Take the techniques and tips and apply them to the water you are fishing. I don't want to know your hot spot, and I sure as hell will not be divulging mine, especially on the inter web.

If you have to ask whether to name the lake you already know the answer.

I love everything about this vise except the base. I removed the base plate, filled it with #7 lead shot and reattached the base plate. I now love everything about my stonfo! I tie everything rotary style.

Full disclosure, I am a Lowrance guy. I have two 5 inch elites that still function as they should. I upgraded to a 7 inch elite FS touch screen. I didn't think I would like the touch screen, I was wrong, the touch screen works great. I have played around with other sounders. I find the...

Here on Vancouver island, 2 months without fishing is extremely rare.

https://leaptrend.com/blogs/news/should-i-charge-lifepo4-to-100 Just another article that discusses the reasons why you should not charge your LiFePO4 battery to 100% on a regular basis. I am 4 years in with what appears to me to be identical performance parameters with my Dakota 100ah...

You must have very large beads. My blobs are tied with 7/64 or 1/8 beads and the small size ketchum release tool works just fine. I have removed blobs where all I can see is the bead when looking down the throat of the fish.

For deeply hooked fish these work great ( ketchum release tool ). Slide the line in the slot, slide tool down to the hook, push on the hook then pull out. I took out a power bait/ worm hook out of a fish I caught on a chironomid the other day where all I could see was the eye of the hook...

You need to work with your Alaskan buddies in the SE Alaska fishery that targets non Alaskan salmon heading to rivers as far south as California. The Canadian troll fishery is almost closed now.
