waterlogged

Rod, You had/have a PM.

Iceman, How you doing?? We are heading up to Oneida after work tomorrow and fishing Fri. night and Saturday but on the west end. Can you give me any tips as we haven't ever fished this lake. Pm me if you want !! How's Mr. Lester?? Clarke

LevelGreener, I also run 2 Digitrol II's. I have talked directly with Cannon and if the keypad goes bad there are no replacements any longer. They can convert it to a Mag 10 though for over $100. If there is other problems like mechanical not involving the keypad they can fix it. I just had mine refurbished by Cannon a couple years ago. Clarke

Jim, Congrats on the fish - het ya never know!!!! Clarke

Only one comment here after readig all the posts. CBish has it right - the other guy has got to care!!! :roll:

Scott, I agree with Glenn Aquaview 210. Makes old cloudy vinyl windows look like new. I think it's both a cleaner and polisher. Clarke

Started out running the 40# Ande pink when we bgan fishing the Bif O as the guys who taught me to fish the Big O all were using the 40# pink Ande. Then the flea flicker came along and jumped on that band wagon. Had a few breakoffs on "good" salmon with the FF so went back to the 40# Ande - clear this time and have stuck with that since and it has run flawlessly. Also run 20# Seaguar floro leaders behind the 40# Ande. We do run 20# big game with an 8# floro leader on our brown rods and it has performed flawlessly. Clarke

Gill-T, I think this is a great idea. You don't know how many times last year we waved and hollered and tried the radio to ask/beg other boats to stter clear of us as we had 600' of copper out. Most of them just look at you like you have lost your mind or are drunk as a skunk aand goofing around. Shade, the suggestion of waving them off doesn't work, either does the radio in most cases as I mentioned above unless you know the guys in the other boat. Maybe they could be an LOU Store item??? Clarke

I too want to wish ALL my friends and fellow LOU members and Dads a very happy father's day. Clarke

Scott, I am glad that I could connect you and Tom on this ride. Sorry it's not quite up to your other one but it sounds like you will be happy with her in the long run. At least you only drove less than an hour to pick her up rather than all the way to Illinois . A little cheper on the gas, eh?? Glad everything worked out between you and Tom. Clarke

Rick, Rodney brings up a good point. The rule 3 states: Tournament Limits: 3. Teams must enter and exit from assigned ports ONLY. The intention of this ruleis that your fishing day must begin and end from the same port. As discussed many time at the Oswego Pro Am. You can't leave from Oswego and return to Mexico and weigh in. If you were running out of gas or a huge storm kicked up I don't think you would be penalized for seeking shelter in a different port as long as you made it back to your original port by the deadline time. So why can't you get gas a long as you return to the port from which you left??? Am I all wet here or reading too much between the lines?? Clarke

Seems there is nothing there!!!

Rodney, Just wanted to know if you weren't getting my e-mails or were totally ignoring them. Clarke

We ran the add a lines for a while. They are pretty difficult to thread on to 40# Ande line but if you use lighter # test they work great. Jason - when we meet up for the tackle box I'll give you a couple if you want to try them. They really do beat the rubberbands!! Clarke

Ray, all the best wishes to your Dad for a good result. You are in out thoughts and prayers. Clarke

Larry, As a dyed in the wool Sabres fan that was the ultimate. Two passions combined - Sabres Hockey and Salmon fishing. Nice video.

Gene, We did the same thing - bought the plain ones and applied Black Dip-It. This is the stuff for coating tool handles , etc. You can get it in a spray can which works well so you don't have a large expense for a gallon can of the stuff. We hung them from a large snap swivel off a couple 2x4's across a couple saw horses. As with all painting multiple light coats works best with the recommended drying time in between and many coats/layers for durability. Clarke P.S. Just don't get them dragging along the bottom by accident - makes the torpedos "snub nosed" and obviously you'll be recoating them.

Ladybluegill, As a participant for many years previous, but on the sidelines this year, I know in the past the Pro Am web site has posted the results of the entire event a couple weeks after the conclusion. Unless things have changed this year they don't post daily results. Clarke

Bill, You better wat out - you are slowly turning into e "REELJERKS" That's a compliment for both og you in case you didn't know. (I know Mark probably won't see this until her returns from the Pro Am) Clarke

Couldn't find this when I wanted to in order to help clarify the spedd vs. depth issue and have now located it. At a 2.2 down speed your 600' .037 section can achieve 132' in the water column with an attractor/fly approx. 22' down per 100' out At a 2.2 down speed your 600' .037 section can achieve 156' in the water column with a spoon approx. 26' down per 100' out At down speeds faster (up to 2.7) your 600' .037 section can achieve approx. 108' – 120' in the water column with an attractor/fly approx 18'to 20' down per 100' out If you happen to frequent a certain port you can get use to the currents and such. Each port is vulnerable to, taking into consideration under-currents and such these figures can change just a small amount or drastically. These numbers are a great starting point, however remember, copper moves in the water column a great deal, along with adding stealth to your presentations, coppers' ability to cover different water columns after small speed changes, on turns and such can benefit your presentations greatly. .037 copper is 45# and has a breaking strength of 30# test.

Was going to but won't be able to get there to pay the entry fee by Friday. Probably still going to Oneida anyway. Not sure which day.

Just talked to Bradbury's Boatel. $20 ticket must be purchased by Friday - Runs all Memorial weekend Payout for the top 25 fish judged by length(all categories) Walleye Northern Bass Perch

Nick, You shouldn't feel that way. A lot of us met (meet) that way. Clarke
