if your intrested in it pm me and well figure it out

i have a eskimo mako 8" and it works great for the amount of ice we get here. i would stop in and talk to the guys at mitchells (on lake ave). they will be able to give you a great price on what ever your looking for. if your looking for a manual hand auger i have one in my garage thats 5 years old and barely used (trade me some beer and its yours).

jerry is the head of our sandy creek welcoming committee

rick, maybe you could just add another crew member to crank them in by hand.

Fished the south end of Irondequoit bay in 25 fow i front of the R&G club. the action wasnt hot and heavy but rather a slow pick for most of the morning. ScottB and I managed about 40 keepers w/ the same number of throwbacks. tipdowns w/ fatheads and niagaras took the majority of the fish but ScottB took a few jigging too. plenty of ice out there (5+") and plenty of guys fishing it too.

this is what i have and i think it was money well spent. http://www.clamcorp.com/fishtrap_guide.html i bought it to be a comfortable 1 man tent. its easy to pull, plenty of room for all your gear, and it has 2 seats for you. it has alot of assessories that you can buy for it too.

slow fishing. the guys with me concentrated their efforts on pike and didnt have a flag. i spent the day chasing perch with very little luck. had a half dozen keepers amongst the couple dozen dinks. niagaras on the tip-downs and jigging rods with the same caught the fish. everyone who stopped to chat said its been a slow week there and they really had to work hard for what they kept. it can only get better there, i cant imagine anything much worse.

Rod, heres a link for you: http://www.customink.com/indexb.html ive been using this company for about 4 years now. ive had them do shirts and stuff for my construction company and for the charter biz too. their website is fully interactive (so youll never have to leave the desk to place your order). they offer a wide variety of products and brands.

pretty cool

gambler, thats crazy!

cant beat the price.... http://www.buyfishingstuff.com/berts.html.

i believe oil prices fell to a low of about $35/ barrel. when that happened OPEC cut production by about 2 million barrels a day (to "level" out pricing). now the price per barrel is holding right around $50. http://www.oil-price.net/

with light line your gonna have problems with line twist. try 8# test and see if it helps.

wow Larry...53? happy birthday!

cant believe the water is still that murky? im itching to get out and put a whuppin' on some perch but its seems like i havent missed much. i drove by on saturday at midday and it was quite busy.

i run 9'6" daiwa heartland dipsey rods. okuma blue diamond rods might be another choice.

im not a fan of the "add a line" but you can use toothpicks to pin the "add a line" to make it a fixed slider. i would suggest using either the roemer liberators or the rubber band method. with either you actually deploy the rigger then attach the cheater. liberator method- attach main line to downrigger release and deploy 5-15' (or whatever your separation distance is). take your completely rigged cheater line ( 6-8' leader w/ swivels on both ends w/ your spoon and liberator attached) slide line into liberator, close line clamp and keeper ring. throw spoon overboard and make sure line is running true. lower rigger to desired depth. rubber band method-attach main line to downrigger release and deploy 5-15' (or whatever your separation distance is). take your completely rigged cheater line ( 6-8' leader w/ swivels on both ends w/ your spoon). half hitch a rubberband to your mainline then attach your swivel to the mainline and to the loop in the rubberband. throw spoon overboard and make sure line is running true. lower rigger to desired depth.

chowder, the second line is a fixed cheater. "add-a-line" is a brand name of a release. some guys use rubber bands to pin their cheater and i use roemer liberators. hers a great picture of the setup: http://www.roemerrelease.com/Roemer%20L ... iption.htm

great story! hopefully with nys changing the regs we will have more of these stories.

ive had success with alot of different combos. i like to fish kevorkians mupped ,high in the water column (top 40') . i also love to fish stinger nbks on a deeper rigger, lets say 50-80' mupped. both were great producers last year.
