thanks for the heads up. I like to launch at Bear Creek but they haven't put in their dock yet because the machine that does it is broke. It's always something

went out this afternoon to see if everything works, and thankfully it does.\ We launched at the free community launch next to Arney's in Sodus. The water was like l 1/2 ft deep. a bit scary.

another note on Bear Creek. In the summer in the evening it seems to be a popular place for the ski do's to run. And most of the owners of these machines do not live in town, and do not have parking passes, plus they park with their trailers on the lake side of lake road. Which makes it very congested. And I have never seen a cop or Ontario employee check them. makes it tough for a regular fisherman to get in and out.

thanks for the replies guys. I like the one with the wine cork especially . A good reason for a glass of wine. LOL

I was reading the new Outdoor Life magazine and they said to put 80 to 150 pound test braid on your downrigger to repace the wire cable to carry the weights down. This will get ride of the hum and is much less visible to spooky fish. I'm not sure if this would be a good idea? what do you guys thinK?

I think i am beginning to get good at this stuff. ==================== SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS ====================

Thanks for the advice guys. The reason I asked was there were a few posts that mentioned browns now? So I was just wondering. Maisie

Question here. Do you fish browns the same way you do in the spring with planer boards? thanks ahead of time Maisie

Fishing Report Your Name / Boat Name: Maisie ============== TRIP OVERVIEW ============== Date(s): 6/16/ Time on Water: 4 hrs Weather/Temp: warm Wind Speed/Direction: calm just like a mill pond Waves: none Surface Temp: 64 Location: LAT/LONG (GPS Cords): =============== FISHING RESULTS =============== Total Hits: 3 Total Boated:2 Species Breakdown: trout Hot Lure: orange crush Trolling Speed:2.7 Down Speed: 2.3 Boat Depth: 130 to 155 Lure Depth: 110 ==================== SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS Went out of Bear Creek with a couple of fishing buddies. graphed quite a few fish. got two. Which means we are getting better. Alot of boats circleling in the water? I find that you can't always go by what someone caught a day or two ago. so changing lures is something I am getting good at. ====================

the boat that we are trying to fix had a leak. the screws that held the transducer were not put in properly and it leaked like crazy. this is a boat we bought. It was listing so we removed all the old foam. and of course fixed the leak. We removed the foam because it was all wet. I am not sure i would like to put in foam again. I was wondering how you felt about putting in the foam boards you get a Lowes, cut up in the boat. This way water could flow out without a problem. we are lucky the stupid thing didn't sink.

thank you

I am going to buy some flotation foam for my boat as the old stuff is really water logged. What product would you suggest. thanks

Hello, I think these mounts are to small. sorry, if you live close to Rochester you can come check them out. I put then next to our cannon DR's and they are just to small

The dimensions of the flat top of the gimble mounts are 4" x 4". It might be to small. and there are only four holes on each corner. So I don't know. I asked husband he didn't think so. Sorry.

The size of the drift socks: the small one is 271/2 by 29 1/2 the large one is 39" by 45"
