I sell Pro Guide 36v lithium batteries at Krezner Marine. Let me know if you're interested in one. It will require a new battery charger, which I have as well.

I have two I plan to put in parallel on my new Smokercraft.

Hey Rich, do you run spoons behind flashers on your Dipsey Rigs?

No we don't.

Rich— what do mean when you describe you location as the north line 27 to 30?  I try to follow your trip report via my I-boating nautical chart app…Are these LORAN TDs or something else…It does not appear to be lat/longs as Oak Orchard is roughly 43~44 N and 78~79 W.  I even checked the decimals (i.e., 43.27 to 43.30) and it’s south of Oak Orchard.

 

Thanks again for your excellent reports…very educational.

They are GPS coordinates. Oak Orchard is located about 22N 12W. So, for example, 30N is about 8 miles offshore.

Go away with that nonsense. If you really want a fish to promote go with a hybrid Chin-Ho. Some of the largest Salmon that get caught each year are these hybrids.

Nice report. Rick, did you get the sense that the water was starting to stabilize from the goofy weather we had last week that really screwed things up?

No clue man. The wind is only gonna get worse as Summer slips away.

How deep is 350' copper at 2.5 mph? (4 km per hour)

In my head I budget 22' for spoons and 20' for flashers per 100' of copper in the water.

Is there an advantage to running copper instead of lead core?

Steeper dive curve

Congrats! So, what are you buying

I was wondering if anyone can shed any light (confirm or deny) a rumor going around that some of the East end captains are looking to meet with the DEC to discuss the shrinking size of King salmon with consideration for a moratorium on stocking for two years?

I'd like a moratorium on Salmon fishing in the Salmon River, but I get laughed at. 

Your fish looks like a Coho. Not a Bow.

Hi was wondering with a moor subtroll could run a black release above the probe and the signal go through the metal connector on the release or does the probe have to be connected and the end of the coated cable 

                           Thanks

I've done it for years. 

We collaborated with FishUSA a few weeks ago, and here is a video from that outting.

Sorry if this was asked already.. but where did all these fish come from?  Or what has caused these fish to feed so aggressively? Many years out on the lake and never witnessed a bite as long and constant as it currently is. Great year to get new people into the sport fishing game. 

One thing is constant, unless they are lying to us, the US and Canada stock the same amount of fish each year. The variable is the wild reproduction. I'm not very smart, but I'd guess there was a banner wild reproduction class.
