  • The NFN Adventure team fished in the 41st Annual Kewaunee / Door County Salmon Tournament (my 16th year participating). Plus this year we also got into the Salmon-A-Rama and won some cash in the Big 5 event with our five biggest King Salmon. Meat rigs proved to be the big fish baits of choice. My favorites are the Big Weenie rigs ran with full sized herring ran on the deepest downrigger plus the 300 copper rod was hot.
    Here is where you can get the green pin clip that I showed in the video www.thepinclip....
    Big Thanks to my crew Mikey and Wally for keeping fishing fun.
    NFN out...

    Great video as always,hoping you can do many more! Using the sw dipsey rig on my boat,works great! You said you fish the full moon phase, what part(beginning, total,waning,or all) ?

      I enjoy night fishing for salmon anytime within 3 days prior to 3 days after the full moon.

    I love your videos Nick! You remind me of me and my buddies on our boat. I know the video-ing is a hassle, I’ve tried it, but I’m glad you keep at it! We don’t have as many kings here in Montana as you to guys do, but we are pretty hard core after what do have. I’ve learned a lot from your videos. Thanks!

      @@bobhunter8992 right now I am using luhr Jensen standard with the white add on ring.set at 3 1/2. Pulls hard ,takes a bit of adjusting. I check it often because of spiny fleas and smaller fish don't always trip it. Here on Huron walleyes are everywhere, even out at 170 ft of water . Triple your ft back to get depth.(60 back is 20 ft down.

    Great video, Nick! Looks like you and the crew had a great time, as always! Miss seeing pops and uncle Sam in the boat too! I too got a troll smarter put in this summer. Seems fanastic so far. Easy to use, lots of adjustment, the surge stall feature has helped to trigger more bites, no doubt!

    Great vid nick, got a question about how you run your meat. When you run meat, what speed are you running at the ball and what are you using for the rest of the spread so you know it is working at slower speeds.

    The release is called The Pin Clip.
    It's the original maker of OR16 who sold the patent rights to offshore many years ago and now sells these.
    He's from Mayville Wi and the bciest guy ever and they are the best clips out there and made with all USA products and hand made by individuals with disabilities and super affordable!
    Great video as always!
