  1. The birds out of Olcott last Thursday were unreal. All in tight, and hundreds of them.
  2. Thanks. Same to you !!
  3. Was actually my buddy's boat. Still have to mount the new one. Hoping to get that handled asap !
  4. Ice in the creek / launch
  5. Shakedown !!! Felt great to be back on the big pond !!! Launch took a little shovel work to clear some ice out but it was pretty easy getting out. Bob and weave the floaters. Ran east to keg. Scored a few browns on a West troll in 15-18fow. Spoons only. Black/copper/orange Wanted to also try for some Lakers for a local Derby contest. Got a few in the boat and one was good enough to take first, so overall it was a fantastic first trip out.
  6. Fantastic ! Thanks for the report !! Will be heading out tomorrow !!!
  7. So your asking 4000.00 Canadian ? That is 2995 US dollars.
  8. There were tons last year but they were all caught and not released....
  9. Don't want to dump on your thread, but this can be bought, brand new for less. https://www.hodgesmarine.com/Lowrance-Hds-16-Carbon-Mfd-W-C-Map-Insight-No-p/low000-13734-001.htm?gclid=Cj0KCQjwsZ3kBRCnARIsAIuAV_TzhpvJqZKTxgSjY8-BTyzQGfLvMAdKw4JCehta9tfisnW9hSeHdY0aAj05EALw_wcB&click=19
  10. Popular boat, I'm sure alot of guys willing to share pics. I was in the same position when I was looking to re do my boat, so to help the next guy I posted step by step pics of the process. Most guys like seeing the progress regardless of the boat, so be sure to share !!
  11. Fort Niagara has a public launch that is very nice. About a 3 minute ride and your on the bar. Or, depending on exactly when and what species your after, staying near Wilson will split the difference between Olcott and the bar. You definitely can get by without a Canadian license just watch the line and stay inside it.
  12. Yep ! Another dirt nap... Nice dark coated dog !
  13. I've been keeping my eye on Olcott (backbay webcam). Can't wait for the chunks to clear out ! I'd bet she will be opened up by Monday.....fingers crossed
  14. What species ? The bar holds just about everything.
  15. Just did the transom on mine too. It was time. It actually was fairly solid around where the main mounts / center but spongy on the outsides. After the transom came out, it was pretty bad throughout. But, before I put a new main on, I knew I should do it to be safe.
  16. Back at em !
  17. There is quite a bit of foam in these boats so finding the hole may be tough. Make sure if you replace foam you do it with closed cell or something comparable. You may luck out and see where the "wettest" spots are and be able to isolate. Thankfully, mine is bone dry and short of taking some waves inside my bilge has never ran.
  18. Nope, that's just a typical staged king....prob fell apart on the reel in
  19. My favorite part of becoming a boat owner, was leaving that behind me. Can't believe there's no arguing / brawls. Give it a couple bad days of no fish..... Attitudes def change.
  20. Some more pics. Pardon the dust....
  21. I've been really happy with my white diamonds.
