Rattle wheel set ups (Meant rattle reel) lol
Permalink  
 


Finally going to make it up for the big tourney this week-end.  Friend got a new wheel-house and we are excited to catch some fish.

Want to put some walleyes on the ice as well.  Anyone have any tips on the rattle wheels?  Fatheads vs. rainbows?  Plain hook vs. glow?

When I ran rattles, I had the best luck with a green leadhead, with a rainbow.

I have been fishin all winter and jumbo fatheads worked the best for me, lots of big fish as well as many limits of slot fish, my rattle reel set up is 30lb MONO line ''just because of the clearness and diameter'' to a swivel, from the swivel i use 6 lb test P-LINE, floralcarbon about a 2 ft leader , red, glow white hooks have been the best for me, i also use the ICE BUSTER foam bobbers, the small jigheads also work good because you dont need a split shot and its easier to remove the hook after you catch a fish, good luck to you i hope you enjoy your new wheel house, i will also be up there for the extravenganza,,,, hope to se everyone up there.........................good luck fishin

In the permanent, we have been getting most of our fish on Rainbows.  Fatheads and Suckers have produced some fish, but not nearly as many as the Rainbows.  The lines with plain hooks have caught the most, but green, white, and blue jigs have caught fish too.  Don't be afraid to set a line 3-4' off the bottom.
