For the last ten years I've been muskie fishing on St. Clair & Salmon fishing on Ontario & never once made an Erie/walleye trip. I would like to give it a try so I was hoping to get a little help? I saw the techniques forum but there is so much more activity here. I plan on launching from Catawba will run 6-8 lines so I was wondering how best to set up? I have 4 downriggers but it doesn't seem like many people use them in the western basin? If I were to go today & could run 6 lines I would run two downriggers with spoons or shallow diving cranks, two dipsys with spoons/shallow cranks & jets with spoons off the planer boards? Since I don't know what I'm doing I would try a little of everything & go from there? Am I even in the ball park???

When people say stingers do they mean the standard size or the 2.25" Scorpion size?

Are water fleas ever an issue with braid dipsys?

Thanks In Advance
