Been Fishing since I was 5 yrs old; started salmon and walleye fishing since 1971; retired electrical engineer; worked at Commonwealth Associates and Consumers Energy in Jackson, MI. Fish out of St Joe and South Haven and in August go to Manistee. Usully take a few runs to Lac Erie in nroe in May and June also. Own 21' Grady White Adventure w/130HP Honda 4 stoke on it.

I have 4 rods w/copper also; 150' and 300' of 45# and 30#; for my 30# 300' rig I put about 60' of 30# mono in the middle so I use either 150' or 300'; the end leader is of course 30# mono and backing on the reel is 35# Cortland Spectron Black Spot (bk/wh) braided line. The best way to connect braid or mono to copper is to make a small loop at the end and solder it; then you can use any standard knot to connect braid or mono to your copper. Hope this helps.
