This is a high priority call to action for anyone that wants to protect their ability to hunt in NYS. I have it from an anonymous budget watchdog source that Governor Hochul has cut the DEC out of the current iteration of the budget. The writing was on the wall with the commissioner and vice commissioner announcing they were stepping down. Cuomo started the process when the DEC would not back him in his last governor’s race, wouldn’t back the Safe Act, and blew the whistle on Cuomo when he tried to steal earmarked money from the outdoor fund. Hochul has continued Cuomo’s vendetta. There was an attempt to roll the duties of the DEC into the Park Rangers even though Rangers have no law enforcement or firearms training. This is the beginning. Without a regulating body to help oversee hunting season, they will argue that there cannot be hunting. This is the back door way downstate will try to get rid of guns. BELIEVE IT, THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING. So coming soon to an outdoor venue near you……open season for poaching our animals, trespassing, and raping our fish runs. Who is going to answer your call when a trespasser with an AR-15 is on your property? If you live in rural areas, who will answer your 911 call when the closest police is 45 minutes away? Who will look for the neighbor’s kid that wondered off in the woods and it is now dark out? I could go on and on but the stark reality is that if you covet your outdoor pursuits and as an extension your 2nd amendment rights, you need to contact your local representative and strongly voice your support for the DEC. Use language that if they support Hochul’s move to dismantle the DEC you will not vote for them. Thank you. 🙏

Cheesyrider, lots of great walleye fishing in NY and Pa waters. Our resident stocks are bolstered as the Ohio fish move east after the spawn. Normally mostly a night bite in NY in early May but daytime fishing picks up as the lake sets up. You don’t have to drive to Ohio for great fishing. As far as LEU activity it’s likely “tight lipped anglers” and not reflective of the great fishing. The good old days are now on Lake Erie. NY has the best perch stocks on the lake now and the parking lots are full(another reason guys keep their mouths shut). If you want a charter Come Fish Lake Erie site lets you pick a NY port and species then gives you a list of captain choices. Try Lake Erie in 2024.

Yankee Troller replied to peas247's topic in Classifieds - Buy, Sell, Trade or Rent
I've got a very lightly used Canadian Fishing Reels 2:1 Mooching Reel and a custom built rod by Mike Rumig. We don't use it very often, so I would part with it. $900 picked up. Reel is blue and silver. -
Boat tow insurance
rolmops replied to wallysackett's topic in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)
For the price that they charge and the peace of mind that it gives you, it's a no brainer. I usually trailer my boat so I added the trailer towing as well. Take a look at all the different packages that they offer and compare the prices to having to have your boat towed even only once. You can probably buy 5 years of towing insurance for the price of one uninsured towing event. I am a firm believer in Murphy's Law and it is my belief that the only reason why I never broke down on the water is because I bought the insurance. -
While it may be true that environments will continue to change, when the changes are brought about through human activities which includes invasive species the problem is that the changes happen so quickly that the environment can't respond fast enough. With zebra & quagga mussels, they cleared the water. This led to a much deeper weed line. This favored some warm water species. Interestingly, walleyes, which tend to lay their eggs along rocky shoals, have apparently benefited from zebra mussels in that some of the eggs get down in between the mussels. Go figure. Similarly, more weeds & clearer water was advantageous for pike which whose eggs have a natural adhesive that cling to the weeds. The mussels out-competed smelt which have disappeared. But the smelt were introduced anyway albeit delicious and a great prey source for the trout fishery. I believe that alewife were introduced as well. Rainbow trout, brown trout, and salmon are all introduced species. Personally, I think alligator gar, Argentine golden dorado, goliath tiger fish, wels catfish, and payara would all be fabulous introductions

Not trying to argue with you but here’s some bass tourney results….. https://www.wired2fish.com/news/avena-wins-bass-pro-tour-on-cayuga-lake These guys are filling bags with 5lb plus average fish. Those are St Lawrence and Lake Erie numbers which are World Class smallmouth fisheries. If you think that gobies are bad for bass fishing I really don’t know what to tell you. I can’t speak to sunfish but gobies have turned our bass and walleye fisheries in NY into destinations.

Join the club! I've been looking for a corded remote for my TR-1 for a few months now. I ended up ordering a wireless remote kit in hopes that it will fix my issues. Ebay is your best bet to find one... Goodluck! -

Not sure what you mean by locations near Rochester. I think it gets you perks at West Marine but the Roch store is pretty useless IMO. Better off investing in a reliable kicker! -
