Quinte Fishing

Over the past couple of years I have received numerous PMs and text messages about rigging for salmon and walleye for the Big Lake. I have done some presentations at the CLOSA meetings about the techniques.

I am thinking about doing a workshop in April and demonstrating the different techniques and the rigging knots required to prevent tackle loss and failure. I will also answer all questions about rigging.

1) - the best leadcore knots and what backing to use.
2) - copper knots and how to measure different lengths of copper and when to use it.
3) - wire line knots, dipsey diver techniques and what settings to use. Best colors to use.
what size wire is best, 20, 30, 40, or 45 pound wire. 7 or 19 strand ???
4) - Cut bait (herring strips) techniques. How to tune the rig for optimum production. Hook size and
the rig length. Hot to make your own Twinkie (3 fly) rigs.
5) - M. C. Rocket presentations. How to tune the Rocket. I have had many inquirers that anglers
have tried them and have had no luck. They haven't figured out how to get the proper roll.
6) - Flasher fly techniques. lead length the the proper line to use rigging your own.
Lead length changes through out the season.
7) - Tying snell knots and the sliding snell.

Like I said we will answer any questions. I am thinking April 23rd or 24th. Probably in my back yard east of Wellington. Indicate which day and whether morning or afternoon would be best.
