More good times at Edison

Joesaranti · September 2017

Headed out to Edison this morning on absolute glass conditions! Started trolling the deep divers and and a feather jig but all the deep divers were getting slimed with jellyfish. So I pulled all the divers out and put down a diving planer with a green spinning flasher and a glow in the dark spoon/hoochie. Immediately the rod goes off and it was a good size Jack then a small Barracuda then a big Spanish mac. I couldn't hardly get the boat back in gear before the rod went off again. I pulled the feather jig out and trolled the 1 rod around for the next hour at all different depths catching a Kingfish,Spanish mac. Blue runners, Jacks,even a couple of Lizard fish! Great day!!!

Boy do those conditions look great. Thanks for a very current report and what was working.

Hi Larry,
This was the rig I had caught all the fish on. It is a diving plane with a spinning flasher attached to the back and then about 7ft. of 40lb. fluoro attached to a glow in the dark green and pearl spoon/hoochie.

Hey that looks like the rigs we would use on lake Ontario for kings and steelhead. Hmm may have to dig into some of my dust covered fresh water tackle boxes.
Thanks for the tackle TIP.

Exactly! I use it in California for Kings.

My 40lb leader is getting bit off by cudas, kings and smacks. Can I be doing something wrong? It is not the knots or anything.

Yeah 40 lb. is definitely light for around here. It was what was on it from Salmon fishing. It seems to me though that I catch a
lot more fish without any wire even though I lose a lure once in a while.
