  1. Way to go! Nice start to your year!!! Sent from my XT1080 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  2. Ive had a couple decent hauls the last few years, in fact im eating part of one of those hauls right now, but no doubt Jeff smoked us last year....BAD!!! I'll be in the mix this time!!!! Sent from my XT1080 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  3. The 9 comes with a cover too. Cody got them half price with his Dicks Pro form so its not the end of the world, but I bet they will do something about it. Ill know Monday.
  4. Thank you Gill-T...couldnt agree more! Tracy, Cody, and I are all signed.
  5. I avoid the 3 ways because I like to be able to reel the swivel past the eyes in order to store rods. Sent from my XT1080 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  6. I hope you get into em....Id love to read about somebody getting some eyes! 1st Saturday in may cant come soon enough!!
  7. So cody's 2 elite 7 chirp units were delivered today and come to find out the sun covers dont come with the units. They are a $20 add on from lowrance. I cant believe a $700 dollar unit cant come with a 2 cent piece of plastic. Im gonna call tomorrow and make sure they know how I feel about it!!
  8. Sorry for your loss Matt. Makes me remember my hound Lil. We lost her a year and half ago and just reading the posts here brings tears to my eyes.
  9. Good to hear Pete! Hopefully we will get more typical summer fishing. I picked a horrible weekend last year...it was the only weekend all season I didnt boat a walleye.
  10. Ive been using my main motor for thrust and my terrova 80 lb for steering on my 21 foot pontoon for 3 seasons when im solo and have been very happy with it, but I wish I had the 112. Running both motors really helps my boat track better as pontoons are like sails in the wind. The auto pilot function cant handle my boat unless its flat. The 60 inch shaft is just long enough for my toon in rougher conditions so be sure not to short yourself as mentioned above.
  11. Cody has worked hard for his toy and Im very proud and happy for him! Cant wait till he graduates college in May. Ive sure been blessed with 2 great kids!
  12. Here's a pic...power-pole and 2 lowrance elite 7 chirp combos are on their way! Gotta get his boat rigged so I can get mine out and get some work done on it!

  14. If you call the DEC region office for your region they will answer your questions and send you your books along with instructions. The angler diaries are a lot of work if you fish alot, but it's one of the few ways to help the DEC manage our fisheries, and I think keeping a log has helped my fishing alot. I keep track of a lot more detail than they ask for then transfer the info they are after into the books.
  15. Bad year down here too! First no snow at all then way too much....we had some fun though.
  16. I was thinking the same thing! I love trolling but its a ton of work in the finger lakes with the weeds! If I dont have people to take out I will definitely get out on it alot...Cody can fish for bass and Ill fish for Tigers! Im gonna have to get a laker jigging lesson from Hermit because I think that would be fun with a bass boat. My toon is a bit of a pain to trailer and we end up staying on Otisco, but his boat is a piece of cake to trailer, launch, etc.
  17. One of the guys in my lease just picked up a Barrett 50 bmg and has a Sako in 338. He lives in Tennessee, but comes up to visit at least once during the summer. It would be a ball to get together and do some serious shooting. I have room to shoot the Barrett about a mile!
  18. Does anyone interested have a problem with Saturday July 18th. Im open to any date other than the 4th of july.
  19. Exactly! Deploy slowly and you wont have any trouble until you net. It can be a bit of a mess in the net though. The only time I use it is when its slow.
  20. Sean, Our lease in Owego has 1000+ yard shooting. Id be happy to meet up with you and shoot this summer. I usually only shoot to about 800 as Im using a 25wssm which is a bit light to shoot beyond that unless its very calm. My favorite is to use 12-24 inch balloons scattered around at different ranges. I havent shot much last couple years because we are up at the lake, but I was planning on making some time during the week this year.
  21. 3500 seems like a really fair price. I better start saving!
  22. Captain Larry, Awesome stuff!! Everyone sees these fish caught on TV, but they dont tell you what goes on behind the scenes that makes it all possible. How many pounds of drag are you putting on those huge cats with the Penn 309m? What's the ballpark figure for one of these once in a lifetime trips? I know its out of my budget, but I can certainly dream about it! Thanks for the stories I appreciate you sharing them.
  23. The Seaguar Red Label is mainline not leader. The blue and yellow is invizx also not leader but an excellent supple mainline. I used blue label last couple years and this year Ill be trying the premier.
  24. Great fish Captain Larry! Thanks for sharing....I sure would be up for anymore stories from your trip you might share with us!
