Just an FYI, If it is a Yuck Club Trailer, Bryce marine in Rochester is the NY distributer.

Junk Yard, and they will give you a certified weigh slip. Then fill out the proper paper work at your local DMV. I was GM for a LoadRite Distributer and we did this several times. It really is quite easy.

Off Pillar Pt. and also Bass and Horse Islands.

It was about a 45 min. ride out and a 1/2 hr ride back in my 24'. I came in after I spilled my coffee. LOL

Jeff, it almost sounds like we were in the same boat. I forgot to mention that we did get into a nasty swarm of knats and quite a few bees as well. The lake was beautiful though. Shawn

Thanks for the advice guys. It sounds like it must be me. I did try it on both sides of the boat and also various adjustments and tightening the screw. As far as the release goes, it is a bit touchy. I am running the middle size so maybe thats part of it.

Went out today and rocked and rolled. 1 Goby for my efforts.

Fished late afternoon till dark. 20-50FOW with 1 release off a Chrome/Blue J-Plug 15 over 27 on a rigger. Fish was there and then gone before I could hand my son the rod. Saw a hand full of boats and I didn't see anyone breaking their arm. I did mark a few fish in the mouth of the river and saw a few rollers. Hope it picks up soon, my son is losing interest.

Anyone using these or familiar with them? I picked up a couple rather than the Dipsies because they are a buck or 2 cheaper and look exactly the same to me. I have been using them for about a month and I don't think they track off to the side as much as they should. I was out a bit this afternoon and one diver kept walking across the back regardless of where I set the keel weight. Any help is appreciated.

Thank you Gambler and Yankee for the reports. I am thinking of trying Hedges Sunday morning and if nothing takes which is what I expect, I will head east. Minnows and soft shells if I can find any. Not much into the hard stuff for smallies. Thanks again!

Thinking about trying for some smallmouth near the plant. Any reports?

20$ for the 4

I have 4 for sale. I believe they are 8 lbs. a piece. 1 is a Cannon. $10 each or all for $30.

I have fished smallies on LO for over 30 years going back to a small kid. Only within the last 5 yrs locally. Most years past, between Henderson and Sacketts. The early to mid 90's the fishing up north went to @#%$, at least for me. I was just getting the hang of Hedges, Bear Creek, and a few other local spots when the gobies came. Some guys defeat the gobies by trolling but I just cant do that for bass. Hopefully, no gobies is a good sign. I have heard that the Sheep are huge and plentiful this spring and summer. Maybe they are feeding on the gobes.

The good news; NO GOBIES!! Bad news; No stinking SM either! 4 hours with minnows and softshells- 10 FOW to 50 FOW and not even a tap.

Boat is no longer for sale.

Boat is in very good shape. Welded Aluminum 350 Mercruiser GPS FF VHF Trim Tabs Downriggers Low Hrs I want it gone! 585-621-8917 $4,500 [/img]

I have seen these marks myself. Reminded me of lamprey marks on salmon.

There was a Hard Top model on Craigs the other week for a very reasonable $2500. Gotta wonder but maybe worth checking out. The boat was located in Wolcott.

I have an 88 Sabre 24ft w/HardTop w/trl 350 MC 20hrs since rebuilt washdown floor New Paint 2003 VHF GPS PortPotti F/F w/dig depth Needs u-joints and Gimble replaced. Been under cover since 2005. $7,000 B/O

Man, thats a rough week. Especially the last part! I was also up there at the same time and I can pretty much confirm about the fishing. I did happen to do about a dozen smallies for the week off the shoals in front of Krings. And 1 small Pike in Goose bay Thursday when the river was too much for my boy. Certainly nothing to bragg about! Trying Hedges tomorrow!
