saturday we picked up 20 something, sunday i think it was 5. the fillets on these fish were so thin and mushy im not sure they will survive the spawn or even spawn. and no fight to them after the initial hit, was using 8 pound flouro and locking the drag down to haul them in quickly. that would normally be a break off.
togue #3 is big!
Man I wish I have a boat big enough for Sebago.
i'll chip in
I trolled around the shallow water on the west side of the lake, and no hits at all, but i was trolling hardware, might be time to switch back to the frozen smelts... or it could have been because the wife was with me.
Ill hook you both up. 1989 alumacraft 19'6 has 1990 evinrude 140 looper that needs carbs cleaned. 30 gallon tank needs to be emptied and cleaned. Has 55lb minnkota with ipilot. 9.8hp 4 stroke tohatsu kicker....cheap. No leaks in the hull at all.
overdressed bulkie deerhair streamers with big eyes were working for us this past weekend, thinking that they looked perchy. everything jigging off the jig boxes, jigging planer, jigging down rigger, and a shasta sling blade. the sling blade off the copper line was the ticket with the downriggers coming in last. silver copper backed mooselooks did better saturday than the flies on sunday. first time with a sling blade, you can change speeds dramatically with it. says you can vertical jig with it as well, soon to be tested
