Hell, you spent that on one reel of "copper" and three lures.

Shut it asshole I'm feeding my family

Sound like my wife

Too bad nobody really even likse salmon

I found em jehler. Running a uv wonderbread right now. Either wonderbread or watermelon I forget

My buddy was a bit weirded out when I yanked out the sardines

Fingers crossed they work for you, oil packed? You running them behind a Dipsy?

Hehe no pressure I love trying new shit. What's best rigger, copper or dipsey or don't matter?

We run them on dipsies more than anything else as they spin so much

My family was the same. Then I cooked it on a piece of foil that I poured some olive oil on. Then sprinkled a bunch of garlic-herb Italian seasoning (because it's all we had at the time which I thought would be even close to good) and grilled it. Everybody ate the hell out of it, and now that's the only way anyone ever wants it.

im exaggerating for effect a little. Fact is we all loved salmon but after the bounty last summer, we had all eatin so much of the damned stuff we were sick of it. Not anywhere near as good once it's been frozen, this year I think we are gonna give more away and try canning some

Give it to señor Bohstedt, they can the crap out of it, drives Jeff B nuts cuz his old man will stay up till 4am canning. Hard to sleep when the pressure knob is rattling around!

Thanks for the visual crut, I know the ole man isn't wearing pants for that

No cash prizes for this guy but got my Dad out in the boat and distributed a bunch of salmon to friends and family. We had electrical problems and had to fish without a fish finder and down speed/temp for the second day dragged a skipper for probably nine miles on the new hot bait. Didnt have a salmon break the 20 lb mark but lost two screamers almost immediately

we ran the secret bait behind a spin doctor to get the skipper and then the next day at the end of the day i put it on right behind a dipsy. friend recently painted the dipsy and its swivel wasnt working properly. You want to gues what happened there

Theres been two 30 pound kings caught here in the last couple days. I have a feeling we lost one in that class yesterday morning. Hit the port outside rigger, went under the boat and I figured he would break off on the trim tab, shot to the opposite side, cut off our starboard back rigger (got the bait back, it was still on the ball), under both starboard dipsys, under both starboard sinker poles, and got in the starboard lead core and got away. Fish had total command.

We had a 26 the other afternoon.

Not killing big numbers, but there's some slobberknocker kings out there this year.

The 26 came on a white with chrome scalite coyote and a howie bullfrog on a 100ft 12oz behing a big bird. Been a good setup.

Yup. It caught us one really tired skip king.

Nother #25 this afternoon. Only seven fish, but some bruisers.

He took a 90ft dipy to 490 before he stopped. I had to check my underpants.

green glow hot spot with a howie mirage frog.

when you say 90' Dipsy, you mean 90' of line out or 90' down?

90 foot of line out.

50 pound power pro, standard dipsy, standard dive ring, 2 setting

I have no idea how far they are down, my guess would be 35-40

When the riggers are getting bites 40-50, dipsys out 80-100

rigger bites 50-60 , dipsys out 100-120

rigger bites down 70 or deeper, dipsys out 130-150 or magnums come out and we put the big dive rings on them.

I don't trust the stupid dive charts, they can't take into account lake conditions, currents, drag from the flasher, drag from the sea lice, all that stuff. I just do what feels right.

same here, we run dipsies around 100 one side and 175 the other, guys over here are running them 275/375 all the time, I don't get it

Steelies we so 50ish

490 is a lot of line to haul in with all thy tackle

Glad to see the Quaker autocorrect is back.

Fuck
