RE:Poor mans downrigger techniques.

Thanks a ton. Glad to hear this method isn't just a google legend. I would think that with some careful methods of setting the gear in the water slowly, and taking your time to let the line out, that tangling wouldn't be a problem. I'll have to look into these spreader bars. What will the weight loo...

Poor mans downrigger techniques.

Going trolling for kokes this weekend. I want to try using the 3 way swivel method. Main line on upper swivel, then the bottom swivel will be a 4 foot leader with a 2-4oz weight depending on depth, and the rear swivel will be a 4 foot leader with a dodger or cow bell. I have never tried this before ...

Lewis County lakes accessibility??

When I was growing up we would take monthly trips to Duck & Goose Lakes then later up to Nuwaukem Lakes. Are the forrest service roads still passable up to these lakes? I have not been up that way in over 10 years. Thinking about taking my old man and my son up there for three generations of trout f...

RE:Memorial Day Mess

We were at Bradley lake in Puyallup on Memorial Day.

I was shocked at how much of a mess the place was. I think I gave up counting how many wads of wasted line laying all over the place. Hell I was pulling it out of trees. Even recycled a few bobbers.
