That video is misleading. Out in the wild, that cormorant wouldn’t survive long. After having eaten that way, it’s incapable of flight and thus has become an osprey or eagle snack. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Call your local landfill. They will charge according to weight

There is another way to treat Lampreys. Research has shown that they do not like to enter creeks that smell of dead lamprey, but they love to enter the creeks that smell of very young lamprey. This enables the treatment to be very pointed. The dead smell creeks do not need to be treated while the young lamprey smell creeks attract more of them. In the "sweet" creeks eel weirs are set . these catch thousands of them before they ever spawn. The ones caught that way become fertilizer.

Could this mean that the rangers will get the same powers as the Econ officers? Or is it only that the administrative supervision will be under the rangers umbrella while the separation of duties remains the same? Or will the rangers also get trained as law enforcement officers? If so, there will be more law enforcement on the ground. Where in this scheme are the Park Police? Will their authority increase?

Maybe. In the previous administration there was a democratic majority in both the chambers ,but a small group of democrats caucused with the republicans. This can easily happen again. Anyway, the democrats are very much on the side of protecting the environment and the natural resources of the state. The information that the DEC provided was crucial to the decision not to have fracking in NY and Cuomo listened to the DEC. It is my feeling that "Emperor" Cuomo may be trying to streamline the different branches of government , but he is not trying to destroy the DEC or take away from its authority. In NY state both republican conservatives and democratic liberals are on the same wavelength as far as protection of our environment is concerned.

Hello Gil. First of all I wish you and yours a happy Christmas and a happy new year. I do however have a problem with your post. It is quite possible that Cuomo wants to merge the DEC Econ Officer Department in with the Forest ranger Department. But your post does not give a lot of proper information about the good or the bad of this idea. All it gives, is the opinion of one Forest Ranger who talks while he is under a gag order (not a good sign to disobey orders). As for the DEC not supporting a politician during elections..., They are not supposed to take any political sides during any election because they are state employees and not a political group. I have nothing but the greatest respect for the Econ Officers and hope that they be be able to continue their work . They should be paid the same as a State Trooper. Can you please find a source with some more information so I can take that to my local politician. Skyman, sending this to only the minority leader and not the mayority leader as well ,only turns this into a political game where the minority uses it to attack and the majority is guaranteed to win.

My trophy steelhead was the first one I ever caught trolling. It was probably around 14 pounds, but that is beside the point. The way I caught it made it a priceless trophy. Trolling out of Olcott at the 27 line and not knowing what I was doing I just sort of followed a charter boat and aped him. It hit a 300 leadcore with an orange crush and a small dodger. It promply broke my line just into the backing and made me feel like a fool for having yet again lost $30 dollars with nothing to show for it. But this one was mad at the lure and started jumping and trashing at the surface trying to get rid of the lure. I turned the boat around, grabbed the net and netted him. The fish did not even know that I had come to get him from 300 feet away. I got my leadcore, dodger and lure back. But I did let the fish go. He deserved it. But I will always remember him as my trophy.

Wanted Looking for an ez steer or similar for kicker motor steering

There is a stainless Stearns auxilary steering bar for around $50 and the Panther zinc one for around $30. They attach on the front of the engine and are easily detached. The prices are when bought new. I like them better than the EZ steer, they are also much cheaper than EZ steer.

Back in town. I just found out about instant climate change. In 5 hours from 90 to 29 degrees. It was a great time. Rookie fisherman, thank you for allowing me to use your lures. Because of my daughter's wedding I was with my wife's parents who are in their late eighties most of the time. This and the high surf allowed me to use your lures only once ,but it was enough to catch one small black tuna. This was on Thanks Giving day which gave your generous offer special meaning. It is the seemingly random act of goodness that unites us more than other things may divide us. I thank you again! Whaler, I hope that you will bloody those lures. In San Jose, there is at least one Walmart and also a good tackle store where you can stock up on last minute gear. In the rest of the country, fishing gear is not so easy to find

It is very easy to boycott a store that doesn’t sell the products that you want. Most fishing gear online stores have more choices and are cheaper. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

The extra 90 pounds may throw your center of gravity farther backward more than you might like. It will be a bit harder to get up on plane. It may be a good idea to put some ballast up front in order to keep her balanced.
