  1. I've been having a similar issue
  2. Would've been nice to at least get a few more would've made the wet ride in a 14ft boat a lot more enjoyable haha
  3. Don't feel bad. I was the bug too. As only my second FLTA event and first time fishing canandaigua out of my boat and its been a few years since I fished it with anyone else and that was only twice I knew it was going to be a challenge. We worked shallow and deep on the east side and could only get one 17inch laker at 1.8lbs to fire. Was definitely a tough lake. Makes me look forward to Keuka a lot more. Maybe should've went turkey hunting but you've gotta take the bad to get the good
  4. May be a dumb question but do you have to strip all line off the reels first? I've got some reels that I would like work done with but don't feel like having to buy new wire
  5. Mike can you tie up custom flies? I'm looking for something mostly yellow with a hint of black and blood red
  6. Always dip net after getting rods set, kick back and put in a dip and wait for first rod to fire. And then if its slow empty the beer tank, make a sand which then I like to tap a coin on each reel then throw it over my left shoulder into the water
  7. I completely agree that new isn't always better if it caught fish once why won't it work now and we all know that some days there's only one thing on the boat that is going to catch fish that day. And I just want to have as many options as possible. Starting to realize I need a bigger boat to accomplish that lol
  8. X2 you beat me to it
  9. Sounds good Harv I'll call you tonight
  10. Thank you very much thats exactly what I was looking for. How far do you trail these behind cowbells?
  11. OK so seems as dead bait has been a topic of discussion recently and I have started messing with cowbells a little bit I was wondering if anyone has knowledge of how to tie an old fashion Seneca gang hook set up for trolling sawbellies. I know my uncle Rick Angle who owned the Creek side bait and tackle in Montour years ago used to tie these and sold quite a few and I remember him trying to show me when I was a young kid but I just can't seem to remember how it's done and I don't even know if they are still even worth the time anymore. Thanks in advance to anyone with some input on this
  12. UV watermelon
  13. Out of all the fish I've caught on Seneca only one fish had bait in it and it was packed with 6 sawbellies however the others were empty but I'm sure there is bait there
  14. I purchased a good selection of bay rats but can never get them to fire as bad as I want them to and finding shallow reef runners is a pain
  15. Wish there were lures with the same style and action of a rapala but not made from balsam... Sometimes it's hard to beat a good old f9 and I love the new scatter series but they don't last long
  16. They are definitely not a quality lure anymore. I have broke quite a few fortunately never causing a lost fish though.
  17. Nice job! Is there any size to some of these salmon your catching? Recently over there most the salmon I've caught have been sub-legal
  18. Good luck to all fishing the FLTA tourney on Seneca tomorrow! Tight lines!
  19. Or "finger lakes sunrise" because I'm sure we can all agree sometimes there is just nothing in this world more beautiful and we all take or have that buddy who takes a pic of it peaking over the hills above a loaded downrigger rod in the morning
  20. Toothpaste with a little elbow grease
  21. Those are nice combos! We like to run a blueish or white Spinny or a paddle pulling a similar colored fly out between 50-60 on a zero setting on a size 1 dipsy especially on Cayuga that has produced a lot of landlocks and bows. A chrome dodger or paddle with a Sutton spoon 18-24inches behind it works well too
  22. Good excuse to bring a bb gun out fishing lol
