Yankee Troller

What's your reason for boarders?

We run A-TOM-MIK Torpedos in the 15# size 95% of the time. They track great, and reasonably priced. Don't overpay for a piece of lead!

No as long as they are supervised Sean. Sent from my Droid Maxx using the Lake Ontario United App.

Yes Observers keep the integrity of the tourney, and more importantly monitor the closed communication rule.

Yes Greg

Sorry Bob...I fixed it!

Yet to be determined Brian. I'm guessing it will be 4 or 5 of each.

If anyone is interested in Sponsoring the event, or has a potential sponsor, please get in contact with one of the committee members.

Many tournament participants received an e-mail the other day about the Orleans County Pro Am being canceled. The tournament committee in Orleans County was unable to raise enough money to be part of the Western Cup, which combined the points from Niagara and Orleans County. Therefore, we were forced to build something a small town like Pt. Breeze could sustain for future events.

I wish! Local Knowledge would take some time to figure out. Not like the puddle we fish in up here.

What's MM 39? Got room for me to stay with ya?

There were issues with the Smart-Troll, and the few people who have them have mixed reviews. Personally, I'm waiting on that unit to become as reliable as it's competition. I think the concept is great. Another issue with the Smart-Troll is tourneys with no Comm. One Smart-Troll boat was told NO when asked if they could run a tablet in a Canadian event last Summer.

I know Roy well. I fish with him on Oneida. Headed there this week. Sent from my Droid Maxx using the Lake Ontario United App.

Thanks guys! BTW...this was a light tackle charter. The Sail and Tuna were taken on 15lb test! The Shark, well, that was another story!

Went up north this weekend chasing eyes! We got into them pretty decent. I hit my personal best on Saturday morning, and then topped it Saturday night. On the left was a 30" 11.5lb beast, and on the right was a 29.5" 12lb brute. Great time, good fishing, and some good friends! Even a few from LOU! My buddy Casey also took a nice one

Had the opportunity to join a few friends on a trip to Key West. They go every year, and they asked if I was interested, so I said what the heck! I've never been there, but what a great place! Foods great, weather is great, and life is so laid back there. Anyway we went on a charter for two days. They had fished with this guys for years, so they knew there would be no shortage of fish. Day 1 we stayed on top of the reefs and fished for Yellow Tail Snapper, but we caught Blue Runners, Cero Mackerel, Bull Sharks, Ramoras, tons of Bonita, and a few other species I might have forgotten. We got our limit of Yellow Tail, and I got so pissed at the sharks for eating our fish when we hooked them I hooked into a few of them on shark gear. We fished with Dale Bittner of Bait Stealer charters. Guys been doing it since he was a kid with his father. He knows the area well! Our Yellow Tail Some Cero Mackerel and maybe a Blue Runner My 6'/200lb Bull Shark Day two was a little calmer, so we went offshore and chased some Pelagics.
