  1. Thanks for the help everyone!

     

    Jigging (if you know where the fish are). Try a dropshot rig with a heavy tube jig on the bottom and a smaller bait - white flukes work - about 2-3' above the tube jig.

     

    The second trolling method I use is a FishSeeker. Kind of like a Dipsy diver, it is very good at targetting certain depths by using a series of holes that adjust the angle of dive. It flips over when a fish hits, so there is no drag while landing a fish. I found mine at BPS.

     

     

    I think im going to try both these out.

     

    For the Fishseeker what lures should i use?

  2. August... I'd say find 100 FOW and start jigging, if you don't wanna downrig or use steel line. Another way would be a 4 ounce + weight on a three way swivel and troll.

     

    What lures should i use to jig?

     

     

    As well you can use a dipsey diver and wire line,or another awesome method is to use segmented leadcore !!!! :whistling: many trout have been taken with those 2 ways !!! and its not too expensive to rig yourself up a rod & reel that can handle either set-up !!!! cheers :thumbsup_anim::Gonefishing:

     

    Could i use a 7'6" Heavy action rod for dipsy divers?

     

     

     

    Also i think the lake is only goes down to 60 feet.

     

     

     

    Thanks for the help so far guys! :thumbsup_anim:

  3. Hi everyone,

     

    I'm thinking ahead towards the summer when i get to spend a week at my uncles cottage in August. I think im going try to

     

    get some trout (Lakers, Brookies, Rainbows, and even some Splake) this year. What techniques are out there instead of

     

    using a downrigger. (I'll be fishing out of a 12' Jon boat with a 3 hp Johnson on the back.)

     

     

     

    Thanks,

  4. Hello,

     

    Hope everybody had a great Christmas!

     

    I've been looking at buying a new baitcasting combo for spinnerbaits lately and have been looking at some Daiwa rods and reels.

     

    Any of you guys have used these?

     

    Daiwa Tierra Rod

     

    Id get the 7' Med. Heavy rod.

     

    Daiwa Exceler

     

    Any opinions on the would be great.

     

    Or if you have any other suggestions on a rod and reel combo for less then $150 that would also be great.

     

    Thanks a lot,
