how is fishing in buffalo

[fishkiller16]

Hey Coach, I suggest, to be functional for the remainder of this season,

2@ 6color, and 2@ 8 color. .... It really depends on how many rods you typically run. You really don't need, IMO, to have a 5,6,7, etc. I just fished with 5's and 7's. The 7's started to fire regularly so I let out 50 - 75 ft. of braid backing on each of the 5 color. I calculate this got me an additional 8 - 12 ft on the 5 color, to equal the 7's. afterwards, the 5's fired too. We'll have to try to get out together so I can show you. CHEERS

Danley4 the reason your 5 colors started to fire was not the result of them diving deeper because the deepest a 5 color can dive without any weight is 30 ft at 1.5-2.0 mph, it is because the additional backer gave the lead core the proper action it needed. When using Braid for backer you will always have to let out more backer to achieve the proper action. Im not saying using braid is wrong because it works fine, but you almost always have to let out 30% or so more backer to accomplish what mono will do with less backer out. The fish are stacked from 10 ft down to almost the bottom with the thermocline not being set up yet due to all this wind we have been having. As Capt. Joe said even our 2 colors have been working well and they are only diving 10-12 feet down max. I would say about 75% of our fish are being caught in the top 25 feet of the water column our best setups have been 3 & 4 color with harnesses. Just my 2 cents on your post.
