  1. Same one as Dave is selling here: http://www.lakeontariounited.com/fishing-hunting/topic/49642-cannon-swivel-base/
  2. Used base in great condition. $50.00 and I will ship it for free anywhere in the Lower 48. Local pick up I will knock it down to $40.00.
  3. Conservation takes a back seat to $$$$$$.....
  4. The article was from 1988. I wonder how long it lasted?
  5. Holy Sh*t. He was a little lost. I read an article about this not too long ago!
  6. Another issue could be the plugs. I was told if there is any kind of corrosion on or in the plugs, it can cause these types of problems.
  7. I used Interdecks from West Marine. Durable paint and it is easy to apply.
  8. Yes Steve they are and then they are weighed on a scale and magically they lost tons of weight from the time they were caught and weighed on a scale. In all seriousness, big browns 12 - 16 lbs are caught often in Lake Ontario but it would be nice to see slob browns over 20lbs. more often.
  9. They stock them in Lake Michigan with no issues. No reason NY should not be able to make it work.
  10. I hope he threw it back. They taste like sh*t!
  11. Not yet. It might be good in a day or two. It is frozen just past the launch.
  12. I blew two circuit boards in my one mag 20. The cause was my fault. The little rubber boot the covers the switch had a crack in it. Water got into the switch and caused a short. Once I replaced the rubber boot, the problem went away. I just replace those riggers after 13 seasons of abuse. Those riggers saw a ton of stress dragging bottom for lakers with only the one rigger burning up 2 boards. The other two riggers were bullet proof.
  13. Matt and I are going to wrap the Jon boats we have sitting in out yards and and slab a board on the back with some PVC rod holders!
  14. Come west to sandy. You will spend less money in gas and slip fees. Less sailboats and rec boat traffic. Oh and less crime......
  15. They have been at the Sandy Creek Shootout the past couple years also.
  16. The win would look good on your Tourney winnings page Rick! It will help you get more sponsors.....
  17. You guys in on this Yankee troller, Silver Fox, Legacy and Misdemeanor?
  18. Come on Les. You need a sense of adventure. We had it happen at Irondequoit bay years ago. You just have to drop a guy off with the truck keys and drive to the next port.
  19. I asked about Powder Mill last year at the state of the lake meeting and they said it was due to the fact that it was privatly owned.
  20. In addition to creel surveys how about angler diaries like the finger lakes?
  21. It is very rewarding to get your kid into fishing. It is a day you both will never forget! Congrats!
  22. The is tons of $ in the conservation fund, or the lawsuit that they used money from to buy the marking trailer that could be put towards building a hatchery on the West end. There is also Powder Mill. Powder Mill is privately owned but the could make a deal to subcontract the job of raising the salmon. King Davy, The DEC is all about a Healthy fishery IF the budget allows. If a healthy fishery is what they are all about, they would not have all their eggs in one basket! The DEC did add a ton of fish to the lake by adding 300,000 lake trout that live WAY LONGER than a king. This could be detrimental to the fishery if there is a bait collapse. Kings would be out of the system in 3 years. Lakers can be in the system OVER 20 years. It could be a reciepe for disaster if something were to happen.
  23. Because we get the same carbon copy every year Carl. They do not want to admit low numbers of kings and high numbers of alewives. The state does not want to spend the $ to put more kings in. The get the feds to stock more lake trout to knock the alewive numbers down.
  24. Anyone with kids, this is a great way to get the kids away from the TV and do something fun.
  25. Nils is the best, then a Strike Master Lazer. Get the wallet out for a Nils. They are double what a Lazer costs.
