  1. Another petition we should all get our names on: http://www.gopetition.com/online/33008.html
  2. Great work Tom, THANKS! I copy/pasted it and sent ANOTHER round of letters to the Bozo's in charge.
  3. Humminbird has come a LONG way from the days of being a Wal-Mart bass fishing sonar unit. To give you an idea of just how far, I owned a new Furuno 585 prior to my 1157c and the Humminbird's sonar capabilities are right on par with that unit plus it serves as a GPS/plotter and it has XM Weather too. It's a great unit, and if you want to see one feel free to stop by the boat next spring and I'll show mine to you.
  4. Get ready for Lake Ontario to never be the same again. NOW is the time to speak up fellas!
  5. I love my 1157C and my 955C. I also have a Humminbird 255 VHF radio that's been great too. These screen shots were taken from my 1157C last May when we were fishing Wilson:
  6. 42 here.
  7. Like I've been saying since the very beginning of this thread: Write to your representatives and STOP these people from ruining what we have here. Everything about this proposed project smells rotten to me.
  8. Awesome buck Gray! Way to go!!
  9. That's awesome news Rick!
  10. Very nice Chris. Congrats!
  11. NICE Jerry!!
  12. Address is good Dane. But you need to indicate that it's Patient Mail on the envelope. I had one of my cards returned because I didn't write that on it.
  13. I've seen this boat several times before and its a sweet ride. Wish I had the $$ for it myself!
  14. I have a Humminbird 1157C on my boat and love it. Matter of fact I love it so much that I'll be adding a second one to replace my 955C GPS. I also have XM weather on my boat and I won't ever fish without it again. It has, on numerous occasions, given us a heads up about severe weather on the way and allowed us to make it back to port prior to high winds, lightning, etc. I haven't used the side-scanning capabilities but most of the guys I talk to prefer traditional downward looking sonar for our trolling applications.
  15. SOLD pending payment.
  16. SOLD pending payment.
  17. I suppose I could sit here and do nothing Has Been. That's one sure way to let them go ahead and ruin Lake Ontario with this plan. But personally I'd rather voice my opinion to all of our elected officials. I don't think that voicing my concern will make any difference by itself, but if enough of us step up and tell the idiots that run this state what we think them maybe we can stop this train wreck. Its up to us to do something. Because if we don't we'd better start selling our boats.
  18. I have a set of planer boards for sale. I made these myself and ran them for many years. They track beautifully and are feather light. Other than needing a fresh coat of paint, these are in great shape and are ready to fish. $50. I will not ship these. Local pick up in Ithaca, NY only. PM me here, email me at [email protected], or call me at (607)592-9012.
  19. Pile of flashers for sale. Most are R&R Salmon Assassin's, but there are a couple of Bechold's in the pile too. There are also a couple of Flash, Rattle & Dive's in here. $40 takes it. Buyer to pay shipping or pick up in Ithaca, NY. PM me here, email me at [email protected], or call me at (607)592-9012.
  20. I have a big pile of flies for sale. Howies, NK's, Atommik's, Sigg's Rigs, Yeck's, some I tied up myself. Lots of them are brand new in the package. Most are standard sized Salmon flies, but there are quite a few Howie Peanut sized flies in here too. All kinds of great colors. Lots of un-rigged bodies, lots already rigged. There are a couple of foam noodles with flies on them too. There's a package of Gammy Octopus hooks in the pile. I think I even saw a few spin & glows in there. Probably close to 100 flies in this pile. There's a lot more than it looks like in the picture...that pile is probably 3" high. I will not separate. $100 takes it all. Buyer to pay shipping costs. PM me here, email me at [email protected] or call me at (607)592-9012.
  21. I have a big pile of spoons for sale. Most are blades that I painted up myself in my shop back when I was messing around in the spoon business. Most are just the spoon, with no hooks, but there are a lot that have hooks too. There are a few NK's, R&R's, Pirates, and so on in the pile. All different sizes too. Lots of very productive color patterns. I will not separate. There has to be well over 100 spoons here. This would make a great starter set for someone looking to get into trolling. $100. Buyer to pay for shipping costs or pick up locally in Ithaca, NY. (607)592-9012, email at [email protected] or PM me here.
  22. The DW Superslim Gator, Diehard, and Feelin Irie were crazy good for us this year.
  23. When I read things like this it turns my stomach. It's amazing to me just how bad off our State and Federal budgets are. Decades of gross mis-management and excessive salaries and spending have us up against the wall. And now some fool wants to put millions more dollars into an ill-conceived project that will benefit no one but that abomination downstate, if it'll even do that. Add to that the fact that no one in power ever seemed to wonder if our supply of foreign oil would ever run out or even get more expensive and we're in a fine mess. Perfect. If you're an elected official and you're reading this, you put us here. Your greed and self-serving agendas likely made you rich and powerful, but you've put this country and our state on the brink of ruin. THANKS A LOT. Please do us all a favor and step down and let a businessman run things from now on. If I handled my business or even my personal finances as poorly as you've handled our tax dollars I'd have been out of business long ago, and my home would have been foreclosed on. I'll never vote for a lifetime politician again. They all make me sick. That being said, I'm going to write our fine Governor and my local representatives and express my displeasure over this proposed disaster.
