  1. Hey, will someone please give Toyota a brake...uh...err...break. Tom B. (LongLine)
  2. No problem Vince. I admit I was taken back a little. (Actually I said WTF!?) I didn't see another post in there. Here's a reply I got from one Legislator: Tom B. (LongLine)
  3. Ray - The kids call you Pa or your real name Town? Tom B. (LongLine)
  4. Use pinch pad release or mount release in line, as Tim said, above the probe. Tom B. (LongLine)
  5. That top black piece can't be turned over? No I guess not, then the pull point would be way to rear. I think I'd send them back. Tom B. (LongLine)
  6. He had that motor tilted way too much trying to get a lot of speed. Too much air under the boat. Also engine way to heavy. i.e not aerodynamic like the boat, so it came down first. Torque of the prop probably caused it to turn, then dug in with a little help from the driver's "wtf.' In other words - studipity. Tom B. (LongLine)
  7. Winburn - Can you take a night time photo? A Windfarm in Monroe County would be right in the flight path of the Monroe County airport & would have to really be lit up. Tom B. (LongLine)
  8. my email to Monroe County Legislators Bebee, Antelli, Andrews, Esposito & Gamble: Feel free to copy, paraphrase etc any/all Tom B. (LongLine)
  9. hey hey another Tom! Welcome to the site Tom. Lots of posts down below. Check them out then ask away & we'll see if we can help. Tom B. (LongLine)
  10. HB - suggest yopu go to Harbor Freight on E Ridge & buy a 12v screwdriver type test light. (roughly $5) Best investment for trailer lights I ever made. Also, with someone working the lights for you, check which filaments light up. Brightest ones should be the brakes. I couldn't get my brake lights to come on couple weekends ago, but others worked. I found some corrosion inside the socket. Cleaned it & greased the bulb contacts ...Whoa-la , let there be light! Tom B. (LongLine)
  11. GH73 - With the inside board set back, the set will pull a lot better. Tom B. (LongLine)
  12. rde - Don't forget the US has put in 50K a year for many years. Tom B. (LongLine)
  13. JK - Can you see Downtown when you're out on the lake in your kayak? The shore is roughly 6 miles from that tall square white building. That skyscraper is 412 ft tall. These turbines are 397 ft above the water line. NYPA is talking putting up 200 of them. Vince - It's a lot more than "In my back yard." That pollution thing is VERY REAL. Shoremont is the Monroe County water supply that backs up Honeoye & the other pond. We all know what the currents are like out there. Tom B. (LongLine)
  14. Please take a few minutes to report lamprey wounds with each trip. Link can be found in this article: http://www.mlive.com/outdoors/index.ssf ... _to_d.html Tom B. (LongLine)
  15. ALL fishermen, boaters (sail & power) & residents in Monroe County, Wayne County, Oswego & Jefferson have a big stake in this. If windfarms are put up off Rochester, you'll all feel the effect. Tom B. (LongLine)
  16. Definitely a nice one. (Atlantic) Tom B. (LongLine)
  17. Good to see you lakes are coming up stan. Wish ours would. Those storms you had earlier have helped. Hopefully not as many fires this year. Tom B. (LongLine)
  18. "Green" to an environmentalist means saving the planet. "Green" to a developer really means making money. Obviously NYPA is only trying to accomplish the latter. NYPA makes statements in their marketing programs refering to "green" energy to gain sympathic views and approvals from people worried about the environment. Developers put up the windfarms; collect the tax credits; then sell the farms. The new owners find out that they can't deliver on the promises made by NYPA because a proper cost analysis wasn't done, just like Lewis County found out. I'm glad this company took a look at the carrying costs before construction, otherwise Allegheny would have ended up with 55 derelicts that would probably be abandoned in 20 years. Tom B. (LongLine)
  19. HB - He's refering to the pic which appears to be taken in a parking lot in the village. Tom B. (LongLine)
  20. Tom B. (LongLine)
  21. Rochester & Monroe - Looks like we're up next. Come on Rochester - Do the right thing Tom B. (LongLine)
  22. Pen rearing has greatly helped the fishery. It's also kind of obvious that "lake guys" care a lot more about the fish than the "trib guys" ever thought we did. Tom B. (LongLine)
  23. That 5th one looks like some slime that washed up on the beach. err....7th one...sorry Ray Why does the boat have tires on it? Tom B. (LongLine)
  24. http://www.nyoutdoornews.com/articles/2 ... news03.txt Thanx LZ Tom B. (LongLine)
  25. hmn - I've been fishing out of the genny for a long time now. Believe me when I say that some days are terrific and others can be...well...hmm...uh...a real challenge. With Kids - go for the charter and learn the basics by seeing them in action. Tom B. (LongLine)
