we stay hot untill mid oct, than the f/g shut the lake down to gather eggs for 2 wks, than reopen for snagging. sep/oct is primo koke time

your right, on the turn, but i;m guessin it rises a mite on the streightaway.. Guess I will go with the Cabellas line

now your really screwing with my brain..I thought dodger "drag" tended to raise the terminal end a might. Your theory,, flat wide surface, more drag in the water, less sink. Am I off base again??.. Only been at this for 30 years or so... guess we never stop learning

thanks, so the world isn't flat.. And the best lead line is??.. You think the the 18 was running 7/ft per color ,and the 27 at 6/ft per color. Also missed on that score. always guessed about 5 to 5 1/2 per color. Thats why I use line counters with lead.. more precise

I would guess not one in 100 comply with that. I know I'm way off, thanks, good info

let me try.. 18 and 27 ,-----same core weight...27, thicker sheath for more strength,,--- thicker sheath holding higher...,--thinner(18lb,) was running deeper with both out to 160... If that's true, and I do see the theory, even if its against my logic, than that line was running under the fish...

That is exactly the OPPOSITE of what I assumed was going on. I thought the heavier line was running deeper.. I need to take a bit to get my head around what your saying.. The lighter line runs deeper??. I troll at 1.5 mph, at 160 out, where was I (Depth) in your opinion??

I can't wait to step up to the cosmetics counter at Dillards and ask the little cuties if I can try a lot of different colors. Hmmm,which one do you think best suits my eye color??. I really like this glow in the dark white.. Than,, off to Chik Fil A for a bite....

what paint??

need to find red back,white belly apex cant find in our advertisers, any ideas??

I go with whats working best, and last week at navajo it was lead(27 lb test, at 160 ft out) I use lc reels on the lead for precise control My second lead rig has18 lb test and i couldnt quite match the exact depth to the heavier line (27 lb cought 3 to 1) so I want to set up two the same and...

rerigging two lead lines and wondering what the best brand might be and why?? Does brand matter??

I build flashers with them ,ball trolls ,fenders, etc. Use 3,4 colo on my spinners

any sign it boogered them?? I can pick up 100 # 5 brass for 5 bucks..Dunno

any one ever use a slotted (june bug )slotted spinner blade.

how far between hooks, and do you like a sliding upper

Whatever spinner is hot usually takes a beating after three or four fish and when I feel any fray on the line, I rebuild them right on the boat. So I keep a good supply of tandem tied hooks on hand. I don't tie my own, but buy them in bulk and notice that many of the suppliers offer their rigs...

how much anchor line do you need (proper amount) to anchor in 60 ft of water??

At 1.5 mph with those line counter readings, your only down about15-20 ft. Figure about 5.5 ft down per color out,(10yds) And your only30 yds behind the boat

use it, you will quickly get a feel for what you might change. long leader off the lead to your snubber more leader, dodger and your rig.. I only use a snubber with lead and it seems to help dampen the non stretch, unyielding lead. good luck, let us know
