Sandy Creek Shootout -Escape
GAMBLER replied to GAMBLER's topic in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)
My crew will bust my balls about this for years to come. It will be talked about more than winning two of the last four shootouts!🤣. On a good note, boat shopping will begin in the fall. My wife has been telling me to buy a new boat. Daycare payments are done in five weeks!!! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app -
Well, it was a horrible week for the Escape crew. It all started on Monday when I tried to take Jim, Sam and my son out fishing. Got the boat to the lake and it wouldn’t power up. Back to the dock and Tom Barbera quickly diagnosed the issue (bad control module). I ran and got the part and we were back in business for Tuesday’s trip. Big Fish Friday greeted us with some of the toughest fishing I have seen in years. On the way in, I hit the hot tub that is submerged in the creek going around some kayakers. Once again Tom Barbera quickly got us back up and running for Saturday’s big event. We started the morning west of port doing a North south troll covering 150-400. The bite was good but the size was lacking. We put a 20,16 & a 14 pound king along with a small brown in the box. At 11:30, we decided to pick up and run to the laker ground to upgrade the brown ad small king in our box. After a long run, I set the boat down just shy of our weigh points from Friday. 30 seconds after shutting down, the boat dies. I can not get it restarted!!!!! We tried to figure out the issue with Help from Tom once again with no luck. After a phone call, Matt Daphinee offered to tow us in. We ended up finishing 3 spots out of the money for only the third time in the 12 years the shootout has been running. I would like to thank Matt, Tom, Duane, Keith, Bear and the rest of the Sandy crew that assisted us getting into port safely. The people on Sandy are second to NONE. I would like to congratulate Team Eastfork Barberians on their awesome 8+ lb victory! Impressive as hell and well deserved!

Releasing fish
GAMBLER replied to Captain Mr. Mike's topic in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)
Boga grips are a great tool when used properly. There have been studies done showing injuries to fish when held vertically on a Boga. When Large trout, pike and musky are held vertically, their internal organs slide down and can be damaged. It can also damage their spine. There was a big write up in the DEC regulations a couple years ago about it. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app -
Due to the covid shutdown last year, covid restrictions in other countries, the supply chain for manufacturing has been disrupted and we are still seeing the ripple affect. I have been dealing with it for my business for a while but it is slowly getting better. One company I order from has a manufacturing plant in Mexico. There plant was running at 25% due to staffing restrictions (government covid mandates).

Huge Brown
GAMBLER replied to Glenn -Brazee's topic in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)
There was another pig caught out of Rochester the other day. 23lbs..... Crazy when the browns disappear in the spring how many slobs are around. Oh and for those that thought the small browns were decimated by the cormorants the last two years, they were not. Plenty around when I have brown fished this summer. -

If you have any kinks in the cable, you will lose weights. Keep a close eye on the cable. I run Amish Outfitter down rigger snubbers.

When I fish lakers, I fully commit to lakers because the other rods get in the way. I run two riggers on the bottom with cowbells and that is it. I used to run a third rigger with a Flat fish or quickfish clean 20' up and 40' back, a thumper rod with cowbells and divers but we would get 4-5 lakers on at once and it was actually counter productive. We had too much downtime redeploying everything. If you have time, go to youtube and search Gambler Rigs and watch the video I posted a couple years ago. It shows how good laker fishing can be if it is done right.
