    #1 and #2 are accounted for. The tough part will be making it a reality in terms of results; especially with competitors like you guys

    Once again....check out the dorsal fin. https://www.iowadnr.gov/idnr/Fishing/Iowa-Fish-Species/Fish-Details/SpeciesCode/ULL Look also at the anal fin.

    Nope take a look at the dorsal fin. In the Quillback the rear part of the dorsal is horizontally extended or elongated while the forepart is much longer and when raised up looks like a "quill" Gizzard Shad

    Back in the late eighties or early nineties when I first started fishing for them on Cape Cod they had to be 40 inches to keep and as the years went along the size went down into the twenties. They built up populations relatively fast when the size limit was 40 inches. Like everything else though things may be more complicated than they seem...the oceans are radically changing, bait populations changing etc. so maybe slot limits may not answer the problem.

    Viruses can also mutate so that they can become an even more complex problem along the way.

    Yeah they are the ones with the maple leaf tatoos on their sides and "Made in Canada" on their underbelly

    No snubbers. My inside wire rods are 6 1/2 ft one piece roller rods. The outside wires are 8 1/2 ft two piece rods; one with twilli tip the other roller tip. For them i use a velcro boat rope strap for the butt, and a yellow coated wire rod securing item (comes in two sizes) for the upper rod half. To secure the wire itself I use a very small bungi cord from the line swivel to a rod eyelet that adjusts the tension and keeps it from slipping. The items can be found at places like Walmart. The yellow velcro straps are in the boating section, the rod securing wires are in the fishing section and the bungi's are in the automotive section.

    The brookies and browns in the streams can be vulnerable to redworm or pieces of nightcrawler (#8 or 6 hook) floated under a pencil bobber small split shot or none at all on ultralites at pretty much any point in the season whether ADK's or just about any other place.

    Coming back in on Honeoye at launch yesterday it was apparent that someone went through right near the concrete abutment of the dock at the ramp ....looked like one leg. Must have been a real sweet drive home.

    If you decide to do the Genesee. I'll bet those guys would really enjoy the white water rafting at Letchworth Park called Adventure Calls https://adventure-calls.com/

    That little guy is going to have great memories for the rest of his life and this is what parenting should be about

    Kicker motor

    I got mine from them in 2016 and am very happy with the motor and pricing.

    Good advice and rod recommendation. I don't think you can go wrong with it.
  20. Sk8man
    And the things he sells are always in nice condition so don't have any reservations

    Kicker motor

    It is a familiar site on the Fingers too Stan; especially during derbies

    Good clear thorough video. Brian.

    I know this doesn't affect lake O and the Fingers but for those who fish the Hudson and other places.... https://www.newyorkupstate.com/outdoors/2020/02/stripped-bass-population-threatened-nys-to-impose-new-size-restrictions-for-keepers.html

    Jimski you may be in danger of being replaced by a robot

    In the pic it looks as though the motor bracket was originally located on the port side of the boat and there is plenty of room there. That is where I would be putting it.
