  1. 1 brown on mixed veggie spoon on rigger. 1 brown on mono board, perch rapala 1 laker on 3 color dbl. orange crush 1 laker on rigger, bloody nose spoon 1 salmon on green thin fin, mono board. All fish between 10-15 FOW
  2. Went out of P. Sheldon Sunday... 5-5 2 browns 2 lake trout 1 small throwback salmon of some sort. Stayed south of the pier all day.
  3. If you're still in Rockford, take a drive over to the Outdoorsman in Jenison. They carry the bloodrun at a very fair/good price. I would spool a 300' of 45# for your setup, for the ports mentioned.
  4. Fine choice either way. Don't let the 45# scare you though, you are not building a watch, you are deploying heavy line. The first year I/we ran 45# copper I saw zero tangles/birds nest on the boat. If I can do it......
  5. I bought mine at The Outdoorsmen in Jenison last year. At the time the prices were much, much better than you'll find on the internet too.
  6. Always a lot of talk how easier it is to run 30# copper. I'm sure it is but in my opinion don't let the 45# scare you. It's really not hard to handle, even for someone new to copper. I picked up a bulk spool of 45# blood run last year and we back it with 30# mono on 55 convectors. It was my first time running copper and besides a a few kinks (fixed with a spro swivel, right on the water) I had no problems learning and running the stuff.
  7. 2011 Spoons- MS Flounder pounder, DW dbl orange crush, DW Lemon Ice, Michigan & green dolphins. Plugs- Non existent plug bite this year for us Flashers- 8" mt. dew with crush glow tape & 8" white crush Flies- BW HomoSezWhat. Paired with any flasher
  8. "haywire twist" There is a video of it on this page. http://www.fishdoctorcharters.com/template.tpl?selector=video The doubling thru the swivel is not needed imo.
  9. We use the Spro 50# swivels. Never had a problem + quick fix on the water if you get kinks.. ** We tie a haywire twist with copper then use shrink tube so the end doesn't fray. Then whatever knot you prefer on the other side with your mono.
