Rod when ya need a little smile ,just remember "the shower (and plug)" the Friggin "pink towel" And the NJ capt meeting night.. Maybe the east end will have a few more "Good" memories.....see ya next week..

put the chart up here too.....please

does it do it trollin in flat water or bumpy water specially when broad side to waves

geese what a bum lookin pic,ya look like someone i cought sneekin around the playground a few years back,but yer nose ant broke and yer eyeball socket ant smashed in.....du browns should be circling lodi bout now try a west,east troll...Ive got 1 or 2 nice ones in tight in the little cove on the n.side of lodi take it to the cliffs north circle out to 70 and follow that line home.... PS early means sunup not 9am /

Like said above ya should be fine ...600 rpm is hudge for 1 deg of pitch either ya wernt testing under same load (weight) ,the pitch isnt what ya thought it was ,or the rpm guage is off...my 17p was great with 2 or 3 people but filled up with gear ,gas,and 4 guys ut uh... the 15p fixed that under load but does tend to leave a little extra throttle when im alone (high rpm) but im shure my tac. ant running true either ....just be carefull (throttle)running light ....

Ok maybe a Slob!!

yea ,yea,yea, break a leg will ya! The Hudson run was as good as it was 12 years ago (EXCELLENT) if not better ...good to see It apears to be "across the board", Oh I Just looked at your post again didnt realise you were holding a fish ,ya should of held it out at arms length so it appears to be a big one..oor is that a chunk of bunker. . . . . . . ok ya got me.....and im happy for ya thank you for the pic....

Ive been on the phone with guys from the islands to astubula .....the island boys are driving east and straight out for astubula,,,,I know Spellin,................ so july aug should be on track....due to the stained water the bite has been challanging to say the least and the shallow guys are slidding out a tad lookin for a little cleaner water if we could get 1 week without rain ,,but with that said the less they pull outa the lake out west the more for us..

started out with 250 boats but after some of the post here i think its down to 2... after back to back proams its gonna be tuff to find another play weekend ,too bad it couldnt be scheduled during the summer LOC (next year) sorta double dip derby..

ohh id like that ...sold 607 769 7947 give it to jerry to bring to oswego .............no forget that TAPE it to his boat or hell forget to bring it have him pay ya the 30 bucks and ill pay him back...

Boy I miss playing At The Oak....this time of year id be on the water at 0430 ....Now that the wife is retired seems like all i do is work,Ive gone from a 100day season to 6 so far (PRO/AMS).... Now ya see why I played there in the past, Thanks fer rubbin it in Rick ya know how to hurt a guy.

Be a little kind and count to ten ,my favorite "buffy grounds" is the 30 pluss line and my boat is aluminum not armor plated.. ............................... Pegasus,Pegasus ..this is the canadian customs... we see the whale in your boat what is your intent.......over.... Captain we better call the mainland i think i see a bear on the boat too!!

Wow you got the good one i run th 49cent autopiolet (1/8in bunjie cord) maybe ill save up and upgrade....when i tweak mine with a tad side breeze she runs very true... man the 3/8ths is sweet tho .... someday ill upgrade.....

Runnin Rebel is in 11th comon jer pull a big one out yer um LAKE...or 5......fishin yesterday was a little bumpy but most teams did real good with the fish its just the sorting game they been tossin the 15 lb class back like we do shakers..Hope the lake flips (all the little fish go to canada and the big fish come here ) be a real bummer to complain "Darn another 20 lb shaker"

Opps my bad yer right my memory was at its 5 min limit after a chit chat session shuda wrote it down..are you in it too?

Well If ya think about it for a moment or two its not so bad. The derbys you refer to are salmon only, and it is a 5 biggest that allows many smaller fish and other spiecies to be released. A salmon at best lives 4 to 4.5 years 99% of the spawners mature at 3.5 years. If yer familure with the life cycle of a salmon 100% of those big fish weighed in will of died this fall... and i garentee ya ant no one gonna eat a dead moldy salmon this fall.that died on its own.. We dont wait for deer to die of old age then wander through the woods looking for a meal. The reason those salmon are put in the lake as cruel as it might sound to ya is for our enjoyment..we have bought and paid in one way or another for the right to catch and remove the fish from the lake for what ever reason.... Yes at the derbys when you see 30 coolers and 150 fish it might seem like a lot and it is at one spot to the average eye ...but we stock millions, for our enjoyment and many more reprodece on theis own .. Many local groups on the U.S.A. side benifit from (our) derbys they provide a food source to many without a means to catch fresh benifite from.... If you see fish being dumped in a dumpster as a norm at these events (and i doubt you do) dont sit back and complain about the destiny of the fish , But Get togeather with local food pantrys,church groups,and any local groups that help the needy WITH YOUR EFFORTS..YOU WILL HAVE A DIFFERENT OUTLOOK TO THE DERBYS AND LOOK FORWARD TO FULL COOLERS BEING BROUGHT TO THE DOCKS AS THE SMILES ON THE FACE OF THOSE YOU HELP WARMS YER SOUL.... So get on the phone NOW with your friends and get a little fillet party staged at the cleaning station and show up at weigh in with your own coolers and turn yer complaints to complements from the needy.. Ray K.

please post phone number and address...Ill stand outside your door call yer wife and tellher what you did when you go running by ill do my best to catch the troller when she throws it out the door at ya...and if yer too slow and its sticking out yer arse when ya go by ........well yer on your own....

I didnt see any no wake sign......Dear Sir We broke the law and wanted to make this "most stupid criminal video" Thank you! Uh are you like shark fishing with a swivel that size? and the 1 in tag not trimmed will effect lure action...Too bad ya didnt have that trained "Storm Chasers" number he could of told ya how simple it could of been to miss the "Bear Claw" and keep on fishing....I can see i gots my work laid out for Oswego,,darn rookies I should be there next (12 days)wed if mother nature dont swipe the oll bear claw down.. did ya do a rod count yet hmm we started with 8 and got to the dock with 3..

Ok Our first Pro/Am was a team we pulled togeather from this site MUSKIE ,FISHERMEN :puke: in bumpy water,a couple tight turns during the emergency retrival of a cheeteos droped on the floor before the 5 sec rule was up...and a few farts gone to sharts....We had a great time with memories that will always be with us Good and bad The team Im pulled togeather for oswego and sodus took less than 2 days of posting my search....
