  1. Some quite impressive trout for a small, 2 day derby. Largest LT: 14.15 lbs. Largest RT: 15.15 lbs, Grand Prize winner, a Bow!! Largest BT: 11.30 lbs.
  2. Exactly... that's why I used the terminology "data/prediction". Experience and judgement are ALWAYS the final decision makers.
  3. Example of data from the site for Sunday morning, 6/4, in the Olcott area, LO:
  4. Another good source for wind/wave forecast... click on the section of Lake Ontario you're interested in and data/prediction of conditions is provided: scroll down for full data, both table and graphical format https://www.weather.gov/greatlakes/#
  5. Final standings...
  6. Salotti takes home $13,000 for winning the National Lake Trout Derby https://www.fltimes.com/news/outdoors-salotti-takes-home-13-000-for-winning-the-national-lake-trout-derby/article_7d6f24aa-feec-11ed-ab69-1b8dbf3106da.html
  7. Results are now being posted on the FLTA Facebook page, as in previous years, thanks to a "cinnamon fish" request: https://www.facebook.com/Fingerlakestrollers
  8. cinnamon fish.... thanks soo much for the followup. I belonged to a group nearly 50 years ago, the Finger Lakes Anglers Association, that ran informal season long biggest fish (LT, RT, etc) contests. The group included a couple guys that some in the FLTA may recall... Wally Allen and Randy Baker. I just enjoy knowing there's a group of great fishermen still pursuing the unique challeges of the Finger Lakes and following the results through their tournament season.
  9. Is the FLTA posting their 2023 tournament schedule and results online, ? In previous years, the information was posted on the FLTA Facebook page, including current tournament results and updated standings. No tournament info has been posted on Facebook for year 2023 to date.
  10. DEC stocking schedule calls for 6800 this spring...

  14. Man rescued from Lake Ontario as boat sinks https://www.rochesterfirst.com/new-york-state/man-rescued-from-lake-ontario-as-boat-sinks/
  15. DISREGARD.... WRONG DATE... ooops New York Power Authority boat Breaker II brings sections of the ice boom into the inner harbor, as crews began to remove it from Lake Erie, March 22, 2021. https://buffalonews.com/multimedia/photos-new-york-power-authority-crews-remove-ice-boom-from-lake-erie/collection_4b7dafa0-8b37-11eb-a9af-efe0aa754e40.html#1
  16. Rather than thinking of a 2nd engine as a "kicker", think in terms of auxiliary power. The auxiliary power should be of sufficient size to maintain headway and steerage in a blow. Many a "kicker" choice is selected/sized for trolling applications (using main power for trolling in rougher conditions), but the "kicker" cannot maintain headway/steerage if the main power fails in rough conditions. Don't undersize a "backup"...
  17. Be careful... in many tournaments and likely NYS waters, that might be interpreted as an illegal fish. “Landing nets may be used in completing the catch of a fish hooked by angling“.
