I've hunted both areas, have property in Allegany county. Last couple years I found 3-4 woodcock flushes each time out, this year hard to find one flush. I did think it's because it's so dry. I did find more grouse though, but in thick stuff so hard to shoot. Cattaraugus county also has food areas for grouse. The DEC is finally doing more cuts. Tug hill generally has more birds, we have found a good number around barnes corners. Lots of state land. Woodcock closes after this weekend. Usually find then in the alders. Deer season has been going on for a while up there so might be less people out. Good luck Sent from my moto g power using Lake Ontario United mobile app

What does everyone use as a knot for wire dipsy rods? I tried a figure 8 but when pulling it broke. Did a search but couldn't find a knot to use. Thanks Sent from my moto g power using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Had the same issue with mine turned out needed a new steering housing motor and control board. Don't replace the steering housing motor without replacing the control board. Not cheap. I tried the control board first as everything I found said that was the issue but then it still didn't work so replaced the steering housing motor which it still didn't work. Took it to Tony's in orchard park who tested it and ended up replacing the control board. I should have replaced both at the same time. Fish 307 is also a repair place if you don't want to work on it yourself. Sent from my moto g power using Lake Ontario United mobile app
Yeah figured I was sol, since I didn't buy them but got them on a used boat. I was going to pay for the switch but they said it was an odd issue and are sending the new switch on their dime. If I do buy new downriggers I will go with Scotty. Sent from my moto g power using Lake Ontario United mobile app
Been having an issue with my autostop clicking off, not staying on. I wasn't sure which riggers I had since I bought the boat used. Was looking for parts and the autostop switches are out of stock at fish307. So sent an email to Scotty to find out which riggers I had and see about the switch. Literally 15 minutes after sending the email I get a call from British Columbia, it's Scotty customer service with a few questions. They found it uncommon for that to happen but are sending a new switch out, no charge. They have been great riggers except for the switch. Great service especially since I didn't buy them new.
