  1. Ask Bernie about that when he was running against Hillary . Those Super delegates have amazing powers .
  2. If you are using riggers I would say no but most reels now come with them . Dipsys absolutely . Used rod combos on here also . There are guys on here that will tell you you have to have this and that to catch fish . I'm here to tell you you need basic stuff presented properly . Took me a long time and lots of money before I figured that out . Get the riggers
  3. I have a boat almost the same as yours Spend the money a buy the riggers . You won't be sorry . My setup and I love it . Removable board when I don't fish salmon trout . You can get used manual riggers relatively cheap on here . Lead core and wire are,both expensive and when you factor those in the price and value will be well worth it . And you will catch more on the riggers IMO .
  4. The top 4 are j plugs Probably a #5 #4 #3 #2 The bottom one with the fixed hook is a Canadian plug I do believe . I have a bunch I bought at a sport show back in the early 80s I have a pearl black dot same size as #3 j plugs I have caught 50 + fall kings on .it's almost automatic dawn for first hr . I . Have a few of the smaller ones I caught a few spring Brown's on .
  5. Google N.Y. travel ban and see the reporting . But I recall seeing Cuomo say there is a travel ban . Maybe it just a strong suggestion and scare tactic . But I suppose it's up to the individual how they want to handle it . I go fishing locally where I want . But a buddy wanted me to come down trout fishing and thought I probably should not travel that far. I also think that some of this is overblown , but I don't want to be the one to be wrong and spread this . I wanted to go to the Salmon river for drop backs,but won't for that reason . It's kind of a question of character .
  6. Cuomo declared it March 20 Google it . Maybe I'm reading it wrong .
  7. You must currently be staying up here as it is my understanding there is a travel ban for all non essential travel in New York state .
  8. And I also think those that run charters will not be doing it very long as those that are following the rules will not take those who don't very well .
  9. Just heard the President say that loans/ grant will be eligible for small business . So I would think charters would be covered under that . It is my understanding that essential businesses were spelled out pretty clearly. And 10k fines for those not in compliance .
  10. Wal-Mart's best marine battery . They are duel use . 100$ Been using them for years and they are awesome for the price . I have 2 chargers . I digital up to 15 amps . 1 which is a 2 amp digital charger maintainer cost 20$ . I use the 2 amp most of the time . They both charge the battery safely and have an automatic plate cleaning cycle . Also been told they equalize the cells . I have batteries that are 10 years old . Because I think of those chargers .
  11. Many Stick baits come with split rings on the front . Rapala sticks did not . So every stick I have now has a split ring . It is a,pivot point and does not affect the action . So I tie direct . The balance of the lure is critical , especially smaller lures It is important that you tune your sticks . Some say they are tuned right out of the box . Don't trust that . And after a few fish . You may have to retune . I have had some you can't tune . I use do do this in my mother's swimming pool or on a dock with no current or wind . It takes time but it's well spent .
  12. If you are serious about fishing and go a lot , I would take the time to set the boat up to the max . Would-be the electric start as big as the,boat will take,. 2 battery setup , one dedicated to the trolling motor . Maybe extention cables to put one battery mid ship under a seat or something . A cheap depth finder , maybe running lights , an ice chest . A spot for everything like anchor ,ropes , PFDs ,toolbox ,etc . A few rod holders and if you plan on trolling , a removable board with manual riggers mounted across the gunnels. Sit in it and think it out and take some time . I enjoy setting my boats up .
  13. It seems to have stabilized . Maybe because they pulled the plug , or at least partly . We also have not had a lot of rain , YET .
  14. There are many small business folks like myself . And if we don't work , we don't eat or pay our bills . I don't want a handout or no interest loan or even a grant for that matter . I have the gov telling me I can't work ,( I'm classified essential ) , or evict my non paying tennents cabs a landlord ,which I probably wouldn't do anyway . I hope dont get sick or worse get a family member or someone else sick . You do what you feel is right and I will do the same . Just out of curiosity , where does your income stream come from ?
  15. Tell that to mothers against drunk drivers , the kids at Sandy hook . There are risks in life . Maybe I die or worse a family member . But at some point , you have to take the risk and let the chips fall where they may .
  16. With that logic we should outlaw booze , guns , motorcycles , etc, etc, etc.
  17. Not a very realistic statement
  18. From the sounds of it the president and the money guys are getting worried about the economic forecast if this thing goes on . And the clowns in congress seemingly can't organize a 2 car funeral. Some using the situation to ram thru their agendas. A new low , if that's possible, in congress yesterday . And it seems , and I agree, that the cost of losing the economy and it tanking , is out weighing the potential death count . I don't see this shut down in it current state , lasting long from what I saw yesterday .
  19. Make sure you use new flares and fittings . If you reuse flares or compression fittings they set and form .And may not seal good a second time . I also don't like those fittings that clamp on to the 3/4 And pierce the pipe . A sweat fitting or maybe shark tooth for that if it's copper .
  20. It 20 deg this morning I fished off my seawall yesterday afternoon and the wind was,coming off the lake . Sun was shinning but it was cold . I did 3 smallmouth . And raked some leaves . You are a better man than me to be out there . Have fun . I'm going to work .
  21. The stock hook of the original nk28 was a Eagle claw L 374 1/0 , Mags 2/0 . Great hook for the money
  22. Please spare me the Kuhmbaya speech . There are a lot of people out there that need to , in no uncertain terms , be told to pull their heads out of their ass and get with the program so that when , not if , something happens like this, they are prepared to weather the storm without being a burden on the rest of us that have taken the time , sacrificed , and prepared ourselves . THAT , is their patriotic duty .
  23. At some point the piper needs to get paid . And yes ,I'm calm and using my head ,and still remain positive . But there are a lot of morons out there that won't be . And the rest of us will pay the price .
  24. And as Jimski says . We need to stop outsourcing everything . So we don't have to kiss ass to get essential stuff . This kind of stuff is in Trumps wheelhouse . He is organized and knows how to delicate . The most scary part of all this ? Cuomo and Trump praising and agreeing with each other .
