5/10 trolling rattlesnake

[SPOONFEEDER]

2 of us managed 11 today on the se corner of rattlesnake by the white bouy. 40 trutrips back 35-50. 2.0-2.2 mph. Only caught then trolling east. Color didn't matter. Best fishing this year for us so far. Called it quits due to weather moving in.

Larry, I assume you were using Scorpion Stinger spoons today. How long are your leads? Do you have a color preference on your 40 TruTrips? Do you ever use Contender spoons? I'd like to see the solid finish that is on the Contender spoons put on the Stinger spoons. Lately, I have been spraying 4-5 coats of clear lacquer on them to hold the finish. It works quite well and saves me replacing the ones that are getting chewed a lot.

Leads were 35-50 ft. Today pulled monkey puke, hot today, pooh bear chartreuse, and jeager bomb. All scorpion size. Some I painted some Michigan stinger, some ole Pete's

Let me rephrase the question. What line are you using of the TruTrips and how long is that lead?

[SPOONFEEDER]

Behind diver is 6ft leader of 20lb trilene. Nothing fancy

Thanks. I'm running things the same way. Looks like Tuesday will be my next day on the lake. Give me a call if you are in the neighborhood.
