Karl, it was down my way but for the last two years nsp has given me the best fishing ( 3 in one day last year with a ten pounder given to Bassmaster on the way home for his din din). I troll two Big Jon Mini downriggers with 4 pound balls. ( no wise cracks). I use five and a half foot ultralights with six pound Fireline to a swivel then four feet of six pound Seaguar Fluorocarbon, I snell a size 8 Gamakatzu octopus two inches ahead of a size twelve treble onto which goes a live medium shiner, the size 8 Gami goes thru a nostril and the treble up hi anal vent. (ouch) I troll those down 6 to 12 feet for salmon and 10 to 35 feet down for trout depending on the time of day.
Ice fishing I use tip ups spooled with 18 pound test squidding line to a swivel then 8 feet of the six pound fluoro and a single size 8 Gami Octopus. Medium shiners hooked in the back dorsal down no more than six feet under the ice. I carry a samll specially made ice gaff for getting the bigger ones outa the hole. 99% go back in after landing. Me and Stiffy, LaFleur and Doc Crago got 12 and dropped sevral more in two days at NSP a couple years ago.
