Happy New year everyone. Hopefully 2009 fishing is great for all of us.

Looks like Ray has hacked into Muskybobs account. Looks like his spelling

You to. Hopefully 09 fishing is better than this years dismal season. Good luck everyone.

Looks like it to me. It just goes to show catch and release really works.

I'm talking about running 2 rods off of one rigger with the top rod cheated.

The X-97 is sold pending payment.

The flashers are sold pending paymeny. I still have the Dodgers and will throw in these free unrigged trolling flies. I will also ship the dodgers at the buyers expense.

You should be able to if it is mounted low enough. A long shaft would be better.

Yes you can. I do this once and a while. Rig the bottom rod, then the top rod and add the cheater. Its simple. This takes a lot of out of temp fish for me.

That is the way it is w/ most cameras under the ice. The color cameras give you a little bit more but color cameras are useless under 30' of water. I purchased the Marcum V250 and like it. It was $159.99 with a $20.00 mail in rebate late year.

This is the first time I used the camera at Braddocks. I was shocked at the number of panfish too. Lots of dink perch and some real nice ones along with bluegills, sunfish a gobie and 3 crappie about 4" long.

The Genny is good but after the thaw, the Genny is at flood stage. The water is chocolate milk. It will take a couple of weeks to clear. Once it clear, it will be good. Oak Orchard, 18 Mile Creek and some of the Erie Tribs are great for steelhead at this time of the year. My suggestion would be to hire a guide.

Congats Tom. What are you going to name it?

No

I'm buying a slightly used Lowrance x-15 from a buddy.

I'm selling my Lowrance X-97 fish finder. I'm upgrading my electronics. The unit works great. I'm asking $125.00 for it. Everything is with it, power cord, transducer, unit, mounting bracket and the screen cover. Will meet someone in the Rochester area 1/2 way.

Gotta pay for upgraded electronics and take some extra weight out of the boat. I have not used an echip in over a year. I have not used the Luhr Jensen Dodger in over 3 seasons. I'm a Spin Doctor fan all the way.

Fished in the monsoon an Saturday and did really good on pike. 2 of use fished 10 tip ups and iced 8 pike and lost 4 others. We had other flags with quick long runs and drops before we could get to the tip ups. Watched the underwater camera and was amazed at the number of pike swimming by. One 20 minute time period, we watched 7 pike swim by. Mostly smaller pike but one monster. The ice was still around 5" in most spots when we left at 1230. The top layer was getting soft and the shore ice was crappy. The water was getting murky really quick as it got later in the day.

I'm selling 12 Luhr Jenson Size 0 dodgers and 3 size 000 muching dodgers for $50.00. There is a picture of all the dodgers below. I will throw in these unrigged flies for free and ship at buyers expense from area code 14468.

Freeman77, How was the ice?

I'm going tomorrow Tom. I might need sunscrean!

Tom, I was not fishing for lakers so I thought you would not like it. Don't worry, I will get you out there as soon as mother nature quit screwing with us icefishermen.

That looks like Jax in the Pink ones. His hair is all done up if you look closely. I can't tell which one Rick is?

Bob, Call Higbie farm supplies in Chili at 594-8300.
