Lake O Help!

[cellwood]

Thought I should introduce myself. My name is Craig, been a member for a while... love this site, just don't post alot. My Dad and I are hitting Lake O tomorrow for the first time. We have all the gear just hoping for maybe a little advice on depth, speed, lures. Heading out of Bronte. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

While I haven't fished there in years I would doubt that anything has changed.

My favorite depths to run lines at this time of year are 27' and 35'. Don't know why it's just where I always started. Run out to about 70 FOW and troll out until you start finding fish (or head towards the pack). Make sure to run cheaters too (extra lures in the water and you cover more depths).

Trolling speed is usually in the 1.9 to 2.2 MPH range for me.

 

Good Luck and post how you do.

thanks drifter. We do a bunch of rigging on Erie, just never been out on the big lake. Figured someone must be fishing out there and the guys on here are always great with info. Thanks again.

I'd try a little faster, 2.5-3.0 mph, start looking for fish at 70 fow, work deeper if nessary, see where the other boats are...Watch your finder.
