    Repowered my boat with a larger motor and am offering this 1996 Mercury 60 hp ELPTO outboard. Includes flush mount controls, prop and remote ignition. Trim Tilt was replaced with a NEW (all metal and cost $1,000) version just over a year ago. Motor runs well and served me well it just is to small for my boat. Winterized properly every year and I only used NON-Ethanol gas. The only issue I had more recently was with key ignition module at the end of last season. Since it is no longer on my boat nor connected up, I cannot start it. I am selling this as is..Parts or whatever. Its located on Chautauqua Lake. Anyways, $1,100/BO. Pick up only. -Eric

    Do I have to bring my boat to mayville or can I just drive my truck there to register? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    New to Muskie fishing here, but I am all in. So...I am hoping to attend this as my 1st tournament. Where can I go to find out more info about the rules and such. If I missed any of these answers in one of the previous posts I apologize in advance. Do I need a bump board? If so where can I buy it (I am from buffalo/Chautauqua) My boat is in the water in Asheville...do I need to drive it up to mayville for the start? How do I register the fish I catch? Most important...who do I give the correct spelling of my name to for the winning trophy?!?!??!!! [emoji16] -ericmic Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    Been here all week. Haven't seen anyone fishing for Muskie. Just bass walleye and panies. But it is a big lake... This is my 1st spring for Muskies. Can't wait till tomorrow. I will be throwing the south basin up to bemus/toms. Water is very clear. Temps today were 65+ on surface this evening. Morning was 62 ish. I run a red tracker targa. -ericmic1 Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    My 1st Muskie was pure accident...was perch fishing a weedline on Chautauqua with ultra light and 4lb test. Thought I snagged a bucket of weeds till I noticed the line swimming the wrong direction...few moments later she came up next to boat. Friend said "should I get the net..." Raised her 2 mores times. Landed and released in good shape (as far as i could tell). 40" Muskie...I didn't play it a lot. I just gentlely convinced it to come up. I had 4lb test and only maybe 50yrds of line so I followed her with my front trolling motor for a bit till she could be nudged up. That was the single best catch in fresh water for me...

    Thanks PF, The 1st pic is a video, you have to click the picture to see it. Caught a cpl more over the holiday, my neighbor thought i was full of beans when I said I was using a piece of rope...that is until he came out with me and landed a couple himself.

    Thanks again for the help with these toothy techniques! Took my brother out and he got this 38"er Click picture to see the video...[VIDEO] Caught a bunch of them ike these by myself...[PICS] -ericmic1

    Wow, you guys did it again. Valuable, usefull info! I used the advice here and caught my 1st gar saturday, was a blast the rope lures i made took a bunch of hits before I could get them to get stuck. Sunday was even better, caught a bunch. Hardest part for me was releasing them, I used a glove to pick them up (safely) but the rope I was using was really really stuck in their mouths (any advice here?). I thought about prying their mouths open and picking it out with long pliers...is this the right way? Thanks again! -ericmic1

    ericmic1 replied to tcon's topic in Walleye

    Sorry for the delay on my report...busy with work and school. Got out friday night about 2am. 5 minutes in landed a 22". Did a few more passes then moved to deeper ledge - notta there Moved up the Bemus area and got another 22". Back on dock around 5:30am Saturday didnt fish at all during day...was too dam tired was tired and just did 4 passes in same area..Landed a 23" and a 16" (released for next year) was back on dock at 10pm The late start (friday)and full(ish) moon (fri/sat) made it tough...but still fun as hell. I was trolling Thundersticks and color does matter =) -ericmic1

    Geez Capt Larry, Maybe you should invest in a refinery...might actualy be cheaper, lol. tcon, I am sure you wont be missing much. There arent any walleye in Conesus anyways =). fly, forecast for friday has winds out of the west from 10-15mph, if that influences your decision. Rather everyone is safe than be selfish and have Chautauqua for myself. ...cant wait cant wait...

    Thanks Capt Larry, That was the station I was refering to and I am psyched about it. He is about .50-.75 lower than the marinas. For those in Buffalo area, Noco on Route 5 in Lackawana has 91 octane that is Eth-Free too. Since I work just down the road I can either fill up my tanks there or pick it up at Crouch's if I dont work that day.
