  1. I dont want to tell a "seasoned" guy like you how to fish, but that niagara outflow can change currents pretty fast. Its crucial to keep that probe in the water on the west side becasue of this. Your lures down might be going to slow.
  2. I dont know, i didnt think about that. Call Denis Daniels at Sea Tech Marine Training. He taught a lot of us who hold a CG license. He would be able to help you.
  3. A captains license is only good on navigatable waters. So Conesus and Honeyoye for example would require a guides license. And if by chance you do choose one of those two you also have to get an additional permit from the state which is another test. If you wanted to do trips on a stream, or ice fishing, or on lakes like canandaigua or Seneca you would need a just a guides license.
  4. 2 spoons? YEAH RIGHT! Would you really go out with 2 spoons? Id rather watch roland martin whale back on a 12in bass before I hit the water with 2 spoons. Mulatto would be a main stay, but the other would be betweena coyote and a copper NBK. One to cover the morning bite and the other for the rest of the day.
  5. The only problem with a free slider is you really dont know where it is and can be in empty water. If the fish are at 100' down and you put a free slider out it will probably only get to 50. On a side note that is where the big steelies might be and the reason why I dont get them
  6. What kind of boat do you have? If its a hard top then its easy, but if its not you would need a radar arch. My old man built one for our penn yan we used to have. There are many places, mostly independent, that can do the custom work for you. I know this has been discussed a lot on the Great Lakes Angler board. Let us know and get some pics of the boat for us and Im sure we can help.
  7. I know i didn't see any of that money! If I knew you were handing it out I would of accepted a small amount.
  8. Is that ice in the first picture normal? I would have to run my boat through that if I went there this weekend?
  9. Ray - they had a seminar from the DEC that showed everything you wee requesting. If you weren't running around harassing buyers maybe you could have sat in on it! It was very interesting information.
  10. He was a young male and he was shy. I felt real bad about it. He seemed to be there by himself.
  11. It all depends on what you want to spend. If you stick with Daiwa you can get by fairly cheap with a great set-up. For rods you have 2 choices. Heartlands and the new wilderness rod. I think they run $30 and $20 respectively. AS for reels you have the sealines and the accudepth plus, and they run 100 and 40 bucks respectively. If you took the cheaper of each above you can get into a nice set up for well under 100 bucks. As for the wire there are many companies with Malin and Mason being the most popular and available. Make sure you get 1000' spool.
  12. I meant Royal flush and not liquid plummer. Sorry!
  13. Were you the Adam that introduced yourself to me? Im pretty sure!
  14. First and foremost I would like to thank the LOTSA organization for the whole expo. This was most definately a great way for you to get Lake O fisherman together on a winter day as cabin fever has been bugging us all! This organization does a crap load for the lake in general and is something that anyone who enjoys our fishery whoudl be a part of. They fight for and protect our resources. I will be joining them very soon! I think this was a great show. From the seminars to some great deals on fishing equipment. I put a lot of faces with screen names across many forums that i participate on. Crazy Ray was there harassing everyone! Clarke from watterlogged was trying to pick Vinny's head so he can win some money in the pro-ams this year! Jax found some billy baroos and a Cindy that dives to 40ft.! I met motorman, and a few others which i appologize for leaving out. ---->Oops I almost forgot that Tim B dude! Nice to finally meet ya! The seminars were priceless! Listening to some of the best fisherman from the West and East was great. You would have thought these two guys were fishing diferent bodies of water! I dont care how much you think you know guys like Vinny and Ernie do this every day and they will always know more! One of the most facinating seminars was that of Frank Campbells. He touched on Niagara steelies and how to rig for them. As soon as I left the expo I was on the phone with MANIAC scheduling a trip there as early as this upcoming weekend. Lastly, if anyone can put me in touch with the Liquid Plumer team e-mail I would really appreciate it. One of the teammates struck up a conversation and then i was interupted by another person and when i turned around he was gone. Just want to toss an appoligy his way!
  15. Tell me about it! The facilities at the Boat house are amazing! Nothing like it in Rochester and we are 100 times the size of that town! Its sickening!

  17. Died hard? WTF is that? Oh! Thats right, you meat Habenero!
  18. My uncle is Mike Spinelli and he sold a lot of props in the Rochester area for a very long time. He sold everything a few years back, but last time I talked with him he was going to get back into it. I guess retirement gets boring?????????????? His prop was used to get the first bass boat over 100mph. The boat manufacture was Bullet Bass Boats. The story gets even better! The kid who used to drive these boats for Bullet in the test phase left his job to move to another state and get married! I dont kow if I could leace that job!
  19. Yeah, I agree with L&M. I had a 21' and the gunnels were rly high, and so was Billy's 24. I have also been on Billy's 29 and the 288's and those were fine too. It differs by model.
  20. This sum bi*ch! Last time I help you out up west! I also know where your boat is docked Spring and Summer You may find a present in it some day! Oh by the way click on this and scroll down. No Lakers or Browns for this team! http://www.crazyyankeesportfishing.com/your_captain.htm
