We caught 4 fish. 2 Lake Trout, 1 little King and 1 little Steelhead. Had all of our action between 75 and 82 FOW. All fish were caught on downriggers and > 40 feet down. No 2 fish on same lure. Caught 2 on different color Pro Kings. Great day to be on the lake.
I have a 17 ft Boston Whaler. You can see a picture of it on my profile. Notice it has 2 pole holders on the rails on each side and 8 total for the 4 downriggers.
I've read of much success of guys fishing in 16 FOW and less. What type of setups do you guys use? My problem has been getting 6 lines out. Can only use 2 of my 4 downriggers. 2 flat lines can be a disaster for tangle ups so I usually run only 1. I also can run 2 walleye boards so I'm at 5. Dipsy Divers would be close to boat I think. Any suggestions?
Anyone caught a big king yet? I've nothing bigger then about 6 lbs. Of my 18 fish this year, only 4 kings and all little. Used to love them 17# line burning spring Kings.
Wish I could remember what I had for breakfast yet alone what lure I caught what. Really appreciate the info on depth, colors, lures and speed. Need to do a better job on documenting what I catch.
