    Hello All, I just signed up to be a test subject for a vaccine that is being developed for Lyme disease. This is something I think about all the time, because I work outdoors and pull at least a couple of ticks out of myself every season. They still would like volunteers, so I will post the info for anybody who wants to sign up. Brief details: it is 18 months long, you go in once every couple of months to get a shot, they do pay you $800 for your involvement. There is a 1/3 chance the shot you get is a placebo. This is phase 2 of the clinical trials. I figured hunters and anybody whose job places them at a higher risk for Lyme should be interested in this.

    Yes, I made the fly and video. I was too busy to dig out my trolling fly box and photograph them, so I posted this!

    Just to add to this thread, here is how I tie one of my favorite trolling flies, should anyone care to try their hand at making trolling flies.

    Long Time Fisherman, Let me know if you can't find any source of trolling flies. I don't tie them to sell, because I was never fast enough to make any money at it. But I offer them to guys who invite me on their boat.

    https://fiddleheadfocus.com/2017/04/25/sports/sh-mainelyoutdoorscol-17-17/ Long Time Fisherman, here is a link that shows the kind of flies I use. I tie my own. You'd have to mail order them from places in Maine or New Hampshire.

    Yes I use small spin doctors with New England style tandem hooked trolling flies. Have caught all salmonids that way. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    I live in the middle of my village and it's hard to grow anything on my lawn! Deer are voracious, and they know where they're safe during hunting season!

    With each video, I'm whittling away at New York's tree species. Our forests are pretty diverse!

    Hello All, Forgive me for the off topic video. But I had a very unusual summer, and, among other things, I got some good aerial shots of the Finger Lakes!

    Here's a video somebody did back in 2009 on Keuka.

    I put up a video once before showing the tackle, tactics, and you can see me catch one in real time. The only difference between LO and the finger lakes is that in the fingers, cranking the jig really fast back to the boat will get strikes, not so in the big lake. Here's a link:

    Hello All, Hasn't been a very fishing- filled year for me. But a good Saturday forecast moved me to invite an old chum along for some Laker Jigging. Steve hadn't caught Lakers that way, and was game to try. Usually I like to scout the fish before inviting people, but I probably won't get that many trips so we chanced it. Luckily, the fish were a short distance from the launch. We set up shop an I quickly landed a nice 33 incher. It took a while for the fish to warm up, but there were plenty under us the whole time. Eventually Steve got a 32 and 33 incher for himself. He was tickled, said they were the biggest he got. Won't be too hard to get him out again!

    Hello All, This will be a unique summer for me. I contracted with a helicopter company. We are flying the power lines, marking hazard trees along the right of way. Will take all summer. So I won't get to fish much, but I sure get some breathtaking views of the Finger Lakes!below is the south end of Canandaigua, Bluff Point, and Seneca.

    Nice job Brian!

    One winter I bought a kit to make panther martin and mepps-style spinners. I made dozens of them, it gave me something to do through the winter, and I had a good batch going into the fishing season. One of my first trips out, I left the damn box full of them resting on the bridge over East Koy Creek and drove away without them. I bet you I made somebody's day! Nice job looking for the owner.

    Gator, I have been out once out of Sandy and was skunked! Of course I want to go again. Lots of summer left.

    Hello All, Many of you are woodlot owners. Last week I met with a client who had a landowner's worst nightmare. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_aWV-pZcmY

    That's the biggest NY smallie I have ever seen photographed!

    Will you go the next step and install sets of treble hooks?

    During an election year, they have robot programs going around muddling up message boards with nonsense. Best to ignore it.
