Noob in training :) Hello all and big TY to Joetroller

[Michael]

Hello all , my name is Michael im from Canisteo ,NY i am new to the whole concept of boating with downriggers and big game fishing. I have been camping at Fair Haven State Park for the past 25 plus years. ( A Grandpa passed down tradition) I have always enjoyed boats and I have a 15 ' Crestview that has proven to be a great little boat for my needs. I am able to cross into the pond for bass fishing , but also can enjoy the lake on not windy days. I am new to the deep style fishing just recently added manual downriggers , spoons, flashers , dodgers ect to my tackle. I have yet to catch any fish with this gear but i am patient so my time im sure will come. While camping this past weekend with faimly i had a few great things happen. I ran into a great fellow on the bayside dock name joetroller who was a great help to me on some ideas for my next lake adventure. Thank you Joe. Also i had a uncle that just gave me a new boat ( 23' Scorpion 211 chris craft). I am so excited about being able to go a bit further than my 15 footer can in the lake. Although this new boat needs some work im sure i will give it all my best effort. I come back to Fair Haven the week of June 28 - July 6 th and am looking forward to seeing , watching and learning from all of you out there on the lake. Thanks so much for having me to the forum  and look forward to maybe meeting some of you on the water. Thanks Michael
