    Nice work. Were you on the drop off or between Wilson?

    A lot of what you are seeing there on that graph is thermocline/plankton blooms.

    Sorry buddy, wife got wind of me not fishing and decided a new agenda for my time tomorrow. Keep an eye on those storms to the West.

    290' out on a standard dipsy you are about 75' down. Mag dipsy will put you to almost 100'. I would say that does not qualify as super deep in the world of salmon

    Twice this year upon boating a King on Ontario and recheck my fluoro fly leader, I noticed my cinch knot had slipped to the point I was lucky I didn't loose the fish. The tag end of knot was pulled flush to the main knot. I think the stiffer nature of fluoro causes relaxation in the cinching over time where mono really cranks down on itself comparatively. Now these were knots that may have been tied two years ago so it might be good practice to either retie over time/usage or at least grab a pair of pliers, wet the knot and pull the tag end to retighten fluoro periodically.

    Sorry for your loss. Prayers sent.

    Buying new is a HORRIBLE investment regarding what you will receive back when you sell it. Worse than cars. Buy at the bottom of the value curve, put a little sweat equity into her and you can sell to a new owner similar to what you payed for it.

    Take a look at the Penn Yan 245 for sale in classified section.

    Combat trolling = Downriggers, mag dipsys, thumper rigs. Keep it close.

    You ever wonder why you don't catch shakers inshore in Niagara County in the spring despite warmer temps starting mid-April? They don't dare swim in the Laker zone!
  17. Gill-T
    Show off!! Hey Brian do you have that picture of the 16" King in the stomach of a laker from Keating you could post?

    I gave you the info you need. Give the guy a call. Tonawanda is outside of Buffalo.

    Esgdirect is supplying parts and servicing subtrolls. The guy is local in Tonawanda. I picked up cable from his house yesterday.

    Jerry are you thinking the fish are not there because of conditions (which seems optimal given hard bottom) or because of where they are stocked? If they are not dispersing lakewide as you would think then perhaps we should be talking less about Lake Trout cuts and more about moving stocking locations to other side of the pond to take predation pressure off our pen fish? Why would they choose sand bottom over rock when everything we have been told is they like hard bottom structure? To me it is a bait distribution issue as to why they are on our shore. If the even distribution issue can't be remedied them I am for cutting lake trout stocking.

    Jerry I am just gauging interest level in Lake Trout. Most Canadians I know call them "dirty boots".
  22. Gill-T
    Work2fish, do you or anyone you know target Lake Trout ie. Put out cowbells or Dodgers/flies?

    Thanks for the clarification Sarah. I was a little confused as I was thinking the Youth Division was another division carrying the $1000.00 prize. I can see where in could be abused so I understand the reluctance to add money to the category.
  24. Gill-T
    Sarah I was shocked to learn my buddy's son who won the summer youth division was awarded a trophy and $50. Seems a little weak on reimbursement!!

    There were injuries. They mercy flighted someone. Google boat blows up in Olcott and you should be able to find the story. Vague details. I was hoping they determined the cause so others could learn from it. It happened June 24th this year.
