Nice fish -
Had a blast doing this tourney. Finished 25th or 26th by looking at the board. Not bad for having my boat less than a year. Caught a ton just couldn't find any over 18 with some weight. Good to see a pair of teams I know finish in the top 5.

Love taking kids out fishing and seeing that smile on their face when they are so happy they caught fish. Just priceless.

I know this. I break balls with the best of them.

Hell I have over half a dozen stingers in the garage that I need to strip and repaint because of the same problem. But wait there isn't a problem because it doesn't happen. LMAO

I can't find the charging adapter. Is there an app for the Iphone that can charge them?

I am starting to buy some flies to add to the tackle box. I see this E-Chip on a lot of stuff now. Is it worth the extra money? I am willing to try it out vs the same color without it. But figured it was a question worth asking. I most likely will be buying them from A-TOM-MIK. Just placing a big order to have a good selection. Opinions welcome. LOL

been looking for black for a while since a lot of you guys said black. Finally yesterday I found some. I bought 2 to add to the group. Hope to try them thursday or friday.

Went out on Oneida for a couple of hours in the morning. Had other stuff to do. Only got 1 eye, 11 pickeral ( bastards) and one smallmouth. All my buddies hammered them.

Really? No opinion on this at all? HMMMMMM

Still deep in my research and buying equipment. Looking at getting a bunch of flies to start up that part of my equipment. I keep coming across the Hootchie's. Do you guys use them at all. Most everything that I read on here is all about the trolling flies. The hootchies seem more economical but if they don't catch fish I am not going to waste my money. Just wanted the opinion of the masses.

Oswego/Mexico bay 5/2
ducks517 replied to ducks517's topic in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)
Yeah I am far to gone into the addiction. I have already bought 8 new rod/reel combos for the big O this year. Along with a ton of extra equipment and lures. Hell I didn't have a spoon or fly before winter. Now I must have 50-75. Good thing about all the tackle is it should last a while. -
I run a 19' aluminum boat and his was roughly a 25' or better. With no one around just think you would be nice enough to swing a bit wider. Guess not everyone has good morals and common sense. [ Post made via iPhone ]

While out yesterday in Mexico Bay I was all alone to start the morning. Not another boat within 500yds or more. I had all my lines out on a slow troll at 2.5. Me and my buddy see this boat coming straight at us wondering what he is doing. He proceeded to fly by us going roughly 20-25mph creating a huge wake but only swung to the side of us by about 50yrds roughly. To say I was a bit pissed was an understatement. If I can swing out wide while going around any boat I will. Certainly won't fly by someone that close at full speed. The cooler on the back said "tackle one". I am wrong at thinking he should have had swung out wider to go by? Maybe it's me just not wanting to upset other fisherman. [ Post made via iPhone ]

Was wondering yesterday if I should use a flasher but choose not to. I got a king and a laker off of spoons behind dipsy's. Might try flasher next time out. Never hurts to experiment I guess.
-
I went out in search of kings yesterday and used bright green almost lime green color dipsy divers. One I had a green snubber and the other a red snubber. Got the king on the green/green and a laker on the green/red combo. Just wondering if the dipsy color matters all that much. If so what are the hotter colors you guys use?

Already addicted to these fish. Can't wait to get a 20-30lb king on the line. Was smiling for a while after that one. -
Fishing Report Your Name / Boat Name: ============== TRIP OVERVIEW ============== Date(s): 5/2 Time on Water: 7am-11am Weather/Temp: Wind Speed/Direction: Waves: Surface Temp: Location: LAT/LONG (GPS Cords): =============== FISHING RESULTS =============== Total Hits: 5 Total Boated: 3 Species Breakdown: brown, first laker, first king Hot Lure: Trolling Speed: 2.2-2.5 Down Speed: Boat Depth: 60-80 Lure Depth: all over ==================== SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS ==================== Well being this is my first year fishing Lake Ontario we have had a good year in my opinion. Today I didn't want the browns. My sole goal was to catch my first king. Was a nice 11lb fish. Mission accomplished. Hit that dipsy/spoon combo hard as hell. Bent that pole over bad. Fought pretty good. Couldn't get the smile off of my face. After a bit pulled in our first Lake trout as well. Then as we were pulling in all the lines and a 5lb brown hit another spoon we had out on a rigger. Never moved the pole will I released it from the clip. Being new and only reading things on the net it was a learning curve on much line to let out on the dipsys. But we needed to start somewhere. Had a blast!!!
