  1. Old School .Some used with a little tarnish some new. All are great spoons.$57.50 shipped USA paypal accepted. Last optimisers I have..
  2. I purchased a assortment of squid .I wanted to give them a try in the Fingerlakes,they almost look like the jigs the guys jigging use.This one is white glow pulled behind a trashcan dodger with peacock tape. I run them on the riggers or divers . I wanted to put this on the board you do not hear much of squid anymore.It put many quality fish in the box this year.......Just something to think about this winter we all need more tackle....
  3. Cinnamon PM me your address I will send you a 71
  4. I ended up finding 4 sutton 72s 2 are silver silver,2 are silver copper. Ive also got a sutton 71 silver copper.... I do not know how scarce they are...
  5. Going thru my stuff I found a Sutton 72 if someone needs one. Kinda rough but you cant beat the price...

  7. This is messed up but these are the optimisers I have for sale. 4 different parcels. Thanks for hanging with me......I dont know why they did not download in first post.

  9. These can be run up to 5mph plus... i dont remember exactly. Great on bumpy days if you can not get your speed right.or when you can get your speed right Some of these colors are prototypes . Six optimisers per set plus a regular mag spoon is included.Some have seen action some are new But they all are very fishable. When I fished LO many rainbows,browns and salmon were caught on optimisers.I dont fish LO anymore time to get rid of stuff. $32.00per set plus $5.50 shipping Look em over but dont overlook em Paypal works great. Yes I will combine shipping for more than one set.
  10. Thats why the call them silvers.
  11. Interesting. its a dark picture so its hard to tell but I would say brown. Looks like The jaw extends beyond the eye. Nice fish anyway.
  12. I did not fish.some of the fish looked kinda long without shoulders could be something else.I do not stream fish or fish the inlet anymore. I figure those fish are for the guys without boats.
  13. Went down to the fishladder on 13A. You can see a lot of nice big browns swimming below it.A beautiful day to do it. I was surprised I was the only one there. I do not know the rules other than you cant fish there.
  14. i want to upgrade my chartplotter to a 1871f furuno unit. Just curious if anyone that fishes the finger lakes uses one of these and if the C map is as good as the Garmin / navonics.
  15. Looking for a couple of these. Must be this style. Mainly motors and gears. Mine are from the early 80s and starting to show a little wear.I have good bases and frames for parts . i bought a new brute and they do not compare to the old ones. Anything out there kickin around? Bad motors I can get rebuilt. worm gears etc..
  16. They are lucky their radio worked with loose battery terminals.We pulled rods at 1;30 . I could not keep the lines straight behind the boat. Caught several fish with enough length but no girth and their stomachs were empty. A 12+ pounder nice fish.I think today I am rainbow fishing and just keep one laker rig down.
  17. Vicarious you get a 100+ and a sticker on your paper you did your homework. Skateopedia go to the office.
  18. In my normal spread I run 4 dipseys. Over time the wire gets cut back from tangles or whatever, I fish the fingerlakes now and I wont be tieing into 30lb salmon. I just want to add enough wire to fill the reels back up. probably 2 to 300 ft or so. I have a great knot for terminating with a spro swivel to a piece of brad leader useing a half hitch and square knot.. What I want to do is splice the wire together with a spro swivel. You cant use a half hitch of wire on each end of a swivel. I seen a video with a guy tieing a figure 8 knot in the wire. Anyone try this? It seems to easy... Ive got sleeves and crimpers I just do not like useing them. I know your not supposed to splice wire but you get cheap in your old age.
  19. I understand what you want to do with a dipsey rod. However it needs to have enough backbone to release the dipsey. The seaweed and fleas can make it a chore. I run 9ft talora MH rods and wire line. I very rarely reel in a fish .I let the crew do it . I tell em I dont want it unless the rod tip hits the water..
  20. Went out of Meyers this morning, Strong South wind,Fleas are still there ,middle of the lake...1 for 1.Radar showed a storm off the water by 8;30.
  21. We got a few fish .Having trouble getting silvers to the boat. We ran all spoons.. Back to FF and cowbells today to see whats working before the derby. Been trying something different We are starting out in the middle of the lake and doing real large circles.
  22. Fished Cayuga this afternoon. Sea Fleas are back with a vengeance.. A dark brown variety that Ive never seen before. Real hard to clean off. I am wondering if some of those pods we think are bait might be sea fleas..
