The michigan DNR web site has them all on file! http://www.michigan.gov/dnr/0,1607,7-153-10364_18958---,00.html

Nice job!!

I was looking at then rhino rods at frank's yesterday they have them teamed with a okuma 20 for 39.99 thats a heck of a setup Iliked the looks of them I also have the okuma pro classic rods and love them for walley inlines they are also real cheap at northwoods about the same price.

I am not buying the smelt thing everybody in their brother used to net smelt by the bickets in the 80's and 90's and now noone gets any sounds like somebody at the DNR put the wrong year on that report.

Other than that The walleye fishing in the last couple years have been phenominal and your right the alewife die off has helped that so.. I guess 6 ofone half dozen of the other.

Frank I do head to manistee on occasion but it cost so much money and 3 1/2 hours I could be to port sanilac in one hour or grindstone city in and hour and a half for just a one day fish and drive home. But as someone said I guess you need to adapt

There are more smelt in lake Huron now than ever I dont know where you got that info from but its definately wrong and If they were introduced to do a job and everyone liked them around why not try and keep them around it stems back to all the hundreds of invasive species brought in to the great lakes by the shipping industry salmon is the only good thing we ever got out of the deal!

Its quite a shame I miss salmon fishing badd!!!

I was thinking backwards good call I yeah I guess I would go with 45 copper!

Does anyone know right off hand how much cooper a okuma 45dx will hold (30 lb)

and also the same question for a diawa 47lc? thnks

Kinda just gives you a warm fuzzy feeling all over buying those licenses and paying the dnr to do nothing dont it!

I just put a set on my boat never new what I was mising they are bertsand they angle like pauly is talking about they are awesome no problems at all!!

Sticking spoons in the oven is the stupidest idea ive ever heard I just ruined 3 good spoons on 170 for 2 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are walleye fishermen and we run a 5 hp on 22 foot aluminum I am guessing your grady is about the same weight it would probally work for walleye because if there is any waves you would be going with them but I dont seeit as much for helping you get in if the big motor wont start!

That does look alot like the sharks one heck of a ball you got yourself!!

power pro is braid and is the best, I use the red and the green I see no differance in catch rates but I would think 30 on a diver would be light wouldnt it, mine are 50lb

Mono or flourocarbon not leader specific just a spool depends where you plan on using where your fishing.

with superline it should be alot deeper I would guess 30 ft down for a mono dipsy at 100 back.

They work awesome when using braided superlines only way to go!!

Big Jons are the way to go like everyone said theshock absorberis built in.

I think they would work great up high for steelies but I havenever tried them.

I do it both ways as well it started out as didnt have a fly to match the one that was catching fish but had a spoon and it out produced the fly and sometimes the spoon trailer will stomp all over the fly just depends..

silver streaks are awesome we used to use them alot on the east side when there was salmon in lake huron alot. Now that we fish the west side we use them over there and they work over there too the mettalics hold up better than the competiters.

When there used to be salmon in lake huron all we ever used was fly dodger combos on the dipsys and all the rest were streaks they are maderight in orchard lake, Mi very high quality spoon there mettalic spoons have real great paint to they seem to hold up nice than the stingers.

I am with maniac and priority 1 we run alotof boards this year in manistee I was running 8 boards because the boat we were on only had 2 downriggers I run the OR12's all spring and summer on the bay over here at speeds below 1.5 so going over there and running over 2 is awesome. I also had the church boards gave them away and got these offshores those church boards are made to run slow they are made by mark martin a pro walleye fishermen and I honestly didnt like them for that let alone going faster.

I second the sea ray its a good heavy boat, not the best for trailering probally but most glass boats arent.
