Keep fingers out of gill plates......on the finger lakes
fisherdude replied to Gill-T's topic in Finger Lakes Discussion
I fished solo last Saturday . After a outstanding day of fishing . I ended up with cut finger from leaders from the Seth green rigs a couple scratches from I don't what . I was concerned with the algae bloom. At home showered and I used peroxide on cuts. I never put fingers in gills for it cuts the fish survival rate after releasing.

I have also wondered how long before the fish take a hit from the fishing pressure. I keep 2 to 4 fish for consumption every other time out , I get out a couple times a week or try to . I seen charters come back in with pack coolers . Witch is ok by me . I would want to keep fish to take home also . Catch and release.. When the water is cold the fish go back pretty easy. Now it's hot it's much harder to get them to go back . I have had my share of floaters..witch makes me feel I killing the fish just so I can have a good time .. I'm a rookie so this is just imo. I fished Seneca for the most part and move over to Cayuga cause the fishing got hard and the quality die off for me . I got my fingers crossed to see Seneca to return to the pass days and Cayuga to keep producing the way it is . .. Sent from my XT1609 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Deans 7 / 7 Blocked and spider webbed

Deans cove Cayuga is a unman launch . I would guess by getting a ticket and the pay machine is a way they record your number. Thanks for saying now it works at other places. Sounds it's different at other places other than deans cove . At deans you can't use money to get a ticket . My buddy isn't up to date with the times . Doesn't do computers or carry a debit/ credit card. He pays one of the crew the 7 $ with a card . Sent from my XT1609 using Lake Ontario United mobile app -

It explains what you have to do at the ticket machine . If you use the launch during the week and you're over 62 or whatever the ages has to be .you use your New York state driver's license. It can read the barcodes. Big Brother is watching every move we the people do . Sent from my XT1609 using Lake Ontario United mobile app -

Yep I sure did get a warning. parking permit was my on my dash I seen a couple other warnings on windshields of other vehicles. I like using the parking permit card. Just another step to you use the park. Not digging location of the ticket machine. It bottlenecks the launch. I seen guys meet their charter there. They parked on top walk down the hill . find out they have to buy a ticket and have to walk back up the hill put the ticket in the vehicle. .

Showed up at deans and meet the bass guys at 4 : 45 am launching boats . Got my turn little after 5 am . Leaving the cove dodging bass boats inside the cove I'm making my way out through the cones. There's bass boats on each side of the little cone out area with their power poles down. There was two guys inside the cones blocking off the channel going out. I had to rock back and forth from forward to reverse and wait for these guys to get out of the way just to get out. Wish they stage outside the cove and out of the way of others . Fished a little on the west side before turning east .made it out in the middle when we took our second hit on 300 copper down the chute. Landed a nice Laker 10 . 10 on the scale . Sorry no pics left the cell phone in the truck , buddy did get it on the go pro tho . Putting the copper back out I spider web the reel . What a mess took 2 of us 1 1/2 hours to get back in action . Think it even gave me a bad karma day [emoji848] we only did 6 fish total. Two were short locks and four Lakers.When we got back to the launch I meet a couple LOU guys and did well today . Went up to get the truck and found a warning from the park on the wind shield . Man did I sucked today ..[emoji107]. That's the way it goes sometimes I will do better next time . The warning was I have to use the empire pass at the pay machine . . Sent from my XT1609 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Showed up at deans a little after 5 am went to the parking lot to make the boat ready while waiting for my friends to show at 5: 30 . When they got there ( on time as usual) we launch the boat. I went and park the truck and was meet on the way down the steps by the senior member of the group he's a mechanic by trade saying to me you got any jumper cables, umm no I don't ,why ? The power switch is on both batteries and there is not one bit of power . I'm like well let's go fishing . Got in the boat had no power couldn't lower the lower unit had nothing as he said. so I unhook the e z steer rod and pulled started the kicker and way we went . Short time later the kicker charge the batteries so I could lower the lower unit down and hook the EZ steer rod back up . Half way through the morning had enough power to start the i/o . Got to love having a kicker I will say . So today we had a gentleman's Derby 5 bucks a man biggest fish takes all . We did 17 Lakers . The biggest was 9 . 6 or so down to 3 . 3 lbs . I like to say how good my buddies are . Today (really ever time out) they are putting 20 s on the dash for gas . Hey I don't need gas money we are fishing with the kicker what gas I'm I burning . In fact today is my 4 trip out on a 6 gallon can and still didn't empty it . I can't put into words what these guys have done . From putting me up while waiting for my new home to close after my divorce, stored all my stuff, helping fix the boat when needed . I hope it's true what they say about karma because they sure have a lot of good coming their way. As always thanks guys [emoji3] Sent from my XT1609 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Ok politics F the safety gear....l voted for Trump that being said I think the guy is a loose Cannon . Seen he had signed the order to attack Iran last night .Had the Navy in attack position and the planes in the air then gave the abort orders . So close to world war, he's a loose Cannon.
