got any pics i might have it

psst Billy bobs (seneca marine) is for sale imagine what a well stocked (what everyone uses) tackle shop could do right there i could set up 10 ft off wall space their with good stuff and outsell the entire rest of the store.............but im just a plummer.......................... ill have to get down your way to see if Jason has led you astray with "white" or "green" spinnies and all those fly thingies.........

as long as you speed matches your presentation your good, a salmon can swim 25 mph so keep your speed under that,,, sometimes it takes getting out of your element to figure out things ...IE; this year in fla i observed many (all) charters fishing king mackrel going 5 to 7 mph (just guessin but they were really moving fast) all i had were my spoons from up here which need slower speeds to "flutter and kick" and those fish didnt mind one bit Im shure i did as well in my canoe as those guys were in their 42 ft cruisers (catching not comfort)...same with lakers many people think ya gott slow way down for them unt uh , their little tail can get em up to speed when their hungry ,...you ant gonna get a flutter spoon or cow bells to perform at 3 mph nor are ya gonna get a heavy NK to perform at 1.5 mph.....so when i mention the 3 S's ,speed,speed,speed your speed need to match your presentation,,,,its more important to "match " your lure action (weight & action) in your spread to your speed than color..(in my opinion) ive only been doing trollin for 10 years and lake ontario for a few less than that ,but if you think and pay attention to whats happening on your boat (maybe your speed indicator is 1/2 mph diff than some one elses ) or their pullin heavy stuff and you got light stuff out if you match their speed your killin your spread....another thing to keep in mind you get off speed for 10 min out of 1 hour (too fast or slow) and you "kill your spread" now multiply that by time on water IE; in 6 hours you totally wasted 1 hour of off speed time ,gas,catching,and fighting....FISHING... so make the best of every second your out there and put the speed indicator in front of the drivers eyes.......

I have daves cell phone number we all could call him every few minutes just to keep up to date ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,We you dave keep up the good work !!!!! (all of you folks behind the scenes including the weigh stations)....Being in the derbys adds that extra excitement to a fishing trip, and gives us all a chance to see are name in lights .....well sometimes only for a day ,till we get BUMPED. so to all the guys who have bumped me off the board in the past i give you the L.O.U. salute

Hey you know their will be a boat or two up this way if you turn the wheel north (when it warms up here). So soke up the sun for now and if you are heading up send a pm and ill try to get ya out on my tin can (22ft alum)... P.S. Did ya see their was a 27lb king caught in the Scotty tourny ,and the bait is so thick guys were getting bait stuck on their setups=======big fish year.. Ray K.

also if we work togeather it would take some of the load off the commitee and dave so they could update online as fast as the calls from weigh sta come in..============less next year derby winners killed (fish) very few of us keep big fish unless we think its a maybe...so between the bait and throwbacke well see some monster steelies and browns

lynd ive mentioned this before if we could call into weigh sta from water but now were really puttin a load to those guys....but with all the I phones out there we could axcess the site from the water and those of us with them (not me) could work togeather on a given channel ...................Ie: this is pegasus on ch 68 with a 12 lb steelie is it worth the trip to the scales.............maybe you could put a added note at each station (regerstration ) that if we all work togeather we can help eliminate excessive fish kills.

Ill 3 rd what fx said but now hanks gonna need a bigger door to fit his head through......even went as far as to fill up the motor (water) barrel in jan to test and repair my 4 hp before my fla trip (muffs dont work on this motor).. then it took him all of 30 sec to determine the problem (weak leaky coils) but with my proffesional help (hank whats that thingy do?) he got er purrin in no time... so ill bare my "bald spot" and take my hat off to him too ....THANKS CURLY

What Jax said ,, dypsys can take a toll on rod holders make your first one the last one ..this is one rod holder you dont wanna skimp on......

NOOOOO after all i only piad a couple bucks a reel (my story) and she would sell for a buck ...........man some guys are pmin me wanting a list ..... if i ant got it it ant made .....

just depth ,lure,and location

maybe they should mount them at the top of the Niagra falls , then the could raise the entry fee to only 1000.00 bucks and people wouldnt have to go on a boat to view the beauty of a great big windmill geese they could save thousands (viewers flocking to the windmills) and while they were staring at the great big blades,they might notice one of the seven wonders of the world for free..not to mention the power grid is nearby to tap in to. Then they could get all the FREE stimulass (stickit in our a@# ) money avaialable .look how great our highways are already from this superfund and the millions of new jobs created sence its passing.......heck i bet one or two could be mounted on that big stack at summerset to make it more pleasing to the eye to help offset the one or two jobs lost when they close that plant...Oh yea were heading in the right direction,,Just ask Patterson,then we could close all the state launches and still offset the piddly income from the 10,000.00 fishermen who spend a few bucks a year chasing a stupid fish, then they could close all the hatcheries cause the fish could sustain a healty population ,saving New York City er i mean state millions on those hatcheries and only loose 2 or 3 more jobs in the same swipe of the pen.. Im shure people would be lining up at the docks for a 3000.00 charter to view them and you could sleep in in the morning and save another 5 or 10 bucks on those silly spoons rods and reels, fisfinders and that fishy stuff ..Im shure if we quite buying all thst unneeded tackle on the great lakes only 1 or 2 more jobs would be lost with Billions of new income who cares...

ive made em i the past from byc spoke meterial ,alligator clip soldered ., with vac tube over the jaws.....the shower ring ,clip and tube would work ok..
