NFN Salmon Shakedown 2023 Lake Michigan Fishing 

Yes I did with Cody. We caught fish but nothing big enough to place. I took video so if I get some time to edit ill post it.

I don't mind my carpet (feels more comfortable to me) so it's not a priority. Maybe I'll do it in the future.

I use legacy mode. Advanced wants to turn left all the time. Good luck

@@NoFishNicksAdventures Got it! Thanks Nick.

We use 24" lead on the 8" paddle.

They work ok but the bigger Ziggy board style works much better. The walleye board does not do well with a 300 but I have used it. Good luck

8 to 9ft on this adventure

Back of the boat on a portable transom mount minn kota. I added a panopics P31 transducer.

Thank you

Hi Nick, so you have the PS 31 pointing out behind the boat? Can you see your dipsy divers with it?

@@Mark-dj5qf i watched them go out but have not used it enough to really dial them in yet.

You may have to increase your sensitivity, 1 or 2% to dial in the Dipsys. Plus slight rotation in the transducer will help you pick them up. Also depends upon how many feet of line out before they go out of your view. The PS 31 will pick up fish that are not in the 2D cone. The more you watch the PS 31 screen, the more useful it becomes. It’s really a hoot to call which downrigger is going to get bit! Good luck in the KD.

I ran one for my Starboard high dipsy on the Wednesday evening but the regular ones were getting hit so It didn't get back into the mix on Thursday morning. I'll be running them a lot during the KD next week

@@NoFishNicksAdventures I have been running them after watching your videos for several years. Last weekend, I broke one off at the knot on my wire rigger, and lost a nice fish, as well as my FF... What are using to tie your knots leaders with? I changed mine to 50# mono, slipped through some Leadcore jacket, but still a little concerned about another break off. It appears that my Roller rod struggles a little more to pass the knot, than my braid rods. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

@@gordonanderson2277 latest version is 80# hollowcore line with the leader mono/flourocoat line inside. Willis knot on the leader side and a Alberto knot on the rod side. Dropper loop for the loop. No breaks yet and with the mono inside the braid it keeps the loop open for you. I do have a special needle to get the mono through the hollowcore that makes it easy.

8-9 feet on regular divers. 50 feet on SWD
