New guy from Pennsylvania


Recommended Posts

I've been fishing Ontario and the Finger Lakes at least occasionally for 20 years or more, since I purchased my first fishing boat, a 16' StarCraft Fishmaster with a 40HP Merc.  Since then I've upgraded rigs a few times but while I still fish the Finger Lakes a good bit, I haven't been on Ontario in a number of years.  I hope to change that some in the near future as I'm in the process of purchasing and rigging a new Smokercraft 182 Pro Mag with a 115 Yamaha 4-stroke, 24 volt MinnKota, Lowrance Elite 7HDI sonar/GPS and Humminbird 718 sonar on the bow.  I'll also be adding 2 48" track systems, one to each gunnel, along with 2 Bert's swivel downrigger mounts, two Cannon electric riggers (Mag 5), 2 Bert's ratchet buff-brite rod holders and 2 stainless adjustable rod holders which I already had. 

 

I'm rejoining the forum because I recall it being a great place to learn about boats, gear, rigging and general fishing technique and I know that I'll surely benefit from some refreshers and some new ideas.

Welcome back Bill.. we must be about due for another get-together! Sounds like a sweet rig you're putting together. You'll have to drag it out and join us on one of our Erie trips! Good Fishing, Sluggo (Chris)

Hey Chris, yep, getting back into the swing of it and ready to fish.  Let me know where and when you'll be out and maybe we can find you on the water or for a beer afterwards.  Work's still a **** but I'm always anxious to go.  ;)
