  1. Awesome fish!!! Congrats!!! Sent from my SM-G973U using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  2. Yes sir we did start the petition on the request of one of our members Andy Ohl. We have reached out to not just bass clubs but all fishing clubs. The online petition has already gotten 400 plus signatures and also we have paper copies to get signatures. We have also given it out to the Ohio and PA chapters of Muskies Inc as they frequent the lake often. So it has been made available to anyone and everyone that agrees with it to get signed. It's going really well so far Sent from my SM-G973U using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  3. Hey guys please make sure to sign the online petition for the herbicide applications on Chautauqua Lake. The petition link is pinned at the top of the board. We really appreciate it thank you and here is an article that was written on it so far. https://alleghenyvoice.com/ Sent from my SM-G973U using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  4. Hey guys we have started an online petition to see if we can get heavier restrictions with the herbicide applications on Chautauqua Lake. Please go to the link below and sign if you can. We need as many signatures as possible so please it's important everyone signs this. It is our responsibility as anglers to protect these fisheries especially Chautauqua. These signatures will go to the NYS DEC to help prevent any further damage to the precious ecosystem in the lake from last years application. Please help!

  6. It definetly is an uphill battle for sure but if all of the anglers, and clubs come together to fight this maybe they will get the point! I feel that the attitude of "it's too hard" or "we will lose in the end anyways" is unacceptable. It is our duty as responsible anglers to protect our fisheries to the best of our ability. Phone calls, written letters, and emails take minutes to write up and send and I beileve if every angler on here took a couple minutes to do these letters, emails, and phone calls it would make a great impact. It does not matter whether you target bass, walleye, muskie, or any other species this is to protect the lake and it's natural habitats from being eradicated! Please if you have ever fished Chautauqua Lake or are just part of the brotherhood of fishing please help in this fight as we need everyone we can get. Call, write, or email local officials and DEC officers for region 9 to protect this wonderful lake from becoming a destroyed fishery. It is yours, mine, and every other anglers and keeper of the lake to do so! Thanks guys!!! Sent from my SM-G973U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

  8. Hey guys just wanted to put out a reminder that we have a meeting this coming Monday Jan 20th starting at 7pm at the Moose Lodge in Henrietta. This is an open meeting so members and non members are invited to hear about projects and tourneys for this upcoming year. Also we have opened an apparel store for everyone to enjoy! This store will be open for a couple weeks where everyone can purchase club apparel. People can pick different colors for shirts, hats, etc and their specific sizes it really is awesome so please check it out! The way it will work is once we close the online store it will take 2 weeks for the store to get all the apparel made and we will distribute from there. Have a look and let us know what you think! https://nymi69.itemorder.com/ Sent from my SM-G973U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

  11. We just concluded the last tournament of the season which was the Big Baller Tournament and overall it went really good. We had 43 anglers with one of those being a youth angler and 28 legal fish were caught. I dont have the paperwork yet but I do have the winners so I figured I would post. 1st place was won by Chad Lapa and Andy Lacko 2 of the nicest guys anyone could know. Congrats guys!!! Great work! Second place went to Mark Calabrese and Bish again great work fellas!!! 3rd Place went to Brian "Captain Chaos" Clark and his partner Rob Carr. Terrific job guys and special thanks to Brian "Captain Chaos" Clark for being such an unselfish individual. Truly an outstanding individual that is a great benefit to the sport. Thank you sir! I am sorry I was unable to make the tournament but want to thank John Milizia, Mike Fafinski, and Mike Breen for running this tournament. It takes alot of work in the background and lots of driving time to run these tournaments. Thank you so much for taking care of the tournament for the guys! Also thank you so much to everyone that came out to fish the tournament we truly hope you enjoyed your selves! This being the first time we have run the tournament I am interested in hearing what people thought good and bad. So if you guys have suggestions or corrections on this tournament please private message me to let us know where we can improve or if you thought it was good the way it is. We would like to continue this in our rotation next year and the upcoming years and we want to make it the best possible event we can for you guys. You can also email me privately at [email protected] and let me know how we did. Thanks everyone and we hope you enjoyed your season! Sent from my SM-G973U using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  12. Guys a reminder we will be having our big baller CASTING ONLY tournament on Chautauqua lake one week from today. Early registration is available on our website at www.nymusky.com. please try and do early registration as it frees up the launch and much less paperwork. The regular rules will apply but no trolling of any kind. The cost is $100 per angler and it will be 100% payout. We will also have registration from 6-7am at Prendergast launch and the awards will be done at the launch immediately following the tournament. The tournament runs from 7am-330pm and we would like you to be back at Prendergast launch no later then 415pm please so we can total up points and give out awards. Please make sure that you take FULL fish pics on the bump board and the button is in the picture. If these rules aren't followed the fish will not count, NO EXCEPTIONS. This is the first year we are doing this so if there is enough participation we will continue doing the tournament. Thanks everyone and hope to see you out there should be a great time!

  14. Couple things we have going on right now...one is John Farrell from the Thousand Island Biological study is asking for any guys that fish the St. Lawrence to sign up for the angler diary program. What this is if you are unfamiliar is a small booklet you would keep onboarding your boat and log how long you fished, if any fish were caught, and date then at the end of the season you would mail that booklet back into him so he can get data on catch rate to time spent. As anglers it is very important to help in these studies anyway we can so please if you fish the St. Lawrence private message me on here or email us at [email protected] and I will make sure you get a diary. Also we have the Waneta tournament coming up Saturday October 5th which is also our Chapter Challunge, and our Big Baller Tournament which is Saturday October 19th. Both events are on our website, www.nymusky.com, and early registration and forms are available so please sign up soon!!! Any questions as always feel free to ask, thank you Sent from my SM-G973U using Lake Ontario United mobile app
