    Yeah sweet smallies. I remember last early July the bowfins were everywhere in Meadow Cove and the south end, and they like spinnerbaits. Had no idea what they were and had to google it. Got into a couple that luckily fell off right at the boat so I didn't have to haul them in, lol. They are weird looking fish, but pretty cool they are an ancient species.

    Was out fishing the bay Saturday and today, it was considerably slower than last weekend. Bunch of smaller bass and pike, but one 5lb smallie today....with only one eye, at that. That was pretty cool, and I do believe my personal best smallmouth. I know I'm giving bass reports to trolling guys who could probably care less but I just like talking about Fair Haven, lol..

    I think Interstate will knock $10 off if you bring in an old battery with a new battery purchase. Not sure though if this is only for people with an account with them... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    I bought a travel cover for my 17' Lund Rebel from iboats.com or whatever. Paid around 350 for the one that wasn't the highest end but better than middle of the road. It pretty much sucks as far as fit is concerned. You'd think if a company is making a cover for your specific model boat then they'd take into consideration that a trolling motor comes standard on practically every Lund. So my cover doesn't fit over the trolling motor properly. It's also pretty baggy at the corners of the stern/transom. I bungee it down and make it work fine, but I'll never buy another cover from them again. I contacted them and they wanted me to send it back, then they stopped answering my questions and it pretty much got swept under the rug. To be fair it's about as much of my fault as it is theirs since I didn't just send it back. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Thanks for this thread, I just found and read the whole thing. I bought my first boat last year, a very lightly used 2010 17' Lund. Tracker was high up on my list, but the horror stories of hull problems resonated in me a bit too much to feel comfortable getting a used one. In the end I could've bought a new Tracker for what I spent on the used Lund but I don't regret it. Sorry to hear of this frustrating experience. How has it been so far this season? Also......that's a sweet looking rig, I must say. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Interesting. Thanks for the info. I used to fish with a guy when I was a young kid on Sodus Bay and he'd hammer walleye all summer. I managed a few with him back then, but never tried or heard much of them since then, and this was about 15 or so years ago. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Does anyone know of or seen any Walleye caught out of Little Sodus? I don't fish for them but I've been curious about it around there lately. And if I'm not mistaken I think Blind Sodus was regularly stocked with Walleye in past years...? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Yes, but it doesn't last long and isn't easy to determine when exactly they run through there.

    They work pretty good actually but I only buy them at Field and Stream when they are buy one get one free. AND I'm not buying the $15-$20 ones, I'm using the $10 crayfish ones at two for one so it's not that bad....still don't like losing them though. The lipless cranks are good too but the store hasn't gotten any more in. Caught probably 20 fish on one before it eventually got wrapped around a log.

    All largemouth and I got 3 or 4 smallies. Had a big pike break off a Live Target crankbait (doh!..) right in front of Meadow Cove, but no other pike besides that, surprisingly. Water temp was between 49 and 51 most of the day.

    We bass fished the bay for almost 12 hours today...took an hour break at the cottage around 4pm but we were in hammer mode again by 5. My buddy got a nice 5lb 6oz largemouth, I got a 4.5lb smallie and we each got countless fish in between. Days like today are what makes the work week feel way too long.

    Thanks for the response

    A buddy of mine was telling me someone he knows brings his bass boat through the channel of the state park and into the pond. I know you aren't supposed to bring a boat through there, but is that even possible to get under that bridge? I told him his buddy is full of crap, but really now I don't know. Not something I'd try, I'm just curious. I remember the bridge being quite low.

    A friend of mine just joined this year and has been bugging me to do the same. I don't care to fish tournaments though, so is there any point besides that to join?

    Fished the bay all weekend, had a good time. Lots of pike and largemouth. That wind was kicking for a while yesterday. Now I spend my Monday day dreaming of being there next weekend

    Bump.....and I'm an idiot, it's actually 46 LB THRUST NOT 36 !!!!

    Jealous of you guys who get to fish there during the week. For now I'm a weekend warrior. Out of work during the week at 330, it'd take me an hour to get to my boat in Fair Haven at least, half hour to set up, maybe on the water by 5:30, fish til dark, pack up, get home by 10:30pm or so...it's do-able once in a while but that 5am work alarm always comes too quick
  19. krux5506
    Yes. I have a 17' Lund that handles the waves fine. But I'm not fishing when it's rough really. You'll see bass boats out there too, which I personally think is stupid..

    The last picture shows the part needed. Those two parts work to stabilize the shaft while moving

    Bump

    We've left and gone back in before, but that was before they had the computer gate. The woman working just remembered us paying and let us through

    I have a Motorguide trolling motor I am pricing to sell - not looking to make money on it I just want to get rid of it since I've upgraded. This came on my 2010 17' Lund Rebel. 36 pound thrust, pedal controlled, 45" shaft $75 Motor works fine, but is missing a piece that helps stabilize the shaft when in the water. I can't find the part on their website for sale but there is a picture of it. I have not tried much beyond that to get this part. It is a small half circular shaped rubber piece that cradles the shaft. West Marine is able to get motorguide parts and told me to bring in the other half of the missing piece, I just havent. Also comes with a spare prop, and will include all the 8 gauge wiring I had on my boat for it. I can add pics later if anyone's interested.
  24. krux5506
    Yes, that's where I got the pike. Tons of small perch following my crankbait around over there
  25. krux5506
    Saw a lot of boats out, how'd everyone do? I know most of you guys are going for trout but I just fished the bay, which was slow. Managed a nice pike and a largemouth anyway.
