Product Reviews
Throughout his years of salmon fishing, Captain Jordan has experimented with a large variety of different products. He is proud to endorse what he feels to be the best of each product type and offers a review on some different products that he has used.
A-tom-mik flies
Wow what can I say. Over the last couple of years, using unique colour schemes, and the A-tom-mik invention of the tournament series rig, A-tom-mik has established himself of the front runner in the trolling fly industry. We have so much confidence in this product, we don't even carry another manufacturers fly product on our boat when salmon fishing. With colours like the B Fly, Hammer, Green Hammer, LBB, mirage and many more- there is always something that gets those kings going. After playing around with rig lengths, we found 21 inches to be the most consistent producer. We highly encourage you to pick up a couple of these products and can guarantee you will not be disappointed with the results.

Hot Spot flashers
Hot Spot was one of the very first flasher to hit the Lake Ontario market, and continues to be one of the most productive. We have enormous confidence in this product. For fishing with cut bait rigs, or 3 fly rigs the hot spots give great action to whatever is in tow. The bull frog and white lightning are probably the most popular colours, however in 06 Fin-natic we had great results using the new U.V patterns like purple haze and watermelon. As well the Apex were on fire for a period last year. The Stinson colour absolutely hammered them for us on several trips during the year. Visit the site www.hotspotlures.com for more details.
Scotty Downriggers
After playing around with 3 different types of downriggers, Walker, Cannon and Scotty- we were convince Scotty is absolutely second to none. When pulling 15 pound balls for those way deep kings these riggers don't even flinch. They are more than capable to take any abuse that is encountered with daily fishing. After fishing with Scotty we will never go back to anything else. As well, we have added a couple other great Scotty products to our boat. The rod holder trees offer a great way to get planer board rods out, and the cup holders are a great invention especially to keep customers happy. Check out their full range of product at www.scotty.com.
Silver Streak Spoons
Not yet well known on the Canadian side of the border, is without a doubt the best spoon on the market. Silver Streak spoons provide a deadly action and some unbelievable colour schemes. As well their glow spoons prove to be a consistent producer for Kings in overcast conditions or deep water. We love the Hot lobster, monkey puke, screwball, mixed veggies, green alewive and Michael Jackson colours to name a few. They are now available at Bass Pro Shop and should soon be offered by many retailers along the North Shore of Lake Ontario. For more information visit www.catchmorefish.com.
