  1. I really wish the DEC would put more pressure on the feds to regulate their population. The Canadian side has opened a season.
  2. Used but in good condition. $100.00 plus $12.00 shipping to the lower 48 or local pickup in Hilton.
  3. Great job guys! I haven’t seen the numbers of cormorants around this year compared to years past.
  4. I’m giving away a Coleman 150qt marine cooler to someone who is just getting g started in Salmon fishing. It needs a little TLC but for a couple of bucks, it will work! Local pick up in Hilton NY
  5. State pension employees pay into the system. The Tier I am in, pays 3% for the first 10 years of their career. After that they don't pay. Tier 6 (the newest Tier) pays minimum 3.5% for their entire career. If their salary is over $100,000 per year, they pay 6% (minimum is 3.5% and there is a scale it goes up to $100,000 and 6%). My retirement is based off of my three highest year average counting overtime. The new tiers, its solely off of base salary. There is plenty of money being paid into the system to support it. The state pension system is getting stronger with the older tiers being phased out and the people in those tiers no longer living. Once someone dies in the pension system, the money stops. If you die 2 weeks after retirement, that money does not go to your family. It stays in the fund unless you have extra money taken out of your retirement check and your spouse gets payments until she dies.
  6. The older tiers of the state pension system have a good pension. Tier 6 (the latest tier) is not good. State agencies are having trouble hiring because people can work in the private sector and have a better retirement and pay now. Tier 6 retirement is based on BASE salary only now. If a state worker has 20K in OT their highest three year average it = ZERO extra dollars extra into their retirement. They also have to pay into the pension system their entire career and work a lot longer. Thank god I am in Tier 4!
  7. You still had fuel. Thats not running out. Thats a mechanical failure.
  8. If you leave the dock and are at risk of running out of fuel, you shouldn't operate a boat on Lake Ontario. There is ZERO reason to leave the dock with very little fuel in your tank. Fuel issues other than running out can happen. Running out should never happen!
  9. Just add a kicker and you will not need a tow.
  10. Fish out of Sandy Creek in Hamlin and 90% of the season, you can find plenty of kings without breaking 150' of water. If you have a port with good structure, kings will be there if the bait is there. 2020, we fished inside of 120' for kings most of the season.
