[quote wiperhunter2]Yes, not catching a lot on every trip but we caught 8 on Tues and two yesterday. KCT=Kokanee Creek tackle, the second pic above that Randy posted was one of the ones I've been having good luck with. Several stores in this area carry them, just not Sportsmans or Cabela's. Anglers Den has them, Smith & Edwards and Wayngards, other than that you have to get them on line. Not sure why but some folks think you lose some of the fight of a fish by using lead core line but nothing is farther from the truth, Wipers kick butt no matter what line you use, Those big 22" fish posted above made five or more hard runs, I've had several hit so hard lately that they broke my line and doubled over my pole. When those big boys come to lunch you better be ready with some heavy gear, that's all I can say. Murico has been catching the most wipers this year and he does it by covering water, looking for active fish. I spend time looking for those active fish too, then I keep going over that spot where the first fish is caught, trying to catch another. Tues that worked, not so well on Fri but that's fishing.[/quote]

It does feel like I have trolled the whole lake, but that comes with going 13 times this year. The tip I have, but has already been said... don't be afraid to keep going until you hit a wiper. Then work that area for awhile. If you don't get another one within awhile, move on.
