Never Ends

Will do thank you

one of the eyelets broke off, i was able to make it work, but would like a new one

Thermostat Housing, OMC Cobra Anyone have one of these laying around?

Geneva, South end of Seneca, Sampson, Lodi Point, Starkey Point, Salt Plant in Watkins. 80-120 feet is usually a safe bet from late spring to end of summer.

The 25" shaft? i was looking at that as well and thinking about mounting possibilities. Thank you

Sound advice friend!

Thank You

Need Advice on a kicker and prop Hello, I am buying a new Tohatsu kicker, i have a 3900lb (Dry) Chapparall Sport Fisherman, with an OMC Cobra which is only fished on Seneca lake and i am wondering if a 9.8 Tohatsu will do the trick for trolling purposes? Im thinking fully loaded the boat will weigh around 5k? i just dont know if i should go with a 15 HP Tohatsu to be safe (i know neither one will get me on a plane). i also plan on buying a good kicker bracket as well. Also, i cannot figure out if my boats prop is correct, it is old and weathered and i need a new one, WOT is 4200-4600 and i currently have a 15.5x15. The boat will not go over 25mph with current prop (which could be related to other issues) but i am just wondering if i should pitch down to 13 as i dont care about top end speed to get optimal performance or pitch up to a 17... i have a Ford Windsor as an engine think it is a 305? All help/advice is appreciated

Watkins Glen NY to Geneva NY, where are you located? i am assuming if you are going out of Olcott you are interested in fishing lake ontario and not one of the southern finger lakes. Which i was referring to

Here is a report for you. Fished Seneca on 7/17 targeting Bass, caught 6 babies and 2 rock bass, west side of the lake south of long point. we saw a ton of "big boys" and they were jumping everywhere just not hitting (and i tried every lure in my box, PERHAPS MY TECHNIQUE IS GARBAGE?). We had about a 6-0% follow rate. The fish were there just not interested at the time. But who would be when the sawbelly population is AMAZING.

Where are you fishing at? I have good info on Seneca, but not much else

I have "Seen" more LL Salmon this year than any other year on the South end, West Side where they always are. I have caught some as well. More than years past. I have also caught more Perch, Bass and Bullhead on the east side, off of my wifes dock in the past 2 years than ever before, which prior to 3 years ago i NEVER had any luck there. but now it is plentiful. I dont consider myself an expert Fisherman by any means, im just relaying my experience and what i see/catch etc... (maybe i really sucked in the past and learned a thing or two which is why i am having more success now.... Or....)

I have caught more fish in the last 5 years on Seneca than i have in the last 33 years. Starting 3 years ago i started to notice more bait fish than ever and this year it is unreal. I have never seen so many LL Salmon on the south end than i have seen this year. The Derby winner this year was a record breaker. The Salt plant has been around for 100 years. The same 7 wineries have owned all the grapes for the last 50 years. I love reading those articles as i love basically having that lake to myself when i am out fishing because people think the lake sucks for fishing. The lake is a challenge, which is why i love it.
