Flat line trolling for salmon in Lake Ontario

- Sliver-blue is the choice today as we troll for salmon using the American Smelt crankbaits. The key strategy today is to vary the speed by about 1mph and slowly troll in an s-pattern. The s-pattern changes the speed of the American Smelt crankbait which can make all the difference when trolling for salmon.

As always until next time, good luck and good fishin'!
Was out there this summer and went on two day trips on Lake Ontario and Michigan on the same day. Fishing was unbelievable!!
Met the nicest guy who had all the gear...we had to go deep to get to them in August.
Caught the biggest fish ever a Giant King...silver torpedo is my nickname for these fish!!
You guys are very fortunate to have a World Class fishery in your backyard!!
Perfect timing. Got my breakfast and ready for salmon videos!! Need to order my stingeye!
Looks like a blast…can’t wait to get back out there. Keep the videos coming!
The greatest to ever do it. Been watching these videos since 6th grade
wow....thanks for tuning in and hope you enjoy many great days of fishing in 2022 :)
That’s a great start !
Wow
I loved this one !
I love how he never has a big enough net LOL
Nice! Would've loved to see those jumps!
Awesome fish!
One day Antonio is going to come back to the dock by himself 😄😉
you're a good fisherman
Good catch 🤩
Great vid , thought you all on the west coast ? You trailer to Ontario ?
Always great video!! You mind what snap swivel are you using? Thanks
We were using a size #3 duo-lock snap only (without swivel). The Thundermist snap measures about 3/4" long and has a 99 lb. capacity. Thanks & good fishing!
@@thundermistlures thank you much
Parabéns top 🐟🐟🐟
Just wondering what size reel Antonio is using. He ran out of line quickly. Perhaps a 3000 size reel would be better for salmon and lake trout?
are they gonna start running in lake erie? also have you tried burt dam for big salmon
salmon fishing is much better on lake ontario than Lake Erie and I have not fished burt dam, but I know it's a great spot and very popular :)
this wheelchair bound gal dreams of fishing with you some day !
Could you guys do a salmon jigging video? I love jigging for kings in my area, but our kings are gone out of the saltwater now
What time of year is this video from?
hi, what time of the year do you flat line trolling in lake O? i did that a few times (Sept.2023 30-50 fow )with no success.
thank you. love your videos btw.
We like to troll in April and May or in December :)
Post says Sept however your attire suggests a different time. When were you out there? i've never gone salmon fishing but would like to know the best times to go.
We were out in the spring - best months for shallow water fishing are April and May
@@CookingwiththeCoias thanks
It would be cool if you attached the date of recording. Helps me know when to be out doing what your doing in my neck of the woods
Hey, I am a boat less angler myself and plan on buying a boat in future but I suggest you stay in touch with fishing charters and captains in your area. Not sure where you're located but if you are in the Niagara region. I highly suggest you stay in touch with Grimsby Tackle, Like them on their FB page. contact them if and when you need to. They will give you constant updates of when specific species are in the lake or rivers and the depth of water to be fishing to locate some nice salmon. I went Salmon Fishing on Boat this past spring and my good god the fish there is out of this world. It is the best tasting Salmon and the Fish is so nice. I suggest you go early in the morning to catch the morning bite. Important to keep in touch with local charters and get up to date fishing reports. have fun
Must be early season. Later in summer you need to get down deep
would this work if i were to use braid to a Mono leader?
Use braid and Fluro Leader. Its better combination, Flurocarbon Leader are less visible to Fish compared to Mono
Wildbill outdoor adventures suggested I contact you about my fishing problems. I'm in Texas. Catfishing from a dock. No boat. Anyway. I just have a regular Catfish rod and a regular reel. I am using a 2 ounce sinker. And number 6 circle hook on a double hook leader set up that you buy from the tackle store. Ok.Now the lake I'm fishing in is very large. I can't cast far enough to get to the bigger fish. I do have 1 surf rod that I can cast a bit further, but I need a heavier weight I think. And due to the small fish, I loose most of the bait. I'm using worms as there are no live shad available and I don't have any type of cut bait. Can you help me? I think I need a better type of hook for the worms or maybe a thinner circle hook. Thank you
Hello, for longer casts consider using braided line with a mono (or fluorocarbon) leader, and/or a larger reel, longer rod, heavier sinker. If using mono line, go as light as possible, as the smaller line diameter will get you more distance. To avoid smaller fish, suggest to don't use worms - use minnows, or experiment with corn. For channel cats, use fresh livers in a pocket (.ie nylon stocking, or Thundermist Bait Pocket), alternatively you can dry-out the livers a bit (to a leathery feel), so they will stay on hook better. You can bump-up the hook size if you are targeting larger fish...Thundermist has pre-rigged T-Turn Bait Rigs as well, with a variety of choices. Hope this helps, thanks and good fishing!
Ivo, been watching for the past 2 years. Love your knowledge and videos. Just 1 viewers opinion here, the subtitles are annoying and not complete with the words you and antonio were saying.
Also your crew should try to edit and upload within the same month you went fishing. Relate to real time and the viewers.. Thanks
Isn’t this fish too big to eat?
No
Why on earth would you go out Salmon fishing without a Salmon Net ?????
😳
Because Ivo loves his Bass Net; LOL
