I go out of point breeze on Ontario spoons and j plugs are the ticket soon your more than welcome to tag along if ya want we can go out in my boat or sure my buddy would take us with him. I am sure he is laughing as he reads this. All he ever asks for is gas money to offset cost and it's fair in my book. Let me know if your untreated we will set it up. I am like 34 miles from buff and 24 miles from Ontario it takes like 40 minutes from downtown towing boat to my house.

Ah, so you go out on Ontario for the kings. I like to eat the fish I catch so have been restricting my outtings to Erie, where I am told there are some coho and the odd chinook, but widely dispersed. Thanks for the invite! I may take you up on it.

dipseys vs down riggers
This time of year (late summer) both work. I'm catching equal amounts of fish on big dipseys and down riggers 50 to 65 feet down on 8 pound balls.
I run 2 down riggers behind the boat and 2 big dipseys set on 3 to get separation. You don't need braid. I run 20 pound mono on my dipseys and hardly ever lose a fish. I like the mono because you can still use the same rod on planer boards and still get it to release. Spider wire tends to slip in releases.
Lead core also works very well but you need to add snap weights when the fish are really deep. I caught a 9 pound walleye Saturday on down rigger with large northern king spoon at 2.25 MPH looking for steelhead. Rigger was 62 feet down.
When I raised it to 50 feet to match a mark on the graph, the fish hit it hard.
I'm not fishing boards at all until the water cools down. I have a sub troll and the water is 75 degrees all the way to the bottom in front of Dunkirk in 100 feet of water.
