July ELOSTA Meeting Speaker- Capt. Vince Pierleoni

[Tall Tails]

Eastern Lake Ontario Salmon and Trout Association (ELOSTA) is proud to be hosting Captain Vince Pierleoni of Thrillseeker Sportfishing Charters at its next monthly meeting and seminar to present on boat rigging tips and layout.  This is a great opportunity for anyone who fishes Lake Ontario, any of the Finger Lakes, or other water body that involves trolling as an angling approach. 

 

 

With the resurgence of interest in Great Lakes trolling and in particular, the Lake Ontario Salmon fishery, Capt Vince Pierleoni has seen a need for boat rigging clinics. Capt Vince, a twenty-nine year full time professional charter boat operator, has rigged eight different vessels for Lake Ontario trolling. Most recently, Capt Vince rigged a twenty-four footer primarily for tournament fishing. It was while rigging this trailerable boat that he had the idea of sharing what he has learned through trial and error and experience with other anglers.

 

Whether you are an experienced troller looking to fine tune rigging or a newbie looking to avoid expensive mistakes, there is something for you.  Some topics covered include downrigger placement and mounting, rodholder placement and mounting for storage, planer boards, divers, planer board rigging options, electronics choices, electronics helm station placement, transducer choices and placement, and speed control tools and others.  How all of this can be done on various size and style boats will also be addressed.

 

 

This clinic on July 17 will be held outdoors from the boat, it will be held at the Mexico VFW on Route 3 at 7:00PM.  This is a rain or shine event as there is shelter available.

 

 

This clinic is free of charge and all anglers are encouraged to attend.

To all that our intersted in boat rigging/equipment installation. Capt. Vince is going to give you valuable, straight up info. He has hundreds hours into rebuilding and installing stuff. He also uses his stuff to literally catch tons of fish. This is a great chance to learn how to do it right and improve your set-up. .......Respectfully Submitted....Ex-Jet Boat Bill in Lewes, De.
