if it catches fish you can use my remains that way but my brother might beat you to it

if you put a hook in that and pull it in can you use the mink as pike bait?

i was on a charter in the keys as a kid we caught a bunch of dolphin when we go to the dock i asked the captin if he ever missed while he was putting fish on the spikes for pictures. he said never in 20 years and than 5 mins later missed and threw one off the dock his mate (who was his son) yelled "jump in" and he did. he got the fish back and while down there cleaned off some scum from the bottom of the boat we still have the pic of him standing next to my brother dripping wet holding a sock infront of the board of fish. my dad sent him an 8x10 a couple years later we were on his boat again and he had the pic displayed.

i know the white sturgeon in the pacific jump and these sturgeon jump when not hooked my buddys pulled and dogged to the bottom I gotta imagine when they get over 100 pounds it has to be a decent fight even if they just try to hug bottom. i'm just glade the DEC continues to work these kind of restoration projects as well as the gamefish stockings it will only serve to improve the overall health of the waters a diverse eco system is a resilant ecosystem

Tg8 how dare you dampin my optimisium with your science. still i know the stocking in the genny several years back had some good success my buddy caught one about 4 feet long a couple years back and he dec did a survey that showed good numbers surviving. I've seen them caught in the seneca river and i know onieda lake has a good population. Interestingly black lake has a small but very big (size) population and i recently discovered that they have lampreys in there thogh they dont seem to explode in numbers. so i still have hope for cayuga I know they had a huge year class of lampray this year hopfully they will get most of them in the traps and there wont be any flooding this spawning season

i seem to remember sombody wanting to buy lamprys to sell for sturgeon bait if they truly do pray on those blood suckers these little guys could thrive in cayuga id love to see a viable sport (catch and release) fishery for them in new york in my life time people would be a huge draw for tourism and put more money in the conservation fund if cumo lets the dec spend it

always good to help when you see a boater in distress in my life ive given 3 tows and once went in to get a camp owner to help out a stranded boater on black lake (offered tow they declined but asked us to get owner). when my turn came and our engine stalled out 2 miles from the dock someone was nice enough to stop there day and tow us in so karma is definatly worth it.

small boats are nice for us poor folk pick your weather and do some research and lots of options are open to fish just gotta keep an open mind and a back up plan thats the nice part about living in new york if you get blown off a big lake there are lots of rivers and small waters to fish

it can be done quite well its real shallow so you have to have a smaller boat fish the creek channels or the flats around the docs trolling works but if you have an electric its better. its a long drive for me now but used to do it a couple times before ice in every year.

will a romer stick on the braid if you wanna do a double stack or will it slide up if you try to tighten the rod down? i will say i switched to 150lb power pro for my boards this year and I like it way better than the 300lb dacron i was using made me start to think about the riggers

we fished the mouth sunday evening after the boat traffic died off we ended up going 2 for 4 with one jack one about 25 and the two lost were both decent fish lost afer a couple mins not bad for a 2 hour troll all spoons and one sd j-plugs did nothing

its a combo of the browser the OS and the website sometimes to many different softwares just cant communicate just right thats one of the reasons a lot of sites now have the navagation directory on them as well there are a few websites like this for me

i run a 14 foot two when i fish alone i'll still run 3 usually dipsey down rigger and a core to keep them spread but when i have a fishing buddy well run 6 all the time its g cool site to all those rods running on a 5 foot beam boards and cores are a wonderful thing

just under the tabs at the top there is a directory guide it shows every folder you clicked on from the home page you can click on any part to go back there simlar to how you would serch for a file in windows

i agree in order to get the biggest lakers you have to have a healthy population size and low fishing pressure or increased catch and release pressure will help to increase the size but forage definatly plays a large role as well and gobys have become a new part of that equation. they have replaced the sculpin for the most part in the ecosystem but there numbers are far higher and by there nature they are easier prey which is part of why there tendancy is to reproduce rapidly. an easy abundent prey source will serve to help increase the overall size structure of any species that feeds on them readily. Lake trout are not fast growers so it will take time but provided the numbers stay decent and they are not overfished you will see increases in size possibly dramatic ones. as an example i say look at smallmouth. they grow much faster and there are more 4-6 lb fish than ever fishing for them has changed but the numbers and size dont lie.
