  1. I ve caught hundreds of walleye out of skaneatles and its gonna get better. Last fall there were little eyes everywhere i looked on the south end a couple times and im talking a thousand of em and the northend is filled with them as well. They can be tough to find but if you find the fish its lights out. The 2 pics we caught over 50 fish each night and kept less than half. There are some 30 inch fish in there as well.
  2. I fish nearly everyday all winter throughout 4 to 5 rivers in the southern tier,and walleye fish well over 2000 hours a season. The susquehanna watershed and has definitely declined for walleye but i still get 20 fish nights occaisionally and a couple dozen fish in the 28 to 31 inch range. I find myself fishing different places than i used to and its nowhere near as easy in most cases but i wouldnt say it has collapsed. I seldom keep any of them these days because id rather know for sure i didnt wipe em out. Fish evolve on a daily basis but anglers dont.....catch rates arent necessarily indicative of the population of a given species.
  3. Ive had the same thing happen 4 times on otisco with big tigers on walleye, and several other times with bass, catfish, and white perch. Most recently a 20 inch largemouth.
  4. You dont mark many when they are in the top 5 foot of the column either....or 10 for that matter. Yep they where there for a month....
  5. Livescope has totally changed my outlook on the lake. There are so many walleye in there compared to what I thought pre livescope...it's just unbelievable! Its definitely not the numbers that are making it difficult....just takes much more skill and patience. Nice job Jeff! Not too many boats can catch em and you do more often than not. You can jig 10 ways, jerkbait em, and troll em all in daylight, and after dark there are lots more options....its just more challenge than most can handle. Bleed those fish and trim em well and they taste as good as any eyes and without the heavy metals from everywhere else!
  6. I get smallmouths all winter night fishing walleye. Usually only bigger ones and only get 1 or 2. I'm also fishing nearly every night.
  7. I replaced both keels with ones I made that are twice as long with an angle on the front for getting thru floating weedmats.. Mine pull very hard and using yankee trollers knot measurements I can run them out 150 feet and they dont fall back much at all with 4 long leadcores on each side. 1 keep may work for you but 2 is definitely a worthwhile upgrade even if you dont run many lines.

  10. Gotta love black Friday!
  11. I love mine and I have 28 of em....I'd make it 30 if those were right handed!
  12. Like new in the box mega live $1000 plus shipping prefer to meet I purchased the unit in mid October and only used it 5 times. I was too busy to really dial in the settings and become proficient with the unit. I've since picked up the new Garmin livescope and a 12 inch graph for it so I'm selling the mega live. The unit works fine.
  13. lyk2fish is the guy you want on Owasco. He is one of the best anglers I know and I fish with him all winter. I don't meet many guys with the passion I have and he has it!
  14. I wasn't going to keep any fish tonight but now I have to keep 1! I already released 2 perfect 6-7 lbers before I saw this but should be interesting.
