Content everyone can enjoy! Thanks for sharing James and Pat!
You're welcome Bryan! Thanks for watching our video!
Great info. Super fun pattern.
I love how informative this episode was!
Thanks JT! We appreciate you checking out our video!
I am really enjoying your new format. Keep up the great work
Thanks Ed! We have 16 more episodes to come yet this summer!
Great show guys I'm heading up to Michigan and wanted to use Lead core v lead weight. And watched your video on how you showed to tie it and now I know a new trick thank you. Tight Lines and keep the shows coming.
Glad it was helpful!
Haha. Pat had one hammering on his rod when the video ended. Nice job fellas.
Thanks Tyler!
I saw you guys at the ramp
Great video! What type/brand of rod holders are those? I really like how long the arm is. Thanks!
Hi Jason, those are Scotty brand rod holders. Specifically the Scotty #429 Extended Gear Head Adapter with standard Scotty rod holder.
Again great episode and love the format. Last year I started playing with my down riggers on the North End of LOTWs to basically do the same. Looking forward to do it this year. Never have used lead core. Is either one better other that getting the cranks in their faces?
When we fish up on Lake of the woods we use both downriggers and leadcore. What we find is we catch more fish on the downriggers and bigger fish on the leadcore. If you can figure out why you are a much sharper angler then we are. After years of fishing them both at the same time on that body of water it almost always works out that way for us.
@@InDepthOutdoorsTV Well then more testing is needed! Will be picking up some leadcore!
These go angling series are awesome! I've never used leadcore so ? Is 6 or 7 feet per color. Then do I have to take into consideration the dive depth of the crank?
Hey Brent, glad you're loving the new series! The small cranks we typically use on leadcore just don't dive much at all on the short leaders. We might add a foot or so to the depths we're getting from the lead core and call it good. If you start running really long leaders or using large, deep diving crankbaits, you'll have to make the necessary adjustments in that situation.
Thank you. Keep up the good work!
What are your thoughts of using bottom bouncers with a 5 to 7 foot leader?
Hi Chris, you can definitely get a small crankbait deeper using a bottom bouncer. One thing I don't care for is that it is very hard to feel if the crankbait is running correctly. For that reason I'd use the bouncer in a pinch if no other option was available but it certainly would not be my first choice.
What are your opinions on lead core vs. down riggers.
Ive ran both. Downriggers give more options to presentation on any given day. Easy to snap in and drop down. Leadcore requires a rod devoted to leadcore. Can be a hassle.
Do you use a backer line on the reel before you put on your leadcore or do you do directly to the reel spoon with the leadcore
No backer. We spoiled up 6 colors of lead core on each reel and headed for the lake.
What size okuma reel was that and what type of rods you guys using?????

Thanks Brent. Hope you're having a good open water season!
InDepthOutdoorsTV thanks guys!
They walleyes don't care how well or poorly endowed you guys are James.
You ever seen the meme of a rabbit with a pancake on its head?

Great video! Might try leadcore to get my cranks down to 25ft. Now I just need to find a way to tie a leader to it!

@@InDepthOutdoorsTV I asked, and you delivered! Such a helpful video segment. Thanks again!
First comment gang
Ever use this for small mouth?
Not on purpose but we have accidentally caught a smallie or two when pulling leadcore.
