I'm looking to go for trout this weekend! I am not looking for hot spots or lures! I am just new to the ice and wondering what the conditions of the ice are for either owasco lake or keuka lake I see some post about keuka but any other info on the ice situation would be appreciated!!!
Thank you joe

I smacked the divers pretty good this year for not having the huge push of ducks like we had last we still managed some great hunts filling some limits on a couple days and close on others

Well the boat has not sold yet so to the water I went with buddies jake and butch!! Launched at around 8.30 or so fished until 1!!! Started with 3 bites and under 5minutes thought was going to be one of those great days but wrong!!! Didn't mark much fished all water levels only real consistent bite was a 180 mag diver pulling echip!! Landed few small salmon and lakers got a nice pike and lost a bunch more fish couldn't keep them locked guess was a little rusty lol!!! Oh well lots of fun stills my laughs and good to get out on the water!!! Boat preformed flawlessly, even after sitting the last 2 months while I hang out in the woods!!!

The boat is located in Horseheads ny, I have had it on Lake Ontario in five footers and not going to say it was enjoyable but was able to fish them!!! As for hours I would guess I put a few hundred hours on it in the last 2 season this year the boat was only used for tournaments so less hours then the previous year and I can not speak of the hours for previous owner maybe 20 hours a summer but even that could be high number for some years!! I do keep a sea anchor on board trolls fine with out it but as mentioned use it for a higher rpm and also when fishing a following sea!!! And no that is Seneca not Cayuga

well it is time for a upgrade, the boat was purchased brand new from my grandparents through Ervays marina. the gentleman that bought it purchased it and the matching shorlander trailer in 1997 and hardly ever used it, I am the second owner and, bought the boat two summers ago and the boat had sat in a barn for the previous four years until I became the owner and I have used it regularly since. lower unit oil, impeller, and plugs all changed in the spring also the plugs have been changed once since, the 115 merc is a oil injected two stroke that drops two cylinders at low idle.. this boat has served me flawlessly and been a crucial roll in a few different wins over the past few season...
includes:
2-cannon mag 20 marlin series riggers mounted on a aluminum adjustable track across the back
2- 24" cannon tracks
2- berts ratcheting rod holders
2- aluminum triple trees
2-tite lok rod holders
2- perko holders
lowrance elite 7hdi finder/gps
bose 4 speaker marina grade stereo
uniden radio
live well and raw water pump with wash down
both tires new inside the last year
the boat has always been barn kept in the winter ever since new and, even now is in a pole barn year round unless in use..
$5,500

Well yesterday nick helped me celebrate my 23 birthday with a nice morning of fish and cards aboard Reel Stories. Left the dock a little before 7 as the sun came up and greeted us with a cool crisp morning! Set up shop right out of the shoot fishing was not fast and furious but we did manage a nice salmon and some nice lake trout including one that was just over 10 made for a great birthday with great friends thanks nick Brandon and bill had a few pretty intense games of euchre that led to the good ol jump up and run for a rod game haha. Fleas were around but not horrible and weeds well let's just say we found them!!!
