Tried and True TROUT TACKLE for Spin Fishing
Tried and True TROUT TACKLE Spin Fishing for by Tyler Frantz photos by the author Inline spinners Whether wade fishing streams or lake fishing from my boat, an inline spinner is one of my all-time favorite trout lures, because it mimics baitfish and triggers a trout’s natural predatory drive. Spinners are highly versatile and Trout season is a great time to be outdoors, as sunshine are available in a variety of sizes, shapes and colors.

Take the Family Fishing
CATALOGUE 2019-2020 GLOBAL ROUND UP It’s not hard to tell that at Halco we love fishing. We do it a lot and we are inspired by creating great products. The design and creation of lures is not achieved by focus groups, nor surveys, it’s generally driven by Tim and me out fishing and seeing an opportunity for a great new product for the Halco line up. Then I get busy in the design room and with input from the team a new product is born. But it doesn’t end there, we then make it in our factory, test it, fine tune it and catch on it. Only then is it ready to go to market. SLIDOG 150 SLIDOG 125 It’s a fun and rewarding process, but often time consuming and frustrating. This year has seen the design and creation of the Slidog 125 and the Poltergeist 110, both variations of current products but both with their own set of challenges. There’s more on the way too! Every time we go fishing – we get inspired. SLIDOG ............................. 3 POLTERGEIST ...............16 See you on the water.

Equipment and Rigging for Steelhead Preparing for the Spring Fishing Season
Equipment and Rigging for Steelhead Preparing for the Spring Fishing Season by Jason Swingen ne of the biggest hurdles to over- come when getting into steel- Oheading is picking out the right tools for the job. This is especially true if you are coming from spin fshing, where your rods are easily labeled, from light to heavy, and moderate to fast. Then you decide to get your frst fy rod and you are hit with terms like 1-12 weight (power of the rod, or weight of the line), weight- forward (a specifc fy line taper), tippet (fancy term for “even more leader”), and strike indicators (an advanced air flled spherical device built to sense underwa- ter activity -- also known as “a bobber”). Fly fshing can be thought of as an over- complicated form of spin fshing, so it is only ftting that the terminology is equal- ly as complex. Everyone has their own ideas on their fa- vorite brands and styles of fshing gear, but for the most part, the equipment used by 90% of anglers on the North and South Shore is all quite similar. In this article I’ll go over rods, reels, line, fies, indicators, nets, and the rest of the gear you should have if you are getting into steelheading, upgrading your cur- rent gear, or are looking for a gift for the steelheader in your family! Rod The most popular rod for fshing steel- head on the tributaries of Lake Superior is a 7wt or 8wt, fast action, fy rod. When I frst got into fy fshing, I heard that a 5wt is the most versatile fy fshing rod, but didn’t realize that they meant for trout and not necessarily for steelhead. -
