    i heard someone say recently (with regard to the hydrilla in cayuga) that the hydrilla could ruin the bass fishery there. that seems pretty unlikely to me because i grew up bass fishing in texas and the best bass fisheries there were FULL of hydrilla - i mean thick with it (30 fow and you could nearly walk on it). We would not only fish the edges, but use plastic worms with 1 oz weights - drop it right in the stuff and pull out LOTS of 6-9# largemouths (40# line and NO drag) perhaps things are different in a colder climate? i doubt it. I think it's the home owners who don't want it around their docks and water skiers etc who don't like it. I'm not saying they don't have a point, but i do not think hydrilla hurts bass - i think it helps. andre

    does anyone have the dive curve for Rapala Taildancers (especially the 30' taildancers, but also 20' & 15')? i have the 6th edition of Precision Trolling, but i think that was published before Rapala came out with the Taildancer. if you could post or email me a PDF of any of those dive curves (the 30' is what i want the most), i would really appreciate it! thanks, andre

    So i took the laker with the lesions to the region 8 DEC and Pete (forgot his last name) talked to me. I am very disappointed with the whole thing. He said he didn't think it was anything serious, probably a virus with a secondary infection (which manifested as the 3 lesions). I asked him if he'd take the fish to do pathology work on it and he said he wouldn't because they don't have a lab there! I am surprised they wouldn't send it to a lab to determine whether or not it was something serious or not. Let's hope he was correct and it wasn't anything too serious. Gambler - where did you catch the 34# laker? dre

    I was fishing Canadice yesterday and caught a 3-4# laker that had 3 nickel-quarter size lesions on it. I fish Seneca a lot, so i know what lamprey marks look like, and i am quite sure these were not from lamprey. I don't have time to post pics at the moment, but i put the fish on ice and am taking it to DEC in a few minutes. 2 sick fish from hemlock and canadice in a few days has me a bit concerned.... dre

    why can't they use the old docks? i launch out of woodville a lot and the docks seemed fine to me. I'm glad they extended the ramp, but what was wrong with the docks? dre marquis

    Hi all, Last march i purchased Carlisle F78-14ST tires for my 19' Crestliner. They are load range C (up to 1760#). With my kicker, 2 batteries, trolling motor and other gear, i'm sure i'm either pushing or exceeding the load range and my tires show it - major cupping on the insides, and my trailer is in excellent condition (i measured from the tongue to the center of each hub and and difference was 1/8"). my question is what tires have you had good experience with? (i'm quite sure my next set will be load range D, but i have not been able to locate any 14" tires that are D rated). i may be able to switch to 15" tires but i'm not sure. thanks, andre

    I just spoke with a DEC rep and he told me that the woodville lauch won't be open til April 1 (DEC website originally said it would be done around mid-January). When i asked him why it wasn't finished on time, he said - and i quote: "the cold weather has really set them back." WOW - i moved here from texas 8 years ago and it didn't take me that long to realize it's gets cold here in the winter. As someone who lives near hemlock, woodville is a lot closer than watkins or taughannock. I know the N ramp is open on Canandaigua, but last Feb i caught a lot of lakers in the south end and was hoping to replicate that. Does anyone do well in the N. end of Canandaigua this time of year? andre

    Has anyone been by the woodville launch recently? Do you know when we'll be able to launch there? thanks, andre

    jerktroller - thanks very much for the info HPORT - it never occurred to me that they WEREN"T making the ramp longer. If they do a construction project there and don't do that, it would blow my mind. On the other hand, i guess you never know.... best, andre

    Hi all, according to the DEC website the woodville launch closed November 19 (for construction) and will "remain closed for approximately two months." Has anyone been by there recently or know if they are on schedule? thanks, andre

    i was hoping to launch out of woodville later this week but drove past there today and it is under some kind of construction. does anyone know 1) what they're doing there and 2) when the ramp is supposed to be ready for use? thanks, andre

    i don't have a biomedical background, but i think i would have let that deer pass on by (i shoot only what i know i'll eat). It is likely perfectly safe to eat but nonetheless, i doubt i would have shot that freak! (i prefer my deer with 4 legs) dre
