  1. If that's struggling I need to take up golf. Kids with big fish...priceless!
  2. Thanks Hornet. Been a good run. She'll be ready for next season. Total refit last yr on the Misty, she's a fishing machine. Wanted to get something for striper,and salmon. Maybe I can get past the 150 now. See you on the pond. Where's all the Mexico reports?
  3. Nice to hear from you Less, hope all is well! Phone works both ways Mike, lol. You're just worried about competition. No worries, have bananas, will travel.
  4. It's definitely cool. Didn't get in last season and Tony landed a 28 plus that took the daily. Never heard the end of it. We'll go for it next weekend, see if the grandsons got game.
  5. Thanks bud, yeh, a whole 2 more ft. At least I can stand up now.. 😆
  6. 15th annual Labor Day Weekend run. Last run for the old 16 misty harbor. Picked up an old angler 180 dc for next project. Looking forward to taking 2 grandsons out next week. Always enjoy the " small craft advisories " this time of year. Good luck to all. Keep it tight!
  7. Hey Hornet, I should have done the same this past weekend. Hit the river with kids and grandkids float fishing. No fish but a great day on the river
  8. That's what got my attention. Good set up for lighter tackle on Cayuga. Hate drowning small fish. Inshore kings doesn't mater much. They just grab and go.
  9. Great info. Guess I'll have to graduate to wire instead of 50lb braid. Lol
  10. Good deal. I might have to get a couple of those sliders. Is the math the same as the fixed?
  11. I've been curious about them. Are they an improvement over the fixed? When the fish are tight to bottom at 100+ they're pretty much useless to me but I run them at 225 to 250 just to keep 4 rods going.
  12. Only takes 1 HB2. Tough to get a break out there, but the adrenaline rush is a trip. Keep searching, you'll find them. Good job, keep it tight!
  13. When are we going? Still need a bucket brown to fill the lake O wish list! Beautiful fish
  14. Well I'm done. Managed to get out to the 135 today. 70° water out to 100'. Going to be blowing tomorrow, I'm out in the am. Had a couple knock offs on spoons tight to the bottom.
  15. Tony getting it done on a cleo! Lake was a mess. Anchored up at the mouth of SR. Cold water and a pile of fish. Gotta do something 😄. We'll have to see what the morning brings. Might have to bail for Cayuga lakers.
  16. Heading up tomorrow morning for another go at it. Looks like the lady might give us a decent day Saturday. Conflicting wave forecasts as usual but looks like <1 with a few bumps thrown in. Can't catch em from the couch. I'll probe the 100+ Fri afternoon see what's going on. Would like to target fresh fish especially steel, but not above dragging the 50 for mud sharks. Be safe folks, head on a swivel. See you out there.
  17. I don't spend enough time to give scientific data, but I can say that the average length to weight of stagers in Mexico have decreased in the last 12 yrs. Based again on a handful of personal catches and comparisons to others . The one male king we boated last weekend was 39" - 26.9 lbs with a 24 1/2" girth. Fattest king I've ever caught in that size bracket. Less fish more bait? I have no idea. He had all of his fins, natural spawn? Curious.
  18. It was great to bump into you again Fat Trout. Last Saturday was definitely a perfect day. Great pic!! We had a knock off doing the same thing, scared the crap out of my grandson Andrew. Makes you wonder how long that fish was following. 😆 We're making a run this weekend for a 911 memorial cruise. Maybe I'll see you there. Oh, ..you lost me on the 26? I don't think I've landed 26 salmon in my career on that rig.🤣
  19. Where do you put the downriggers?
  20. We we're lucky to get a full day in on Saturday. I love being on the lake but when she starts getting angry I'm gone. Found temp at 110 but Sunday morning was above my pay grade. Played with the mud sharks in the kiddy pool. All good. Might do a suicide run this weekend if she behaves herself.
