Mark - That DEC lady is Jenna Lantry. One of the most knowledgable fisheries people on Big-O, especially with Lakers & the stocking program. Tom B. (LongLine)

Make sure your probe can ride horizontal in the water. Sounds ike you have plenty of weight but if you put too much tape on the connection, especially if it's all wrapped really tight, you can get the following to happen. If tilt is too much, you'll get a max reading. Tom B. (LongLine)

What size weight are you using? Is your release above or below the probe? Tom B. (LongLine)

Some guys change to singles, some don't. I change most of mine to the singles. However be forewarned, action will change & you may have to tune them to get it back. If you don't tune them, they'll wobble good at slower speeds but spin out at the normal speeds. Tom B. (LongLine)

I'd guess Chinook35 nailed it. FWIW Screwie Louie's in Fairhaven is an authorized repair shop. Tom B. (LongLine)

Happy BD, B-F Tom B. (LongLine)

Birdie, Birdie in the sky.... Dropped some white wash in my eye.. I'm a big boy, I didn't cry... I'm just glad that Musky don't fly. Anom. (Glad I fish the central area)

Use a square shank screwdriver. Push like no tomorrow, put a small wrench on the shank and turn. This way your concentrating more on keeping driver blade engaged than turning the driver. Don't know how big your motor is. Pump oil in thru bottom hole till it comes out the top, then pump in a little more. Don't forget to check the gasket/washer on that screw. Sounds like someone overtightened it, to overcome a bad gasket. Tom B. (LongLine)

How heavy is your cable? 150 Lb? The heavy stuff ie 210 Lb is ridiculous for blowback. What kind of weight are you using? Ball, fish, shark, pancake? How much vertical space do you have between weights? Tom B. (LongLine)

Shade - Copy/paste the excel file into msPaint. (should be listed under accessories on your computer - actually I use photshop but paint works ok) Crop & save as a j-peg. Upload to photobucket, copy into reply. Tom B. (LongLine)

Hey Musky, Get back here...No one said you could have any time off. Hope you're felling better soon. Tom B. (LongLine)

That really sux. Unfortunately there's no cure for stupid. Glad no one was hurt. Tom B. (LongLine)

I don't see it either. Some of there rules specifically say they apply to Spring & summer, but ceremony for spring stated as Abbes in Sodus. I'd give registration places a call starting with Abbes. BTW nice fish. Tom B. (LongLine)

If a marine surveyor said ok, I'd go for it. Tom B. (LongLine)

augh "fah"

711 - That'd probably be a good choice. Tom B. (LongLine)

Sensational Sammy Salmon steadily swam south. Equally, Edith Eel elegantly edged eastward. Wonder where woeful Willie Walleye went?

Good pics (click on RHS fish name) http://www.wiscfish.org/fishid/frames.aspx Tom B. (LongLine)

Chemistry & Biology are psuedo-science, Physics is the operating system of the universe. After all if it weren't for Newton and "Bodies in Motion", none of us would be here today. Why do you have to click START to STOP Windows? Why does the human nose "run" yet feet "smell?" BE - warmed up, it's not too bad, ice cold & it's a killer. Tom B. (LongLine)

So which archebacteria came first? Did a microscopic rock evolve into an archebacteria? How come we have to pay to drive on the "Freeway?" Tom B. (LongLine)

I won't tell.... Tom B. (LongLine)

Kamikaze Micropterus salmoides ? (The LM that commit suicide by jumping in your boat while salmon fishing?) Tom B. (LongLine)

Ice – The record LM for NYS is 11-4 caught in '87. NYS Anglers Award qualification is set at 6 Lbs. Therefore, LM over 6 are worthy of NY recognition. For NYS bass fishermen, they are "monsters." On the other hand, the world record LM is 22 Lbs therefore some may say that a 10 Lb’r is “puny,†no matter how you photo it. I guess, using the same reasoning: The California record for King Salmon is roughly 85 Lbs so some of those “fruits & nuts†may be wondering: How can anyone ever place in a tournament with such a “puny†salmon?, especially when your own state record is almost twice that? BTW – How, where, when did you say you caught it? I missed that (or perhaps I didn’t request it - like I had to for your picture.) and your not a newbie to the forum. “It just shows the posters lack of knowledge & need for self gratificationâ€. LMFAO as TLIOY. Tom B. (LongLine) p.s. Not all the "fruits & nuts" are on the West Coast if you think a 10Lb LM is "Puny" or that you can regularly catch 10Lb LM while trolling for Kings.
