  1. Don't listen to Rick. He just wants to take your money ! Start here and work up to the pro level.
  2. Does it matter when it's 24lbs? Not in my book! Skamina or not that's one impressive steelhead!
  3. If everyone participates, the payouts will go up faster. I give you kudos for doing this Tacklebuster! I entered this weekend and enjoyed being able to fish a tournament in between LOC derbys. My crew and I will be joining the other one also.
  4. That is correct.
  5. I have more new colors and a couple more coming out.
  6. How are the rigs working out for you Nick?
  7. After pondering about this, it is my opinion that the laker division minimum need to be lowered to 18lbs. Yesterday we had two between 19-20lbs. Most Loc derbys, 18lbs will make the board. The LOC is bigger and runs longer (summer). Once this derby takes off and there are more entrants, I can see upping the minimums. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  8. Hmmm. That one is going to be tough to duplicate. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  9. Depending on the brand, over 1.8 the bites decrease dramatically.
  10. According to the lady from the NYS health department, Mercury levels in the great lakes fish have declined big time and are not really the issue. The reason they grind the entire fish and test it that way is because some people use the entire fish (fishhead soup and fish broth).
  11. The restrictions were just loosened this year. The NYS health department ran a study and found the contamination levels have come down significantly. I was one that gave blood and urine samples for the study. I eat a lot of salmon, pike, steelhead and perch from Lake Ontario and my levels were VERY low.
  12. They were grass carp. Not much of an issue for Lake Ontario. They eat vegetation.
  13. Stuff like this gives us fishermen a bad name. Thanks for saying something to him! Most would turn their cheek.
  14. Electric or gas it needs to be registered in NY.
  15. You can cull you just cant throw ones that have been in the cooler back in the lake. Get three good ones, then upgrade until your limit is filled.
  16. I find it funny that the one and two year old Alewive year classes are low according to the DEC yet we have been seeing a ton of these come in the intake at work. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  17. That is a king not a steelhead.
  18. And they are his favorite fish to catch!
  19. 650 should be fine. I worry about shorter backing if I run it off a board. The backing you have out to the board takes a nice chunck out of your backing. If you run it down the chute, you can get away with shorter amounts of backing.
  20. I would think they would not need to come into the bays and impoundments as early because they can stay at the Goby buffet and eat all fall without moving much. Last fall, the perch showed up in my honey hole very early compared to the past five seasons.
  21. Last fall, I saw some of the best perch fishing in years. Lots of good sized perch and a ton of dinks too.
  22. Turn the sensitivity down.
  23. Congrats Les. Awesome that you shared that moment with your son! It is a memory you guys will never forget.
  24. I had the same issue and it was the screen on the pick up in the tank. There was a dead fly stuck to mine.....
