Interesting you say that Pappy. I tried to dig into it too, probably not as well as you have and was baffled that I could not find a "marine" solution that did not require a fixed/directional position. Just thought there had to be a cheaper cell signal solution to the more expensive XM satellite option, but like any item; put the word boat/marine in front of it and the price is 10X.

A good point, I knew someone would mention that suggestion. I do have a VHF, it's just that the current radar and track on a cell phone screen is nice to have.

I am looking for some type of cell signal amplifier to use on my boat. Other than communication, I use my cell for weather radar updates out on the Lake. Ideally I would be nice to have the Sirius/XM Weather receiver, but the receiver and new display I would need is expensive. Does anyone out there have a solution for boosting the signal received from land based cell towers that will improve my cell reception on the boat?

Share your best catch(es) for the 2017 fishing season

I've just always fished. Never a great fisherman, but I always loved the outdoors. My earliest memory is bullhead fishing with my Dad on the Chenango River. From there is was always the occasional bass, perch and sunny. My most vivid memory was when I was 12 and fishing with my Dad and friends in the 1000 Islands. I caught a 32" Northern and it was the thrill of my life. In high school and college it was bass and walleyes in the rivers around Chenango Bridge, sitting on an overgrown lock wall that hadn't been used for 150 years casting for bass; reading the river and zeroing in on bass with a six pack looped through my belt. I went to college up in North and discovered the Adirondacks. Fishing for trout in lakes, with one of my best memories being a day that myself and two of my roommates limited out on trout (10 apiece back then). What a day. We went back to the college and had a huge fish fry (the kegorator helped too). I spend years chasing trout after that, never had as good a day as that. Hitting streams around Syracuse and making trips back to the Adirondacks to hike back into remote lakes to fish, camp, and if we were lucky, use those bread crumbs we brought to fry up some trout. In between trips to the 1000 Islands for bass and northerns have peppered the years. Seven years ago I got a boat and got into the Lake Ontario trolling thing. What an education. The best part about it has been great days on the water, learning as much as I can. All those years of fishing and knowledge, but trolling out on Lake Ontario was like learning a new language, but I'm now catching some nice fish and hopefully creating some great memories for my kids. In the future, I dream of trying big game in the Florida Keys, maybe someday when I retire. Hopefully I'm passing it on to my kids. They have loved yanking sunnies and perch and the occasional rock bass out from by the dock. I've got them helping to reel in some nice salmon and steelhead, even got my wife to reel a big one one in (now she gets it). Dad got me started, and we still fish. We got out twice this year, got Dad a nice steelhead; last outing we got blanked, limited time fishing as we were chased off the water by storms, but sharing a nice time on the water and a beer at the dock (maybe more than one) I'm not the best fisherman, but I've always fished.

Wave heights
Quiet Man replied to Fishbowl836's topic in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)
Here is the link to the NOAA marine point forecast for Lake Ontario. Gives you the wave forecast based on your location on the water (as everyone states, take the forecasted wave height and double it, that's the biggest wave you'll likely see). http://www.crh.noaa.gov/greatlakes/?c=haz&l=lo&p=a -
Picton is a great spot, with good docking and walking distance to town for restaurants, etc. If you get East towards Bath, the Loyalist Cove marina is very nice, showers, kitchen area and grill area; pump out, etc. Nice people.
