  1. Yea I’m with Brian, go after easiest fish to get your hands on. As a matter of fact break loose one day, (not sure of ages), get some worms, bobbers etc and get over to north end of Cayuga. Sunnies all day with a mix of bass. Kids would love it. If their older, and you think it’s under them, go for the lakers. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

  3. As a means. Sorry. Damn spell check.... Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United
  4. They must of recently changed their stance. Back in April they were allowing online courses as a mess as is of being certified due to Covid. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

  6. It’s been so long I couldn’t remember, now she’s in it for next I bet. Glad she was out there with ya. CP, nice rainbow. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  7. What a grind.... I still think we didn’t place any fish this year because I never got a 2020 pin to put in my visor. Lol. Superstitious.....yep. So we ended with nothing bigger than 7.5 lbs with an avg size of 4-5 lbs. A total of 29 for the weekend, 75% of them on the gamblers in deep water. Slow moving. The rest were on copper wire on the shelf’s. My oldest son is a natural now with a pflueger. Wish I gave him more time and it wasn’t so windy. Couldn’t catch a fish on junk lines. Just too slow but I sure tried to get the Sutton’s to roll. Monday we only ended with two and I’d say we fished the hardest that day in the wind. What we had sat and sun was gone for Monday. As I mentioned before, lots of lampreys and scarred fish. We need those under control no doubt. Kudos to PA27 who always is into good fish. Also to MJ B. I think it was her first derby, Ron will have to correct me but sported a spot in Woman’s. Nice going. Also had a Brother who stood strong for a while but managed to stay in a spot in the men’s category the last day. I told myself I was going to relax a little more this derby, I think I accomplished that. Had a good cigar and put the auto pilot on. It was good chatting it up with other Lou members at the dock or seeing them out on the water. Roy Boys, as always thanks for the hospitality. Till next year.

  8. God bless him for his dedication. One hell of an advocate for this sport Whaler! Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United
  9. Sounds good Nick, maybe see if there’s any interest in doing it the weekend prior vs the day prior. Might get the guys that are somewhat superstitious of catching a derby winner the day before. Just an idea. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

  11. Brett, hats off to you for putting something together for folks that could fish. Kudos. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  12. I’m in agreement on the lamprey issue. I would say we would first have to agree there’s something wrong with population / size of lakers. It appears we’re missing a yrs class or two. I would like to hope it’s on the rebound and that stocking will make up the loss in the next 3-5 yrs with these 4-6 lbrs maturing to the 10+. I had plenty of lampreys in my boat with every other fish scared. I sure hope it’s high on the list to fix. If it’s not the lamprey, then it needs to be found out real soon. Personally I think the bait is a good thing. Rather have it than not. Look at Keuka. You won’t need Kings, plus it would create more of a dilemma with the fisheries and competition. Lakers will chomp every sawbelly they can grab. You just have to have them in the lake......... Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  13. Also before you cut, check to make sure the factory didn’t flip them backwards. You might be able to just flop them toggle shorter ends. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  14. I would say if it trailers good and is set up correctly you could just shorten them. Just have to do it carefully unwrapping the carpet so when your finished shortening the wood you can rewrap the end nicely and not have to redo the whole bunk. I wouldn’t leave it like that though, just my luck sorta of thing if you know what I mean. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  15. Betti, just a side note, you may want to check how far your boat is up on the trailer. Your bunk boards are sticking out and may rip off your transducer if loaded kilted. Just something to look at. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  16. Yep Les. Patience will be key. With these temps, fish are all over the place. Don’t leave fish to find fish. If your not marking them find a new spot. Don’t overthink things. You guys know this. Good luck to everyone out there. Be safe. Should be good weather. I’ll be following that whaler out there....... Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  17. Yes, thank you Dennis. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  18. I’m in agreement on the 2 person min. It’s not about making anyone feel like there not good enough or experienced enough. We all have stories of the bad examples. We’re talking Lake Ontario I’m assuming. Might be a little different on the finger lakes, not that bad things can’t happen but your zone of safety is completely different than lake o. As far as other tournys like Bass typically Ive only participated in them where riders or non boaters were mandatory. PDFs were mandatory while running. And yes I wear my ignition kill switch when fishing alone when running. I think you have a good idea. Hope something comes from it. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  19. Dennis do you happen to have a count of current registrants as of today? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  20. Thanks guys. Gill I’d be lying if I didn’t say was digging through my recent spoon purchases last night to find those color spoons you showed the other day...... every bit helps. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  21. Unsung hero! Give him tons of credit for what he does and gets accomplished. Kudos to him and to you Dad! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  22. Took a trip up to the big O with Signalman thinking that the Sodus area wasn’t just ready yet for me. Took some tips from Whaler (Thanks) and off we went started in 60 worked out too 100fow. Spoons. Anything with green then to black. 45-70 down. 100 ft on dipsey. Marks were all over the place. Can I just say how nice the water looked...... green........ Went 6-7. Fun day. Hats off to launch folks. They had there A game on today. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  23. You’ll be so surprised at the difference in actual ball depth to what your DF reads. I’m typically seeing a 8-15ft swing at times with 13lb weights depending on speed n currents. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
