Spoonin Around

Singles ... nuff said

go with the 10 foot okumas ... love mine ... super light, dony leave your arms sore

Spin Doctors, Pro Trolls, An John King Flashers

i agree with champ less is better

during the full moons like to start around 8pm then ur coming back in by 12 or 1am

i use it for everything... from tip up leaders to my ultra light rods for panfish all of my walleye stuff jigging an trolling an leaders on all my salmon an steely stuff

i love em for riggers ... id set one up with 15lb for spoons ... an i agree with the short cores

thanks guys ... then im not gonna string up a 25-30 lb rod

i run 20lb on everything except i have one 15 rigger rod tied up for spoons ... and i run 12lb leaders on 3 color and up for spoons for high bows

i was just worried the 20lb might not handle the big flasher

I was just gonna get a general consensus on this

I normaly run 8 inch flashers (pro trolls, and spinys) plus i run a few 10 inch BTI from JK for meat rigs ... I run all of this on 20lb Floro never had a problem

now im gonna try running a pro troll 11inch next year with longer flies and twinkies

Do you think 20lb is good enough for this size flasher?

catalinas on the bluediamond roller rods with torpedo wire ... 2nd year no problems ... considering reversing my wire

best advice i can give someone is what works on some boats doesn't on others ... and fish go out of temp to feed

been runnin johns stuff for only one season ... no problems ... but i had good guidence

wouldn't cut one of his hooks off ... i got some editting to due in the off season to one of his rigs ... but it was my own fault ... full moon 12 am big king in the net ... snapped a hook trying to get it out in a hurry

We've had our probe for a few years, and we rarely use it anymore. Sure it's nice to know where the temp is at, but the fish don't really care on most days. They go where the food is at. It is nice to know the speed at the ball, but after you do it for a while, you'll be able to tell your speed based on the divers and/or rigger cables. It is a nice thing to have as a newbie, but it is definitely not needed IMO.

see i was pretty much gonna purchase mine for the speed at the ball but im pretty confident in watching my riggers and divers after the years but i've always wanted to know how far off i really was

i also fish without a probe but have decided that this winter i will b buying one ... i was also aiming at the x4 does anyone have anything against that unit?

y knot make T shirts right away

yes ... kewaunee/algoma wi

all the same people everywhere i go lol

i dont run a 12inch but those who do always advise running 30lb with a 12
