Fished Cayuga Saturday afternoon. 3 nice rainbows 5 lbs was the biggest and 2 lakers 8 lbs biggest. Yellow and purple spoons 

It was still snotty when we left at 10am. Stayed at Sunset and it was rocking and rolling all night. The wind was actually loud inside the cabin.

I have been out of Oswego the last 4 days. If you can get out the fish are there. 

We are out in 150 in oswego. Nice and flat and the fish were snapping this morning

That where we are staying next week.

Port?

I will be coming to Oswego the last week of August for some salmon fishing. Looking for a place to buy some herring strips when i get there. Any suggestions?

I know its a long shot however I am looking for a recoil starter for a 82ish chrysler 6hp. Its the spool and spring that I need. hoping someone has one kicking around and would like to turn it into cash.

nevermind

Biggest left media hoax ever perpitrated on the American people.

We have just found the test dummy for Covid tongue kisses.

I got a bunch of rebel fast traks we used to run in the late 80s. orange tiger and chartreuse tiger were always good in the stained water.

I was with my buddy when he launched his car.Backed in to pull the boat out and the car jumped out of park and back she went. Good thing the trailer jack knifed, that ramp drops into 30 feet 10 feet past the end. Got pulled out by a guy with a truck, first time we stopped on the way home it was like a tidal wave coming from the back seat.

And especially if these clowns are from out of state . 

 

 

I guess this clown from out of state will not plan on coming for the next couple years. I am sure once this is over the finger lake area would appreciate the 2 grand I drop every year fishing.

And what if Trump says may 1 or earlier for low impacted area and a wait and see in higher impacted.

 

Again at the moment you are just making things up. Trump's own words are is that it will be done in stages by impact not all at once

Trump has no say when states start easing restrictions. He my withhold funding from the states and stomp his feet. As a constitutional republic he has no jurisdiction over the individual states.

Up until now, I have been extremely silent on my personal feelings on how the COVID-19 pandemic is being handled by the public. But I feel like after the things I saw, both in person and on social media, and heard over the last few days, especially yesterday, I can’t be quiet anymore.

 

Yesterday, after finishing my weekend shifts at University of Pennsylvania Hospital in Philly, I was driving home to my parent’s house. I was passing Boat House Row and the trail on the river by Kelly Drive. The amount of people I saw on this trail brought me to tears, I’m not joking I literally started to cry on 76 in my car still in my scrubs. I had to have passed over 100 people on this trail, all within arms distance of each other, most without any sort of mask on.

 

I don’t care that it was 70 degrees in Philly yesterday. I don’t care that you’re “going crazy” inside your house. I don’t care that yesterday was Easter and you wanted to see distance relatives. My colleagues, in all departments at all healthcare facilities, and I go to work for shifts ranging from 8-24 hours long and work directly with COVID positive patients. We see how devastating this disease is first hand. We are the only people who actually see it at its worst since these poor patients can’t have family come and see them. No visitors to ANY patient in the hospital, including the non-COVID floors. We come home and have serious talks with our loved ones about how we’re going to handle this as a household. My parents and I literally had a conversation last week about how they are willing to risk contracting the virus, and potentially dying, in order for me to be home with them when I’m not working. My roommate in Philly who is a nurse has been staying with people she works with to not bring it home.

 

You assholes who think you’re above this are bike riding on a trail to “clear your head”. The most exercise some of you have seen in 10+ years. You’re going to friend’s/families’ houses and then going back to your own, breaking your quarantine and risking everyone around you. And bragging about it by posting on social media that you’re with people who aren’t in your household, at a house that isn’t yours. Going to Target and Walmart to just get out of the house, contaminating everything in the store and putting others at risk. Going to a freaking church service on a roof when they are broadcasting masses on TV that you don’t have to leave your home for.

 

YOU are the reason this quarantine is as long as it is. YOU are the reason people are getting sick and dying. YOU are the reason so many of my friends (and myself) haven’t seen their parents, siblings, kids, grandparents in over a month. NOT the government. I am absolutely BEGGING everyone to stay inside. If it is not essential to your survival, please don’t leave your house. You‘ll live not exercising outside for a few months, some of you who have been going outside have been preparing your whole lives for that, don’t start now. Take it seriously now, don’t wait until someone you love is affected to start caring. You want to post “thank you health heroes” on your social media? How about you actually give a rats ass about us and stay inside.

This guy gets it. I am essential personnel also. Drive to work, drive home, stay there. Go for my evening run alone. Call my dad and son. If everyone from the very top down had taken this seriously in February we could possibly be beating or at least containing this virus. As it sits now its going to be a long summer sitting on the porch.

I would argue that this is targeting the business aspect of marinas and launches, not the use of launches.

I will bet this also means free golf at public courses, not that people can't golf.  But I guess we need clarification from law enforcement.  Let's keep fingers crossed.

I read through the entire press release. Boat launches and marinas have been to be determined non essential unless supporting law enforcement. usage is subject to a fine of up to 10,000.

 our government will never tell the American people the real truth. all reports we hear from china make no sense. I think they have over a million dead already. our brain dead media tells us we have lost more people here than china. who do you think is causing all this fear. the democrat controlled media. our state is a sanctuary state. every city in this state is sanctuary. this is why ny leads this nation with this virus.  

Continuing with the partisan hate is doing nothing to help. The cats out of the bag and all we can do is try and contain it at this point or do nothing then stack the bodies up. Your choice.

I am seeing a lot of kids outdoors, and not just fishing. I would add that everyone, not just kids, will be more grateful for everything around us.    

Thank you. My wife was complaining about not getting toilet paper at the store. I quipped back. Be thankful. she said for what I replied we have food on the table, we are both still working and nobody we know is sick. This is terrible for everyone.however if we all work together as a nation we can pull through to the other side of this tragedy.

Tell that to mothers against drunk drivers , the kids at Sandy hook . 

 

There are risks in life . Maybe I die or worse a family member . But at some point , you have to take the risk and let the chips fall where they may . 

Maybe you are foolish enough to take that risk which BTW is a lot higher than getting killed in an auto accident or getting shot by a domestic terrorist. I for one have enough compassion for my fellow man to take this virus seriously.

1 major difference between how we handle the virus here in the US vs how countries like South Korea and China that have both successfully contained the virus is masks.  Both of those countries basically mandate using masks...here we lie and tell everyone they aren't useful so we don't run out as we don't have the back stock of masks.  I think for my trips the only way I can see to minimize my risk is gloves and masks.  I'm hoping masks and gloves become available...my first trips aren't until May for walleye, though I may try and do some crappie trips before walleye.  

The other difference is they forced everyone to stay at home period. No work, no shopping no seeing grandma. If the US had done this 3 weeks ago we could have nipped this in the proverbial bud. The cats out of the bag now and its going to be a much longer time(6-18 months) before this is contained. But hey we got an extra 2 weeks of the stock market looking good before it collapsed. Dow 12k is on the way.

With that logic we should outlaw booze , guns , motorcycles , etc, etc, etc. 

 

 

Booze, guns,motorcycles are a choice. Your grandma/wife/son/grandchild  dying from a virus is your choice by bringing it to them.

Not a very realistic statement 

what is not realistic about my statement? The problem as I see it is you re valuing the economy over the citizens of the country. The economy will recover dead people never recover.
