Geeze, that's some bad luck these days @fishin fool , but the report is appreciated nonetheless!61 to 64 ft of water, lots of knock offs but no fish, 1 sheepshead
That was the norm yesterday for us as well. They were hitting extremely light more so than I can ever remember. The day before they were inhaling our lures not so yesterday. It was an unusually weird experience so I know exactly where @fishin fool is coming from.That's surprising for you to have so many knockoffs without hooking up. How fast were you trolling? I don't remember ever having a knock off on Erie. Most of the time we have to manually release the riggers to check for fish.

On the days they are hitting that light I continue to troll at 2.5-2.7 but I change my bigger spoons and RRF’s and put on 2” Michigan stinger spoons I’ve got several different colours that often seems to get more fish hookedDipsies and riggers
interesting I'll have to try the smaller spoons.. Ive used them randomly with no success on them but i never thought to try them when the bite is really lightOn the days they are hitting that light I continue to troll at 2.5-2.7 but I change my bigger spoons and RRF’s and put on 2” Michigan stinger spoons I’ve got several different colours that often seems to get more fish hooked
Ya when it’s game on it pointless to use it normally just means you hook smaller fish but if the bite is light or mid day slowdown I switch up a few rods to the smaller spoonsinteresting I'll have to try the smaller spoons..
