  1. if I'm running a full core and 150 copper, where does the copper go, inside or outside?

    If you're running the 45# copper then you can easily run it on the inside, leadcore on the outside board. 300' of lead will pass over 150' the copper on the way to the back of the boat.

    If you're running the lighter 32# copper... you'll want to keep them on opposite sides of the boat.

    The fish in my avatar came on 150' of 45# this summer. :thumb:

  2. 11inch white fishscale protroll/stinger flasher with a hypnotist rapture trolling fly on the shoot rigger down DEEP

    I was wondering when someone would throw out a Rapture fly! Love 'em! My favorite is a green hypnotist dragged behind a 8" mtn dew spin doctor.

  3. Dave, why don't you run any ace-hi plugs man? Those are deadly!

    To answer your original question, my spread is always evolving. Yeah sure, I've got my favorites. Everyone does. Light levels, weather, depth of fish, and some other factors will dictate what I run.

    I will always throw out an "unproven" bait just to experiment too. You never know what the next hot bait will be if you always run the same stuff.

    For me, fishing is all about experimentation.

  4. I don't mean to open a can of worms and start a reel debate, but it needs to be addressed.

    Have you considered upgrading to some Penn's, or Diawa's? A king will smoke your drag a lot harder than a walleye. I understand it may not be economical for your situation to upgrade, and that's completely understandable. Ebay or your local craigslist is a great way to pick up high quality reels on the cheap.

    Invest a little more now and save a bundle later when you don't have to outfit a second time a few years down the road.

  5. I'm a a sucker...I even bought that new berkley thing thinking it would do good at charging both sides of the lures at the same time. Doesn't work all that well.

    Same here. Don't waste your money on the new berkley version of a lure charger. I found that if its a double sided glow spoon, the side that is resting on the lights (the bottom) will only be charged with little spots where the spoon sat on the tiny LED's.

  6. SBob one more item for consideration: I replace the dacron line the trebles are on with 30# Brown Fireline, which allows custom setback of the rear treble. In shallow, the finicky Kings seem to appreciate the stealth mode of the Fireline over the very visible dacron and I definitely get more hits.

    Wow, that's interesting. I'll try that.
