  1. thanks for the report ,going out tomorrow morning out of pultneyville
  2. for what its worth I saw the best schools of bait ive seen in along time in thirty feet of water bass fishing last night.maybe the fish are close to the bottom at the thermocline.
  3. I heard from a erie fisherman that the bass in erie are concentrated around old wrecks.Its the same as here sporadic at best.Nothing like before the dreaded goobie.
  4. We all can remeber how good smallmouth fishing use to be in lake ontario.I think it would take a massive restocking to bring make the bass to a good fishery.It would also help control the gooby .We should contact our legistators and the DEC to find the money to get the stocking program going.There are bass left but not enough to fish them as a recreational fishery.
  5. good luck fishing tomorrow nick,ill be off pultneyville tomorrow morning.
  6. Sometimes plates dispear stolen,it happened to me and others many times.Sorry to hear your out for the year due to your hand.
  7. hi jason, I was fishing off pultneyville bass fishing.Saw you out there but it was to late for me as the front was coming through soon.Ever get into any trouble out there feel free to call me,blue dolphin ,.Im in the dockage on the north end of the club.P-12 john
  8. after thursday the forcast is south winds.Should be good fishing.
  9. Hi, A few weeks ago I installed the sp110 sitex on my 1987 searay.It uses a octopus mechanical drive unit that has been in production for 20 years.Its canadian made not chinesee junk.It seemed like a tough job that might need a installer but after reading the instructions several times and contacting the manufacturer everything got done .Now I could do it in about three hours at the most.The unit works very good and have no isues with slow speed problems that were reported. Its alot easier now to troll with the autopilot.
  10. went to 40 lb big game about 200 ft a reel and few fleas.I hear that the fleas tend to get bigger and often 30 lb. is not enough later on the season.
  11. Keep your baits up .This year at least 18 in off bottom and youll avoid the dreaded gobie.Oh if you happen to catch a small one the bass hit them well.Do it all the time.Going out now.
  12. Great fish.We caught a would be derby winner many years ago the night before the derby.It was a 38 lber .This was the largest we ever caught in many many years of fishing the kings.
  13. thirty or forty pound test keeps the fleas to a minunm
  14. have you had any luck using 40 lb test line nick?
  15. fleas were heavy monday.I did find a good spray for biting flies.Deep woods with deet kept them off pretty good ,Just had to spray every other hour.The fish off pultneyville were deep 90 foot or more.Hope you guys all do wel this weekend.
  16. bass is alot better now that the water warmed up. Try lookin around water intake piped along the lake.Also driop offs and look for bait around dropoffs and ledges.I have good luck searching for them first with my color garmin 178c and then fishing them.Make sure to keep bait off the bottom at least a foot.
  17. I bet your son realy liked the big fish.Reminds me of when my sons were his age.You got him hooked of fishing now.
