      Blue Fox Spinners retrieved fast over weed beds underneath overhanging branches and trees. You will catch them.

  6. anybody ever ice fished lake superior in sault saint marie by any chance?

      The area around the Soo Has some great fishing, all depends on time of year.

      they are the primary chinook lure here in sault saint marie, never heard of them till i moved here

      Seanook

      How would you present them? Some kind of jigging pattern?

    4. jordanl

      jordanl

      toss them like a spoon, they flutter pretty nice actually, they are heavy so they get to the strike zone but a light reel in flutters them, and they come in glow so i figure it would be better then a salmon spoon when fishing places like port, just wondering is anybodys used them

  8. anybody on here use minnow traps? if so what do you bait them with? and where would be a good place to try to get about 20? pm me please if you dont want this public, all i can seem to get is gobies

  13. did i make a mistake? whats so bad about bushing centerpins?

    1. ChefMick

      ChefMick

      Its a good reel to start off with, and you will get fish. as time progresses and you drift next to someone with a more advanced reel you will notice that thier drift will take off 1st as the precision bearings are smoother.

  14. drove to sault saint marie today to do some school related things, so many places just before Detroit and in Michigan that i wanted to fish... maybe next time..

    1. smerchly

      smerchly

      lol i hear ya, driving on the highway i musta saw atleast 50 dear on the side of the road... dead but there are deer;)

      and there was one stream in-particular, i wanted to fish carp river, looked beautiful from the side of the highway, and upon some research, i see it has a great run of salmon steel and trout that is has very little pressure
