Both fish are salmon.Both Slider and his partner from that trip both have been Fingers for years.Now,with Rusty chimming in on the correct ID,the fish are salmon.Thank you Scott.........Zeke & Cyn (Strike 3)

The launch is clear,bubbler is working and the lake is as low as we've ever seen it.Maybe with the warm weather,it will come up abit.......Zeke & Cyn(Strike 3)

Mike,our proposal will be open for DISCUSSION in 2010.If.in the eyes of the DEC it merrits a regulation change,it will become a law in 2012.As I understand,changes are only enacted every two(2) years.Enjoy your retirement....Zeke & Cyn(Strike 3)

Erby,I have exchanged several e mails with Steve LaPan,Unit Fisheries Director for Lake Ontario.Our letters have been read and the 3 rod issue will be addressed.The downside is that we are too late for the 2009 season.Our proposal will be submitted for discussion in 2010.It will then have a 45 day window for discussion among the various stakeholders.If it does merit a regulation change,it will not be enacted till 2012.One thing he did say is that the main opposition is not from the DEC but rather the Conservation Council.we'll just have to keep hammering at this until we get ti done...Thanks for asking.....Zeke / Cyn (Strike 3)

SBJ....years ago,the dorsal was used by the DEC as a marking clip......Zeke/Cyn(Strike 3)

Strike 3 votes for the 18th.Maybe we can finally fish in this thing and Rusty....we still remember.....Zeke/Cyn(Strike 3)

Hi Tom,thank you for the reply.We need to keep pounding on this to get it done.Your efforts are appreciated by many on this board AND many others that aren't members here.We are going to keep trying to get others to get onboard with this.Take care......Zeke/Cyn(Strike 3)

Cyn and I have written several letters to the Dec about NYS allowing 3 rods/Person.We've not yet received any responce.Has anyone received an answer yet.It could be the budget crunch causing the delay in an answer.Cyn is a State employee and it took the State at least 4 months to replace her department's broken printer.Maybe they are behind on the their internet billings.....Zeke/Cyn(Strike 3) I bet it would pass for a fee of $10.00/year

You haven't seen Klause.....He's Chum B's new partner Happy Holidays...Z/C(Strike 3)

Hey Chum Bucket,why would you need a doll when you could have Klause??????....Zeke/Cyn(Strike 3)

Hey Chum Bucket...We did support the Town of Lansing BUT not as much as you did!!!Must be they don't like our $$$$$$$.Happy Holidays....Zeke/Cyn

Hello Spoon Fed.You are so kind in including Cyn and myself with the likes of Rusty,Traveling Man,and Stinger.Very good teams there.Our trips have been way down the last 2 years but we've never had so much fun we we did get out.Our favorite set is 3 riggers and 2 wire dips.Maniac has crafted us a rigger board made from ash.Most of the time we wouldn't need the 6 rod that we would gain.There are links on the Open Discussion section with the contacts we need to let the DEC know what our wishes are.If you guys get a free minute,please fill them out.....There is a team from the above list that even 3 rods/person wouldn't be enough.Can anyone guess who that might be? Happy Holidays....Zeke/Cyn(Strike 3)

There is a thread in the Open Diccussion tab bout the possibility of allowing 3 rods/person.It appears that it is for the Lake Ontario water.The Finger Lakes people also need to let the DEC know that there are alot of 1 and 2 person teams that would love to run an extra rod or two.The contact links are on that thread.Please take a moment to let the DEC know our wishes.Thanks and Happy Holidays............Zeke/Cyn(Strike 3)

We are a husband/wife team and would love to see 3 rods/angler.We fish alone the majority of the time.Would catch rates really be impacted?????I don't know but I do know that there are alot of 2 person team's out there that would love the extra rods.If the musky guys are opposed,than make it a rule specific to trout and salmon trolling in Lake Ontario and The FINGER LAKES too.Please don't leave the Finger Lakes people out.Let's hear from more of the 2 person team's too....Zeke/Cyn(Strike 3)

My wife and I fish Cayuga Lake most of the time and spend a week at the Bar in May and another week at the OAK in July.We would love to see rods / person increased to 3.This is not to run 3 lines each but rather run 3 riggers and 2 wire dipsys and be legal in NYS.We've always wondered what is the difference if we catch our fish with more that 2 rods/person so long as we don't exceed NYS catch limits.We are catch and release people most of our trips.Just our 2 cents..... Zeke/Cyn(Strike 3)

Hi Grey,great looking ride.We know you've been looking for awhile.All the best to you and thanks for all.....Zeke/Cyn(Strike 3)

Hi Stan,our thoughts and prayers and with you and your family.We wish the best for you guys.Take care......Zeke/Cyn (Strike 3 )

Yes,it was Butch.Coasties came out with the white suits and masks.Must be they know the routine.We're just leaving camp for the Fort.I call you tonite,,,,,,,Zeke/Cyn(Strike 3)

A sad fishing report.After fishing inside the Green Can for few hours an other FISHSTYX pulled lines and headed alittle deeper to try for some Kings.They did a decent coho and then came upon a body.They called the Coast Guard for assistance and 5 boats responded.A grim reminder to all to please be safe.........Zeke/Cyn(Strike 3)

Split,we hope to have a 8 yr old with us.Should be fun to watch Cyn and Hunter battle for each release........Zeke/Cyn(Strike 3)

Strike 3 is in for the 2nd.Also FISH BUZZARD is in too.....Zeke/Cyn(Strike 3)

I just got off the phone with the Border Patrol at Niagara Falls.As long as we DO NOT DOCK for any reason in Canadian waters,we DO NOT need a Form I 68.We do need to have our Ontario Fishing License....Launch at the Fort...go into Canadian water...return to the Fort WITHOUT DOCKING in Canadian water.....We're good to go.Number for the NF Border Patrol....716 284 5174..............Zeke/Cyn (Strike 3)

Please don't follow the STRIKE 3.We don't cash checks,don't catch fish and we don't have any trophys.No need to even look our way.The RAT will lead you all to the TROPHY water.Tomorrow we'll be following STINGER and HUNTFRISCO around the south end.They are the team to watch......Zeke/Cyn (Strike 3 )

Moto,we just bought a Garmin 376C and had no trouble locking from inside our house.You should be fine.....Zeke(Strike 3)
