  1. Really nice to see Rielly score that OT winner lastnight.
  2. Kap is going to be a superstar. His speed is unreal.
  3. Yeah this November has sucked. One of my fav fishing months, not this year however.
  4. Ariens started up first pull this morning. Snow was pretty fluffy, got a good 12+ inches here where I am.
  5. Dave, a lot of those guys swear by temps these days as well. I wish I lived closer to Lake O to actually take advantage of one of those units. Just too expensive for the half dozen times I make it out there.
  6. Sometimes that's all it takes is dropping down 40-50ft over 100ft. All depends on the conditions. Some days you gotta go deeper, some days shallower. Some days it's all dipsy rips, some days they're all off the rigger. My biggest Lake O salmon (From a boat) came in August off PC. I let out about 100ft of line and was just setting the line in the release off the rigger when the fish ripped the line out of my hand. That lure was maybe 1-2ft down at most You just never know. And with the hardware we've got these days it's easy to fish down 150ft or even deeper without too many headaches. Not something I do, but a lot of guys swear by it.
  7. Drain fuel, run it dry, then put it away. Hasn't failed me yet.
  8. That thing is a tank!
  9. Are we talking boat speed or bait speed? If bait speed off the riggers, you'll need a FishHawk or something similar.
  10. Grease on gears, lube on bearings.
  11. It's just like any other pro sport. Even when you're not playing you've got eyes on you. No excuse, those guys should have known better.
  12. That sounds like a lot of fun!
  13. Salmon are everywhere.
  14. You'll want a big rod, 9ft + and a nice Tranx 500. You'll last a lot longer with that setup I'm sure
  15. Nice looking fish!
  16. Beauty work as always man. If I find a tip section for one of my Loomis IM6s, I'll have to send it over for some TLC.
  17. It will handle the fight, but the baits? That's going to be the problem unless you're tossing the smaller sized stuff.
  18. The Sens inch closer and closer to Quebec City, lol.
  19. Love have loved to join you man, but hockey + dinner I just didn't have the time Sunday.
  20. It won't let you download the app from the Play store if it's not compatible.

    Mepps

    I always replace the hooks on my Mepps when chasing steelhead with Owners.. Usually up one size as well.
  22. If they aren't wet inside, what's the point of opening them? I never open mine.
  23. Rock bass is an easy choice, especially on a 4wt
  24. Haven't touched the pin yet. Although the itch has started.
  25. It seems that everyone is catching muskie except me this season, lol. Nice fish!
