FISHNCARS
Bottom bouncers. Trolling or drifting and depending on speed try to obtain a 45* angle with your line to the bottom. Way more than 45* heavier bouncer. Way less than 45* lighter bouncer. This is ballpark. Let the bottom bouncer and harness out slowly and control its descent to the bottom to avoid tangles. When it hits the bottom close your bail and allow your speed to pick the bouncer up and move it along. 10-15 seconds. Open your bail once again and allow the bouncer to hit the bottom again. Close the bail and you are set just about right. Put the rod in a rod holder. If your depth changes or speed changes you will have to make adjustments. I do not drag the bouncer all over the place on the bottom.
Dipsys. Now don't get me wrong. I assume you are connecting the correct ring on the diver to your line and the correct ring to your bait.
Keep asking questions. I would meet with you however I have guests here for the weekend and on Monday I am having a total knee replacement. But when I get back up on my feet I will meet with you and we can sort some things out.

Actually I've been using big boards lately but I would say you should be trolling at 1.7 to 1.9 mph and let only about 120 out. Yes it depends on the size of the dipsy. And to tell you the truth I'm not sure on the size numbers of dipsy's I just know by looking at them. The other day we lost a whole set up dipsy and harness at Myers in 32 ft of water . ?? We went over that spot several times with that set up and nothing happened. I lost a torpedo diver -2 oz and harness at about the same time?? I didn't think that I was that deep. ???

Well learning curve just got bigger about 4 ft bigger got my work cut out prepping a 22 ft islander for my style of fishing. In a couple weeks we'll see how it works out. Should hopefully be a good new adventure. But leaving little boat fishable so walleyes are not safe still.

Sturgeon Point or the Catt.
I haven't been out in two weeks, and going out this weekend. Last time out did OK behind the windmills. Thinking of heading out of Sturgeon Point and making our way down to Meyers. A good place to start or should we try some where else? Thanks.
Also, what depth of water is everyone fishing?
Thanks

Good Fishing Yesterday
Yesterday morning (6/19/13) I went trolling out of the SBH. Went out the north passage and began trolling in 25 fow towards the red & green navigation buoys. I started at 8:15. 1st fish was a 19" eye in 28 fow. As I approached the red buoy, I boated a 22" one. So I backtracked and got none. Then I continued thru the buoys toward that (new ?) buoy with 2 orange balls on it. In 32 fow I hooked a nice 28" 7# eye. All this was between 8:15 and 10. I continued trolling out toward the big buoy in 42 fow and no more luck. There were several boats further out but I had to get back & I don't know if they were getting any. Worm harness and bottom bouncing.
Water temp 63.
Anyone else getting any ?

Fishncar here is a drawing of what happens to a dipsy when let out. I run all my dipsy's on a 2 setting and have never had a tangle. I run size 1 for everything except on Ontario I run mags with wire for salmon. [IMG]
