  1. Quick question for all the meat heads out there. I've ran meat before but only the strips. A buddy gave me some alewives he caught off the pier, I put them in the borax/kosher salt brine. My question is how should I run these? Just pin the alewive and go? Or cut the head off and clean out the entrails then pin em like on John Kings website?
  2. Hi quick question for anybody that can help. I'm setting up a new copper rig today and I want to try the shrink tubing over my albright knot. Question is how much heat do you guys use? Indirect flame? Hair dryer? I just cringe at the thought of using to much heat and weakening my backer. Thanks
  3. Set lines at 9:30 by the sparkplug and ended up by buoy 1, caught 20+ fish with only 7 keepers and many short strikes all colors seemed to work with antifreeze and cedarpoint being the best. 1 oz keelsinkers 25-40 back and 3oz BB. Great day on the water with my dad and brother.
  4. Nice job! Heading over that way tomorrow to take my dad fishing. Just not sure if I should go to linwood or drive further to Au Gres? Did you just head straight out till you hit the deep water or start further north or south? What size BB?
  5. Yes worked great with my 300 copper with braid backer no double wrap. (it was only a 2 ft chop)
  6. Set lines just after noon and fished till 5:30 or so, fished from 95-120 going 4-4 Rigger down 67 with a SS Kato mag 8lb king Fixed slidder 10ft above the rigger down 67 blue chilly willy 4lb steelhead Wirediver back 150 on 2 JK smurf meatrig 15lb king Rigger down 67 SS Kato 9lb king ran cores and copper also with no luck.
  7. Or Linwood beach marina.....Northport is fine but make sure they put you on a good dock and top off your fuel tanks because some of there older docks are pretty rickety and the gas dock has real poor hours.
  8. I have a 1990 sabre with a 4.3 merc alpha 1 and my set up has a switch on the shifter handle to trim out your ride and a switch on the base of the shifted handle that says "trailer" that will take it up the rest of the way.
  9. If your still looking for a rider I would be very interested for Sun morning

  10. Sweet ride your going to love the Crestliner.
  11. Yep Love em. I like the ability to remove/move my rodholders, cupholders, and tool holder whenever I want.
  12. That's a beauty Bobby! Thanks for having time to answer all my little questions. Do you have a price list for your rocket launchers? or are they all custom? Might be in the market in the future. Mike
  13. Are you a Kelloggs worker? I work for kelloggs here in Grand Rapids...thats why my boat is named Special K kinda a inside joke for the guys I work with plus my wife is named Kathy so i can getr away with it!

  14. I have a 1990 Sabre walk around, basically the same as the Eagle ....4.3 mercruiser great boat alot of good storage...any questions just ask

  15. You might want to check into a Crestliner Sabre, very similar boat but no rivets hull is all welded. Of course Im biased but I like the Crestliner alittle better, its a nice deep boat and has good storage for all your fishing gear.
  16. Just picked up a Saltist 50HA for my 300 copper the 6.4:1 gear ratio caught my attention plus "Santa Claus" was buying! I have used SG 47s and some AccuDepth 47s for my riggers no complaints here for alot less cash.
  17. what the heck does the "kato" spoon look like? I tried the Wolverine tackle website and could not find a pic??
  18. Does anybody know which tackle shops handle Blood Run copper and wire in the Grand Rapids area?
  19. JK Krystal Killer off a rigger all day long.
  20. I usually fish Muskegon and a trip or 2 to Ludington if that makes a difference.
  21. Looking at adding some copper to my spread next year. If you could only have 1 copper set-up what would it be?? I'm thinking or buying a 300, but I hear alot about 200s?? Dosen't a 200 go about as deep as a full core? Thanks Mike
