electrics
I have a minn on my 21 seapro walkaround mounted on my outdrive,i love it.when the water goes flat it is nice to stealthy troll .It does have an advantage when the fish are high and spooky.when waves are 2 foot or less i can troll against the waves max 2.6mph.when the waves kick up i use the minn with the waves and main motor against the waves.Mine is 55# 24 volt older model.batteries last 6-10 hours depending on setting.Its also great if you want a drift and the lake is flat when everyone else is out of luck you are moving and covering the water you want to at the crawl speed perfict fore erie deries and harnesses.

Spoon, your boat is 5K loaded and 6500 with crew? just how big a boy are you? I thought about getting a duel prop job for my I/O but I think I'll get auto pilot instead.

Just got back in town. I know it sounds like We are monsters. My fuel tank is 120 gallons. I figure 800 pounds or so for that and 4-5 guys and tackle puts us up there. So how has the fishing been?

Fish are getting smaller but there still here
Took my limit on Wen.
And Dad and I took our limit on Fri
Fishing out of Sterling state Park (Brest Bay) both days
The fish are 4-5 miles in front of the bay with the avg. size being 20-23"
Took them Trolling Reef runners deep

Yes they are
The hot color has been a new color called Glowby
It's a dark green with speck and a grey belly that glows
Not sure how much it glows? but it works on overcast and bright days as well
Been taking 75% of the fish on it (last 4 or 5 times out)
I just recieved the new Green Ghost (it glows as well)
I'll be trying that out to see if it's glowing part that they like.Last edited by Manxfishing; 06-30-2008 at 10:26 PM.

Cool.
Going to try for steelhead myself this year
I do have down riggers and dipsy's and between me and my Dad we have 100
or so spoons.
Do they hit cranks as well?
They look like a ball to catch.
Looking forward to seeing the video.

yes. Steelhead hit body baits too as well as meat rigs. It adds to the spread and offers variety to other species too.
