got the single barbless hook mine are for the old regulations so if you want to let me know I can mail them quickly I would use 65 pound braid and steel leaders like of 150 pound test  but it all up to you a lot of lakers take those lager 400 and 500 series spoons trolled deep lead core or even dipsey divers... you could try ordering them from eppinger would take twice as long to get that why I am offering...

All set Boon, but thanks.
I've got tons of casting spoons for pike.
And the trolling rod and the spinning rod for pike are both spooled with 30# braid.
The stiff spinning rod has 40# mono.
The Ugly Stik and my jigging rod both have 10# braid.
And I have wire leaders for the pike.
I'm set.


From the rules and regs -

Hook –  A  hook  includes  a  single-pointed  or  multiple-pointed  hook 
on  a  common  shaft
  but  does  not  include  a  snagger  or  spring  gaff. 
The number of hooks includes any single-pointed or multiple-pointed
hooks that are part of a lure.

Hooks and Lines – An angler may use only one line, unless otherwise
stated in the regulations. Two lines may be used when angling from
a  boat  in  parts  of  the  Great  Lakes  (see  exceptions  to  the  general 
regulations) and for ice fishing in many areas (see Ice Fishing, page
11). A fishing line must not have more than four hooks attached.


And nothing on barbless hooks.

Again, thanks.

that might have been the great lakes regs that why I say keep up to date on them...here is a picture of two  300 series and a black and white troll devil  and a generic spoon... the 300 series is2.75 inch across by 6 inch long the troll devil is 5 inches long and narrower it has been a while since I been to the Canadian side that why I mentioned to check the regs you don't want the o.p.p. Ontario provincial police coming down on you for some thing stupid...

I have at least 2 of each of those and a few others - I'm set.
Besides, the guys I'm going with pretty much fish walleye............and they troll 90% of the time.   :(
So the spoon tossing will be little.
I'm the newest member and will do what the group does.
And the group are really not true fishermen.
Probably why the troll.
I wish my son Jeff was going.
But he can't afford it because of the job he chooses to work.
My fault actually.
I brought my kids up to do what they want, not what makes the most money.
Happiness is more important than $

Definitely won't be trolling for any lakers.
Not worth my time.
I trolled trout and salmonids on Lake Ontario from about 1977 until about 2000.
Got my fill of that.
Still hit the browns in the spring out there.
I'm more of a perch fisherman.
Love jigging.
But at my place on Erie we troll for the eyes.
Also jig for the perch, but that doesn't happen a lot because my son Jeff likes to troll for eyes.

The crawlers arrived yesterday.
Box is like 1.5' cubed.
Wow!
After going through them to check for any dead I stuck it in my kitchen fridge.
Donna's thrilled.
 :D

No trout.
I can get them here.
In Lake O and in the streams south of me.
Not interested.
Walleye, pike, and smallies.
In that order.

And yup, there will be plenty of pics when I get back.
Also videos.
