    I think one reason you see it more from the oak than other ports is we seem to have a great late summer offshore fishery. Some years we have good fishing inshore but on years with crazy winds we spend most of later summer offshore. Alos the lake bottom seems to flatten out and not change as fast once you get to 300 fow. So the north lines seem easier. that's just my take on it. I have fished up and down the lake shore, but live right here at the oak so maybe I am biased but this area seems to have the best summer offshore fishing on Lake ontario. From here to rochester seems like the prime area in summer.

    Be carful some muzzle loaders require back ground checks bc they can be converted to center-fire . Some cva, some Thompson centers all encores and the tradition nitro fires are a few. So better check before you sell one online. I work in the firearms industry and trust me the laws are very confusing. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    It's all caused by wind moving the water , so that's current.. all you have to do is go out the few days after when it's all getting straighted out and put a probe out troll all different directions with out changing your speed over ground and you will see how much the water is moving to be tit back to the normal temps Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Yes it is kind of a flip . That cold water was down deep because no where on the lake when the wind stops blowing this time of year is 44 degrees so that cold water that's now on top at he shore sure came from under some place ..so the term flip is kind of right ..yes the entire lake does not get turned up side down ..but it forces cold water that once was down deep to be on the surface. And I have seen it before when it's first happening that close to shore the surface is colder than the down temp . It can last long that way. It it happens.

    They kill so many fish in the summer it's crazy. Guess back in the water they have some chance but little after being in a livewell for hours and handled over and over. Guess about the same as the salmon. Tournaments they kill them all Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Fixed sliders all the way ..no tangles good hook ups and you know what water your covering . These are what I use they are home made from offshore releases. Snap goes around main line , leader goes on split ring ..the clip release to main line to hold in place .. simple and very effective . And keep your cheater line short makes it easy to net fish and less tangles in the net . I do like 6 foot or less Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    How did you make out Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    This can also happen spooling it up if you let the line reel on the reel after it goes inside of the level wind. This gets the level wind out of line with the line on the spool easiest way to fix this is to put a good size sinker on it and the next time you go out let the line out way past where you will ever have a fish pull the drag out so say like 600 feet or so on your counter ..and then reel it back in that puts good tension on the line and saves you trying to do it at home.

    Are they the old all black 47lc's or one of the newer models..have you tried to loosen the spool tension knob? It's like a cast control on a reg bait casting reel, it puts friction on the end of the shafts. It can make them reel harder don't back it off to much just a little. Try that and see if it changes anything Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Mine are older they were made by anglers choice. I used to be a manufacturer rep for them in the early 90's and had a few sets of them around left over. I am on my last set and I have to do a repair to one of them right now. But any ones work. Biggest trick is to hook them close to the bow, always run one on each side so the boat tracks straight. And keep a rear line on them that is fairly tight. That is what keeps them from wondering under the boat , or off to the side. I have mine set so they are just a little past half way back my boat foot when they are in the water. And the back line is hooked to the rear cleat, it keeps the tension on them and it makes them easy to lift out of the water. The rear rope attachment is what let loose on mine I put a couple pics of how they hang and the one that's blown up I am fixing Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    That's what I run . I have a 19 foot boat and run bags all the time. And yes my i pilot does just fine. The bags to me make the boat handle better I run mine even in to the wind just speed motor up . It helps you have more control. I drive all the time with only my trolling motor and it does a great job. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
