[QUOTE="ORCUS DEMENS, post: 350106, member: 1779"] Since I have spent most of my time on big water, (Lake Erie) my learning curve is different then most here. Started with weight forward spinners, think Erie Dearies. This was in the 80's when the lake was very muddy. After zebra and then quagga mussels arrived the water cleared considerably. Tactics had to change. Switched to trolling, longlines with deep diving crankbaits like reef runners. Started learning how to run snap weights and small planar boards to get the lures out and away from the boat. Moved into dipsy divers and jet divers with worm harnesses or high speed spoons for summertime deep water fish. Bonus was the sporadic steelhead hit. Moved up here and started using slow death, bouncers and Weapons from back home (egg sinker in front of swivel and a 18" worm harness worked along bottom or mid level). Tossing some jigs and plastics. Enjoy fishing out of the kayak here but toothy fish are not allowed in the boat for obvious reasons. [/QUOTE]
