Good afternoon. Looking to take granddaughters fishing. Thinking about the hot ponds. Would next weekend be a good time? Live in Bad Axe. Is it the water on the river side or on the bay side? Any other suggestions? 17' starcraft closed bow. Thanks. Keep up the videos, love them.
if i have exactly 100' of line on as you describe how to do it then lets say... i have fish 50' out i let out the correct line. then i get a snag and loose an unknown amount of line cause its still in the water and it broke off. do i just reel the broke off remainder back to the tip and reset the line counter on the reel every time or do i have to measure out 100' for every broken snag with unknown string lost?? or is it just as good to buy a rod attach line counter and let out 50' for the fish depth? then if i have a snag and loose unknown amounts of line no biggie, just reel it in and reset the line counter attached to the reel, like Berkley or a digital line counter? then im back to the exact feet needed at that time, thanks
With those divers, I didn’t think you needed the releases? I bought two OR36 size 3’s. I want to troll with my Hobie pedal kayak. Do I need those release clips? Which ones do I buy? Thx
Its not speed over ground, its speed thru the water, big difference. The whole point of this unit is to know how current is affecting your tackle at depth.
Video was 👍 nice fish. Getting ready to head out tomorow to catch some toads. Don’t wanna be that guy but I was a little surprised with the way old timer guide was handling all the fish.😂 I grew up in cooper and have some close friends that guide that section of river have never seen a guide handle fish like that.
Wow just seeing this out of the box ru-vid.comUgkxQr1yd4Zc6qJF-scTB6Zb9dQbVpviuRxB recommend I have yet to fish with this set up, but based on the first hands on appeal, I can tell this is going to change the way i pack and carry to a whole new level. If you fish like i do, you know the smaller and less stuff the better. I’ve added a photo of just some of my gear so you can see how serious i am about fishing.
The DNR drop the stock at Top-tobe I dont know spell it sorry but there is Pigeon river is right there and the fish can go to the river or stay in the lake. And Mullett lake is big gos too lake Huron its got a lock for boats.
Hey Mark...I know this is an older video but I am wondering. I live in MN and fish Mississippi P3 and 4. and Lake Vermilion. I have never seen or heard of anyone trolling spoons for eyes around here. Is this more of a great lakes presentation? Thanks for the video
Honestly I’ve never tried to pull spoons in the Mississippi River pools. All spoons work great here in the Great Lakes but my guess is that Crankbaits would work better for you. Thanks for reaching out! If you have more questions email me at mark@fishing411.net
My ? would be if you start at the end of your pole & calibrate the reel from there, what about the extra 5 ft. or so of line using a leader to the lure so as a worm harness. Is that figured in the equation or it could be 5 ft. more then the line counter starts off with.
Love 411 TV and the Romanak's scientific approach to fishing! No a "Look at Me catch Fish Show"!! I also love my back and know it's well worth the one time price of the seat. Looking forward to using in my boat! Thanks Mark!
You guys are either super ballsy or something else holding onto these walleye with crank baits hanging out of their mouth and you don’t even have fish grips or any way to make sure they don’t flop around and plant a hook in your finger.
When trolling in a lake I like to run a 4.0 mag lip hooks removed then about a 30in leader and a 2.0 or 2.5 behind it , works lile a champ ,the 4.0 acts as a diver and the fish attack the smaller plug
