Ouch

Yeah I love them... especially when a 10000 pound boat is going 40 mph.. but also great at troll speed single engine can keep me at 1.5 or so

Lol best investment in electronics you can make next to a really solid sonar system

Looks good when we are hauling at 40 mph makes a loud whipping noise though

I had just finished setting up for departure Sunday and thought the lighting was kinda cool and shot some photos of our ride ready to fish thought I would share... Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Not a bad idea...I will be putting up a comprehensive video on the uscg aux website for ithaca a cold water presentation that included a video of people in water about that temperature as a test and followed their symptoms over time..it is quite educational...have some editing to do on it but it will be up likely in a week or so on our YouTube Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United

No skunks here went 14 for 18 hits a beautiful brown rest lakers ....one 32 inch 12 lb laker...Sunday... Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United

You are not crazy...i have found that a high percentage of the suspended lakers in cayuga have coloring often as bright as a brightly colored brown and a high percentage of them were natural spawn not stocked... all of the brightest colored ones I have caught were natural spawners. The exception being I found them on the bottom during october...I did not track everything I caught over the last couple of seasons...and while id like to think I have the discipline to do so and it would be interesting I probably dont. Other things like clients conversations and finding and landing fish take priority. I do know I caught between 250-300 lakers last year on my charters and paid close attention to whether they were clipped or not. I brought one up with a lampray on it, a few had scars but not many...when I would go shallower and work bottoms for browns I would invariably snag alot of lakers that were smaller in the low 20 inch category and be shaking them off... like rustyrat I could not find browns after the early season...

Lmao strong opinions gotta love fishermen. I get them both ways but mostly suspended bottom dancing only when I have enough good experience on board to work riggers so I don’t lose equipment.

Seminar???? What did I miss?

Great reports guys congratulations

Hey that one in the middle is yours lol

So below is the picture of my new dash and electronic installation done myself...took off old thinner dash with old electronics and one new lowrance...traced it on butcher paper and sent it to www.boatoutfitters.com They cut me a new replacement routed edge on a thicker plastic king starboard that matched the previous to a T. Then I measured 16 times lol and cut in the electronics myself and built a bracket system to hold them all in place from behind...viola dual networked lowrance units with total scan...downscan and side scan..plus a Garmin 740 to replace my older chart plotter to run the radar....if you need something custom they do it..
