Cool

Big D. I'm curious. What do you use for the Salmon? I fish Lake Ontario for Salmon with downriggers and J-plugs with rattles... Usually yellow/green or red/black or green/black. with and without bucktails. Curious what you use for Salmon on Lake Superior. What depth do you normally catch them at?

It's been a slow season for me for salmon. Usually just 4 inch or 5 inch spoons no flasher. We use Dipsy divers too quite a bit. Have been catching them this year between 25 and 50 ft. Very slow this year.

I usually use a flasher about 3 feet in front of the plug. Seems to work well. Agree on the slow this year. Most of our catches are around 40 feet. running 10lb downrigger fish shaped weights, no paint.

Long story short, had to change head this summer due to bad exhaust valve. Did it with boat in water. Hard time getting head gaskets and intake gasket. Job went smoothly with a donor head.

Still a great looking boat and an awesome conversion. Sorry to hear about the head, glad it's fixed and ready to go.
