  1. I mostly run Stingray sized spoons but run mags all season. Divers or coppers are usually rigged up with Mags. Dont be afraid to run them for browns too! A lot of guys are hung up on small spoons for browns but I have taken my two biggest browns in my career on mag spoons.
  2. We had to drill a hole in my stringer to get it to fit.
  3. I am sitting at work next to a guy that owns a cottage on in island in the West end of Onieda and he said it was all shad and Carp but the carp had arrow holes in them. The big thing about shad is, they are at the Northern end of their range.
  4. Don't know but usually there is winter kill with shad. No winter kill and stress from spawning? Who knows. I wouldn't be too worried about a shad die off. If it was a lot of different species, I would worry.
  5. From the pics I saw, it looked like big gizzard shad.
  6. They are aluminum and powder coated.
  7. I'm not sure. I will ask Eric and let you know. I believe they are steel. I know the cup holder is stainless.
  8. Custom powder coated tool/drink holders. There are two sizes. Large are $175 small are $150. These will fit in standard rod holder tracks. Contact Eric Peter (585)317-0013.
  9. It could have been possible if Lake Erie was colder than Lake Ontario. Without the temp map of Erie from the days prior, we don’t know.
  10. Its more than likely not the Niagara plume. We had NE winds last weekend. NE winds = upwelling. Upwelling in more pronounced when water temps and densities are further apart. Right now the lake temps is not that warm. In August when the water is in the 70's, it doesn't take much to have an upwelling event.
  11. Lots of factors involved. Time of year, How bad it upwelled, ect. Cool downs sometimes fish will be in the same area sometimes they move offshore. A full upwelling, head offshore.
  12. Our intake temp at work is sitting at 47 degrees right now. It was 56 degrees Saturday before the NE wind. Not a full upwelling but temps cooled inside.
  13. Congrats again Mike! It's cool to see the kids getting older and putting in the work!
  14. I ordered an extra vent cover for my camper and need to get rid of the extra. $25.00 local pick up in Hilton NY
  15. If you placed in this past weekends Seneca Lake National Lake Trout Derby with Gambler Rigs product, head over to the Gambler Rigs Facebook page and leave a photo and a story to be entered in to a contest for some free gear!
  16. Lots of small bait a couple weeks back. It’s a great sign!
  17. Rod is in good condition. $25.00 pick up in Hilton NY. I will not ship this rod.
  18. I will not be back down to the boat until next week. I will take some and send them to you.
  19. I just had it done by East Fork Pro Marine in Hamlin NY this spring. Install looked pretty easy. The pain in the butt part was bleeding the air out of the system.
  20. He The chances of finding bloater in a Trout or salmons stomach is next to none when their population is so low.
  21. Bloater are native to the Great Lakes. The feds are all about restoring native species. Restoring native species should be a high priority IF the species are highly successful and it doesn't disrupt the multi-million dollar fishery. Bloater could be a positive for the fishery. Without experimenting, they will not know. Lakers could key in on them and put less pressure on alewife. We all know a diverse diet is healthier for ALL the species in Lake Ontario. It can't hurt to experiment. I would rather see them dump money into a Bloater experiment than expanding the Atlantic program.
  22. I have had great luck with their customer service in the past. My probe quit well after the warranty and I sent it in to have it fixed. It was fixed free of charge!
