Lets not go to anarchy I agree but the system doesn't work unless you have your own land. The problem is deer age class. There are good populations of deer around NY not what it used to be ten to fifteen years ago but there are plenty of deer. I have friends that own property in areas that have great bucks, but they don't see them, only on camera. I'm Lucky enough to have a piece of land that i can choose what is killed and how I manage its carrying capacity. If I want to see bucks that are over 3.5 yrs old on my land one thing is mandatory, stay the heck outta there til its time to kill, Nov 1-15... If you get busted you have probably lost your chance unless he's really comfy holing up his doe on your land. Its each land owners right to shoot what they want I'll never tell someone that they should shoot a certain age class deer, it would be nice if more guys follow a bit of deer management but they do eat very well so I'll just keep working harder to shoot a three yr old or better. And I will keep complaining about our state government that doesn't do its "little job" representing our rights as land owners... Sent from my C771 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I love the long dipsy lead on my dipsys. The action you get out of your SD or paddle makes a big difference. Also its a great way to add " stealth" 15-18' but any longer is too much IMO. side note, I fish finger lakes mostly. Running wire on your dipsy setup is also key.

So you are laughing cause you agree or do you think I'm an idiot? Seriously I like the show but I couldn't tell you one captains name or what they do besides run a thirty foot yacht after small salmon. There is never a mention as to what a Twinkie rig is? Meat rig? The show never mentions one technique for fishing these fish. Dipsy rods, lead cores, copper, what's the difference between a spin doctor and a paddle? Not saying I know all this stuff but it would be a great add on for the show. An equipment section that explains and sells some of the gear would be cool. Water depths, water temps, how the lake stratifies, how that affects fish and bait all info that would be sellers for depth finders and temp probes. Sponsors are probably trying to get Wicked Tuna guys to run their gear. That show makes it personal between captains... Just a friendly suggestion to add onto my second favorite show on TV!

So find a college that has video production as a major, get the students to have their project be a reality based fishing show based on lake Ontario. There has to be a few guys out there that are like Dave Marciano.. Huk sponsors them, BPS, ect.. It doesn't have to be about tournaments it could be about struggling captains. That guy that is the announcer for salmon showdown is dry! Sorry bud. Love the show but History channel has the market on reality TV . make it real and people will watch!

In the finger lakes... Do you guys think the overall bait profile has changed from smelt to alewifes? Do you think the fish are eating more perch fry and gobies? Sculpin are there too. I think that fish, like deer know what is best for their diet per that time of year. Or are they just opportunity eaters? I believe that if you match the hatch (what they are eating now) you will catch em. Will any lure that is shiny catch a fish? sure but the one that fools that big fish is the one that sometimes makes a difference. That lure may be the one that matches what's in its belly and that is why we need to keep experimenting with colors and shapes. Dial em in. Sent from my C771 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
