CAC

2 riggers, with 4 lead core for boards, plus 2 divers. I frequently have the 2 riggers, 2 divers and two leadcore going. Today it was the rggers and 4 leadcores - two five color, a two color and three color. All my fish came on the five colors. You need to gradually collect more rods and reels than you can use at once so that you will have what you need when the occasion arises.

Thanks for such a helpful post. One of us should do similar tests on braid.

Way to go Adam!

Thanks for the report Matt. You did well for the frist trip out.

Thanks for the report. Happy to hear that the flea flicker line is working for you.

WTG Dave. Sounds like you coped well with the proverbial Chinese Fire Drill. I wish you luck with your electronics problem.

Great question! I look forward to the responses you will receive. I ususually go to a favorite depth for the time of year, put the rods out and look for the fish.

Good Job dealing with the mishaps! I can't imagine the challenge of getting these fish in the boat without a net.

Thank you!!!! I presently have a new favorite website! Thank you so much. Now we have to convince someone in Muskegon to do this.

I Love my Lund! I looked at them all before buying about five years ago. The Starcraft was my second choice. I get 3/4 a gallon per hour trolling with the 60 hp. 4 stroke. I wish I would have got the 90 hp.

Thanks for the detailed report. I bet it was beautiful out there today.

WTG! Great trip with fihing and hockey-what a combination!

Great fish!

I typically run 2 riggers, 2 dispseys - one high one low- and two lead cores early in the day. Sometimes I put out a high line instead of one of the riggers early in the morning. As it gets later in the morning the 5 color often picks up a steelhead.

Great job Ken! Good way to start the season.

The improved clinch is a sound knot if wetted adequately. I use big game 20 and haven't lost any gear in three years.

I have wondered too if it would work when we find a large ball of baitfish out in the lake. Has anyone tried it there?

Even if they took their fishing licenses away for life you can "bet" they would be out there doing it again in short order. That's what criminals do, they disregard laws. Thanks to the DNRE for at least sending a ripple into the poaching pond.

Thanks for the report Jim, and good job. I can't help with the cable question. I hope someone answers it.

Thanks for the report. Good luck next week. I can't wait to get out!

WTG! And what a "King" size suprise you got too.

WTG and thanks for the video.

WTG Terry! Thanks for the inspiring post. I get my boat Tuesday, it won't be long now.

WTG - I share Nailer's jealousy! I can't wait to get out.

I hope to go for browns this year too. I look forward to learning more about fishing browns out of Muskegon too. I hope you get some helpful response to your post Flyboy.
