yeah it has 3 of my shark weights lol

Haha thank you! No fancy camera work here just fishing

I agree man, but that thing is stuck in there good. Last time I took it out I had to lube it and use an oil filter wrench to get it out. So I've accepted it as a hazard since I only go solo once in awhile.

These are the 9' okuma glt diver rods. I have a couple 10' I use wire on, they are a lot beefier than the 9' tho.

Wellington, East end canadian side

Tell us you have never really trolled without telling us lol

Sorry buddy, but I own a boat in Alaska. Big kings in open water are very tough. Fish over 30 should be handled very carefully. No lines in the water. My opinion.

2.5 - 3 mph

Thanks! Haha, you nailed it. It certainly is a feeling that can only be experienced by solo fishing on big water!

Yep 2016 Rebel 1650. I have the regular 60 4S Merc. When I'm dragging a bunch of salmon gear it will get down to 1.8 but if I'm walleye fishing usually 1.9 - 2mph. I'll use bags when I need slower. Do you have the troll control RPM button? I've heard that will get it down a bit.

@@plattinumfishing I'm going to look into the troll control. Either way, the bags work, they're just a pain sometimes. I use autopilot on the bow mount to steer.

@@jello7281 for sure. How do you like steering with autopilot? That would be my next big upgrade. It's a real pain with no wheel man solo fishing in the wind!

@@plattinumfishing it makes things so much easier! If I troll worm harnesses for walleye, I just use the minkota and leave the main motor off. 80lb Terrova with two lithium batteries. I'd suggest lithium for the reduced weight. I had two group 27 lead acid battieres and it made the boat too bow heavy. 130lbs vs 48lbs

Thanks! The limit for any of the pacific salmon species is 5 per person with a sportfishing license in Ontario.

Wow, that's killer, and here we're stuck with a limit of 2 in California.

@@marchatescheese it definitely helps fill the smoker! Lol. But hey you got the true natural ocean run salmon! Ours wouldn't even be here if it wasn't for stocking.

Generally between 2.4 to 2.8 mph I have the most success. There is a lot if underwater current out there so most guys have a fish hawk that will tell you the speed down at the ball. If not and your running oldschool with 10lb balls, try and keep the angle of your rigger cable slighty under 45° out from vertical (unless fishing deeper than 70ft they will start to stretch way out with blowback)

@@plattinumfishing I am Fishing from my kayak And I use the torpedos If you know what they are For down rigged, In my setup I was missing the flasher Maybe there was a problem So I'm going to try again and gonna buy some flashers and see what happened.

@@CubanoArrebato I have a 10lb torpedo. I would try to keep your speed up around 2.5mph if you can. If you see your cable stretching way back then slow down a bit. If they are hanging straight down speed it up. I only use flashers with meat and Flys. No need for a flasher if you're running spoons

@@plattinumfishing wow Thank you so much and yeah I noticed in some time I was spending too much and I see the wire too far back Thank you for the tip

The ones up front? It's a Berkley triple tube rod rack.

Thanks! It put up a hell of a fight, I thought it would of broke 25 for sure but it was a bit short of 24lb

Thanks man! Nothing fancy just fishing!

Ya they run up all the major rivers in the fall. You can get them out in the lake almost year round (usually only summer on my end) and then come early fall they start running up the rivers.

Lol thanks. It was a bit windy for the little lund that day. Had a hard time getting the fish to cooperate in net range.

Ya I'm not much of a KZbinr lol. Have a hard time having a conversation with a camera. This was 220 back on braid with dipsy on 3 setting. Rigger down 60. Moonshine spoons. Thanks!!

220 back on a 3 setting, so how deep would that be? And how long are your leaders to your moonshine spoon?

It's on the wish list!

Thanks buddy!

Wellington, it's North shore, Eastern basin

Sure is! Thanks Mike!

For the Dipsy rod holders I'm using the brocraft 45° track mounts. You can get them off Amazon. They have an adjustable screw/knob on the bottom side which you can adjust tight to your gunnel. Then they are rock solid with no flex, great design.

There's at least 1! Lol. This was on the 12th

@@plattinumfishing Yeah I figured it was before these hurricane winds set in judging by the water lol

Walleye are definitely known for their tendency to be difficult to catch. Using all kinds of finess tactics to produce some light bites when the going is tough, but they can also be vicious hunters that will hit almost anything when the bite window is happening. Great lakes and big water walleye are much easier in my opinion. It requires more equipment but it's a whole other level of walleye fishing. They're big, there's more of them and they are willing to chase a bait down and crush it as seen in this video.

@@plattinumfishing went fishing this weekend with my dad and brother and the little walleye (they were silver, not dark green and seldom over 3lbs) they were going crazy for any soft plastic swim baits we had. (Mimic minnows by northland tackle were their faves) I have since changed my low opinion of walleye. 😊 thanks for the awesome videos!

@@diaryofagoat-lass1023 that's awesome to hear!
