  1. curious if this will make it to the board. Lots of good info.
  2. Thanks for reply's. Time to get a slip lined up.
  3. Memorial weekend....Anyone heard anything?
  4. This was Cayuga lake down by the fish ladder. Im guessing around. 2004 -2006 . Used to bring downrigger ball up and they would be stuck to the side of it. Ive got to say DEC did a good job getting them under control.
  5.  Just read up on your post about lead-core.Fishing news is scarce  this time of year. Things have been crazy for me. Did not fish much. I got four ambulance rides to the hospital with heart problems.  had a triple bypass that didn't go well.  Luckily [if you want to call it that]  Im a disabled vet otherwise I would be buried in Hospital bills.   Hopefully I will be squared away for next year...   My only project has been a electric winch on the boat trailer.   My fishing partner is in his 80s now.He cant help much with loading process.  You have been fishing alone for awhile I will probably be doing the same.  Last spring copper and orange were the colors for atlantics on the s end of Cayuga.  About all the fish info Ive got.  If im healthy next year I plan on joining the Thursday night lake league on Cayuga.

      Gee Stan that sound terrible. I’m sorry to hear about your health issues. That’s a bummer. I also am a disabled Vet but am plenty mobile right now. Agent Orange is starting to creep up on me. Dealing with hypothyroidism but that’s being contorted with meds. Hope that it stays that way. I’m waiting for the Syracuse Vet Hospital to arrange a appointment with a Hematologist here in Binghamton (Broome Oncology). My white blood count has been below normal a couple years and it just took a nose dive so the blood lab took my samples Thursday. The doctor hear said “ be sure you don’t cut yourself until we find out what is going on”. Ha ha, he doesn’t know what happens on the boat.

      Anyway. My last trip was Saturday. It was a great day fishing took nine rainbows, seven legal, two short. A few lake trout also. Deepest set was 60'. Most everything was caught between 35'-60'. Have to put the boat away now. I’ll probably fall into a minor state of depression for the next five months.    Only got one legal salmon this year. I’m losing my touch but the rainbows were willing to play. The pic is of the two I kept Saturday and released the rest.

      Hope you mend up real good this winter so you can get back to your normal fishing schedule next season.

  6. Looking for a roller boat trailer. Dual axle. in real good shape . For a 22ft Islander. Its not for me but putting this add up for friend.He plans on really using it so it needs good brakes tires etc...Galvanized would be the best but will consider painted. Pm me for contact or put some pictures up with this post...... . Located in central NYS or reasonable distance . Thanks Stan.........cash.....

  17. Ive got $7500 that says there is fish. Going to try to add $10,000 more.
  18. We fished only for lakers . This was 3rd place. It was skinny if it had shoulders and a full belly who knows what it would have weighed. Thanks Bear and Wiz for putting on the derby.
  19. Haven't been to the weigh in in so long I forgot where its at. Maybe this year. long overdue.Good luck to all.
  20. Nice fish. Great picture . Its coming back.
  21. I found them at Boston gear. Thanks for the tip. I am going to give my add a week in case someone has some parts. If no response I will order from them .
  22. Looking for the bronze drive gear for the downrigger pictured below. These are from the 80's. Still work fine but the drive gears are just about worn out. Still powerful but really noisy. Obsolete is what Big Jon told me. I bought these used in the early 90's third boat Ive had them on...I thought maybe someone on the board here might have some parts..
