Yankee Troller

Lee, this wouldnt be to start a new tournament trail to take the place of the Pro-Ams, would it? In talking with someone this weekend I hear they are trying to get one going in Oswego, the Salmon River is having one this year, and then there is the FH one. Thier intentions are to replace the Pro-Ams because they dont like the new format. I hope this doesnt happen becasue it would divide the lake and the unity we have built up the past few years.

Just came back from there. Lots of nice colored water, but didnt see any boats out. Heard that just this week the last ice disappeared.

$50 - OBO

Silver with black trim. Used sparingly over the years. $225 for the pair. Doesnt include mounts they stayed on the last boat.

Headed out on Jax's boat around 8am this morning for some non stop action. Firetiger, black and silver, black and gold seemed to be all we needed. 7-10 FOW doin 2-2.5 SOG. Boated 20 lost 6 or 7. All brownies ranging from 1lb-8lbs.

Nope, but we were thinking about it too! I think it looks good tinted, but there are the downfalls like anything else.

Yeah, thats where we wil be. Thats the boat house. I think the boat yard is further up the creek. Well, I guess I'll see you up there. Billy will be there too! Cold Steel, Candy, and a few others.

Mike - rolling lawns with my dad. Im helping him out after work and on the weekends. It basically pays for Wilson and the tournaments. Mark - Dont ya just love boats? If its not one thing its another. From the sounds of it your gonna have a nice new rig.

Adam, Its not recommened to hook a release to the weight. It affects the performance. I use blacks right above the weight, but im sure the scotty's will work too. I love mine and I think you will too. Chip told me he plans to market the 13lb weights this year sometime. They are awesome weights. I fished them down to 200' last memorial day to pluck kings off the bottom.

Cool! I saw the forecast and I am praying for rain

Oh, OK! Thats just down the creek from us then.

She's back and almost ready to go! Problem is the only way Im getting out in the next month will be if it rains! Its rolling season and we are hustling.

Rich - you staying at the boathouse for the LOC?

April might be a little bit too premature for the Salmon on the Bar. It all depends on weather. Mat is always a good bet though. I know Steve from King Me Charters will be stationed up there for the month of May. He is the owner of this website. Try and give him a shout to see if he has any open dates. If, and only if, he cant accomodate you I know a lot of guys up west that can including myself. Steve's a great guy with a nice boat, so give him a shout!

Ray - there is a launch at for niagara. That would make your run to the bar very quick!

Yeah, well after I gave up on my boat Sunday morning I shot out there on a depressed attitude. Left there $300 in the hole! So lets see....last week it was 260 and 300 this week. :shock: OUCH :shock: ! I have to stay clear of that place. On a side note the free test drive of the Tundra got me a $15 BPS gift card and a great impression of the new Tundras. They are SEXY! I might let the GMC go for one. Anyone looking for a crew cab truck has to check this one out. More leg room than any other crew I have been in. Needless to say the gift card went to a $17 jerkbait :shock: .

Im gonna have to say its coming from the West! Now with me fishing 7 out of 10 days I think I have a perty good chance. But with the way my luck has been going this past week Im guessing the swivel will staighten out with about 5' to go to the net!

Tim - STAY AWAY! BPS nabbed me for a couple hundred last weekend!

What are you saying? You dont like to put on 17 layers of clothes and go sit out on a frozen lake? You would rather have a spring king rip off hundreds of feet of line? WHATS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?

No problem! Thats what this board is for!

I use these quite often too! Although, I have never tried the orange ones for the coho. I like to run these off my SWR, and this rig helped me place at Sodus this past year.

I have fished the last two years without a speed and temp probe. But I seem to ctch fish by finding them with the FF. As far as speed goes check your cables and wire dipseys! Wouldnt leave home without a FF!!!!!!!! S&T can wait.

Hey Mike thanks for the offer, but right now Im a weekend warrior!

OK, so tell me when and I'll be there with boat in tow! You guide me. I have a feeling Billy V wants in on this too. Is the ice starting to flow down the river yet? If not when does it?

Hey guys........could I do this type of fishing out of my bass boat? I want to head up there, but for one I am too scared to run the river and secondly I dont know how to fish for them. Are my concerns for running the river valid? Can it get dangerous with shallow water areas?
