    Cavitation and boat moving effects what you see. You will be shocked how many fish are under your boat when in neutral-not moving esp over deep water.

    If I had to pick two....eight and five colors.

    Many times they are high enough that they disappear in the surface clutter on your fishfinder. You would have to set the zoom and power to show the top of the graph. I see them in the summer depths on Lake Ontario right before they hit a rigger line so there is nothing magical about them.

    I can’t see why having a non-native small population of walleyes in Skaneatles would effect a small population of non-native rainbows. I don’t like the thought of individuals stocking public waters however!

    What they are selling at Fat Nancy’s would give you a good indication.

    The Gill-T Hookers will be back.

    Splash down slated for next weekend. Temp in the 60's. Don't let the snow get you down, get your gear ready.

    Flat raps work! I run one off a corner of the boat as a flat line out the back.

    I flew over the lake Sunday and I would say 1/3 of lake has ice

    Boom is placed across the mouth of the upper river. They probably won’t pull it til mid April.

    Boom in place

    Carb or fuel injected? Pull plugs and see if there is any water that comes out. See if plugs are rusted. If the block is not cracked it may be a simple fix like a carb job or ignition coil. Take it to someone who will sea trial the repairs otherwise you are wasting your time. Hank in Port Bay and Anchor Marine on Grand Island are two that come to mind.

    They do well in Lake Michigan

    I would look at Diabolical rigs. I like the accessories on their heads so you don’t need toothpicks

    I would love to see a study of lake O salmon tissues looking for pharmaceutical based hormones that may be in the water. How about the stuff in plastics? Stuff changing rapidly in evolutionary terms. The amount of largemouths with melanin black blotches is alarming. Nobody talks about a “fish bowl size” theory. The larger the fish bowl, the larger the goldfish. Perhaps salmon with an ocean evolution are evolving to the smaller lake setting.

    Jigging or trolling? Jigging and family time = pontoon

    Cleos work. I like small hot’n’tots fished slow.

    Thanks for posting Brian. Simple mods. Find bendable aluminum trim in any Home Depot or Lowe’s, add bolt eyelets for tie points on tow string, lock washers/and or lock nuts. 1/2 keel is towards the tow string side. Note when you add 2nd keel you want to tap holes so keels are slightly angled away from tow string so boards track away from boat approx 1.5” offset from factory hole. Placement of tow knot matters. Shorter front section is approx 7.5”-8” and longer back string is approx 10.5”-11”. Word of caution on spray paint and styrofoam is it can warp boards.

    Gambler has the pics. He will post on a separate thread. Maybe Rob can pin the thread for a reference. Brian posted on Questions about trout and salmon trolling section

    I don’t mind posting it, I just don’t know how to post a picture lol. I will send the picture to gambler and he can post it.

    Spend the money on two extra 1/2 keels. Otters function MUCH better with the extra keels. If you PM me your cell I will send you a picture of how I reinforced mine. Their downfall is the string pulling out of the styrofoam over time. With reinforcement they become carefree.

    What he said. 15’ Trilene big game green mono with a Seaguar fluoro leader for clear water. In green water my leader is 12 lb green Trilene XL.

    If the more accurate question is “where do I put my probe rigger”, then I would say approx 48 degrees. Early spring or late staging areas you may not find 48 degree water so fishing the marks on your graph trumps temp.

    I love you Hank.
