That's a beauty mark. Nice color to fins like a true native lake superior laker!!

Very nice Kevin....I wish i had a report like that:mad:

That is a great year no matter how you look at it! 44 trips is something i can only dream of. I only made 8 this year:mad:

I don't like long rods for boards because it make taking off the boards more difficult. I would prefer to use 7' rods for the boards. For the short cores a medium action rod should work.

Good point Kyle & medium light is what we run on the shorties, but we are on superior with much smaller fish targeted with our shorties:thumb:

Great looking fish Jonas. Sounds like you were busy with six fish this trip:thumb:

Welcome to GLF Ali!

No questions about it! We owe a ton of respect to all veterans. I hope we all realize that freedom is not free!!

Nice work Jason:thumb:

Nice fish!! Thanks for the pics

Hey...that looks like an SCBA mask with a respirator adapter!!! You didn't have any extras at the station did you?

Welcome to GLF Jim. Very nice fishing platform you have there:thumb:

Love it! That beach is the start of my early spring fishing grounds:thumb:

One of the coolest things in the video is the flag stuck in the sand bar. Some buddies of ours stuck that early this summer and it is still there. Though it was really fitting for the song as well.

Awesome way to go out mike. Looks like it was a nice ride once it warmed up a little:thumb:

I had a hard time with my masts and big boards for a summer spread being that i run multiple dipsys off of each side and like to mix it up and run heavy cores and copper out to the side most of the summer. It ate up a lot of time shuffling rods around to reset and like someone else said when the shallow one goes you are not getting her back out without reeling in hundreds of feet of line. I just couldn't figure out how to make it easy, but if you do go that route only the otter boats will do. You also do not need the mast on the front of the boat because you can modify the fin on the otter boats and they will just about pull straight out from the boat. My mast is a part of my great lakes planer system and EASILY accessible in the middle of the boat as you can see here.

I went back to my custom modified inline boards for the better part of the season and have not regretted it since.

I will use them at ice out for coho because we don't use dipsys much, usually just short cores that are pretty similar from 1-4 colors and A LOT of them:D

2 words for you,track system.you can change your setup to the season.

I have to agree with Jay on the tracks. It will allow you to create your own fishing style and play around with it and allow you to change up when you see some other set up you might like to work into the mix.

Best thing you can do is hitch a ride and see other rigs in action. Everyone fishes a little different and usually always pick up a little something from every strange trip i go on.

Great fish Jonas. I always look forward to your posts!

Welcome to GLF Ben. Enjoy!!
