Storing a three way once it is out of the water also presents a challenge.

Hey, I took two - one pound downrigger weights one year. Complete with the release clips and flashers... Lesson learned although figuring/imagioning how that would work was enjoyable, quality time for me back then.


What's a snap weight? The rubber twisty things?


Personally, I'm not fond laker meat although I like the social aspect of stuffing and baking. It's like bringing the main course and a dish to pass.

These days I try to avoid catching lakers. Last trip, I was trolling a contour ... didn't want to waste time covering a walleyeless looking bay ... so I made a beeline for the next point. I marked fish (or something) at 40' in 60' of water just before the usual tap, tap, tap - laker on. I was trolling a 20' contour and the fish was released none the worse for wear. I don't think I even saw bubbles before pulling it up to be sure what it was before attempting to let it spit a barbless treble.
