One salmon rig for Lake Ontario...
ReelSilver:
:w00t: :blink: Wow, you could not ask a more wide open question, LOL. First, almost every year the fish like something different. last year the hammer fly was hot. 2 years ago the Pro-Am fly was hot. Along with 1,500 spoons, the 300 plus flashers, j-plugs and on and on that I own, and you can mix flasher and fly colors to make a million combos... You should call a local sport shop or shops for the latest info and hot lure colors. I'll mention a few but everyone has there favorites. But remember, speed and temp are everything when trolling for salmon.
Chart. Chip/hammer fly
white chip/glow hammer or hammer
green chip/green crinkle fly
White spin doctor green dot/glow hammer or ultra glow green fly
Thanks

Wow, it took a year to get this thread happaning. I'm happy to say I've learned a lot in the last year fishing with some guys on this site (Bass_Belt, Laker 2011). We've experimented on the big lake with mixed success this spring using in-line planars, dipsy divers, lead core, wire line and down riggers.
I'd say downriggers (especially with a fish-hawk) are the way to go! No salmon for us yet, but plenty of browns and lakers. I think it'll be a few weeks before the salmon make it this far east (picton/kingston area).
Thanks for the tips guys - keep 'em coming!

DL- Does Don Cherry still have his sports bar in Kingston? I'll be there next week and if the Kings do not sweep the Devils, I'd like to take in a game there. I was there once maybe 12 years ago. Not sure if you like hockey or not.
TheDL:
nope, no don cherry's in kingston. Of course I like hockey, I'm Canadian. Fanatics on Princess St is fairly sports-oriented, foods not bad either. You might be over-run with college kids, but I think school's out, so it might not be that bad.
HowesVerona:
What!?!? How the HE double hockey sticks can they close down Don's? He is a living legend from the Kingston area. Pretty upsetting. Go Kings Go!
