Derby fishing by yourself
GAMBLER replied to [email protected]'s topic in Tournament Talk, Shows, Events & Seminars
If you fall out of the boat alone, you are done. It happened off Toronto last year. The boat drove until it hit shore and was found. They recovered his body days later. You will not be able to swim fast enough to catch back up to your boat. If someone is with you, you can be picked up. So 2 people is a lot safer than one.

Started the morning on Friday with huge waves from the NE. Left port and slowly made our way to 100’ and started there. Trolled into the waves to the NE out to 300’. We worked in and out all day and had a decent bite until it slowed at 9am. At 12:30, in 120, we boated a 22.46 king that put us in 6th place for Big Fish Friday. Saturday morning we were greeted with a clam lake. With the way conditions were changing on Friday, I was afraid the water we found holding fish was going to be gone. We set the boat down in front of the creek in 120’ and was pleasantly surprised to see nothing had changed over night. We worked 105-125’ all day and had an insane king bite. We ran 6 meat rigs and two spoons. At 7:30, the wire takes off and runs off 520’ on the first run. After a long battle with many runs, we boated a 28.7lb king. At this point in the day, we had the 28.7, a 20.6, a 20.1 and a 18.4 in the box. We continued to grind the same waters as the other boats in the area decided to head offshore. At 11:15, the 200’copper pulling an Atommik meat rig takes off. After a short battle, we made a 3 lb upgrade. At weigh in, we ended up taking first place, first place in the Calcutta, biggest king and biggest king for the Calcutta. Here what we took fish on over the two days of fishing. Atommik Shenster meat rig Atommik Double Crushed glow meat rig Atommik UV Grinch Meat Rig Minion Key lime meat rig Minion Carbon 14 meat rig Moonshine Carbon 14 mag Moonshine Geezer mag Dream Weaver Uv Two Face Regular. Atommik Stud Fly behind a Hammer Time Flasher. A huge thank you to my crew! You guys are awesome and make our team run like a well oiled machine! I would also like to thank Rob and Tim for their hard work getting this tournament together! Congrats to all the other teams that placed and won prizes.

Started the morning in 120 right out front. Lots of hooks but only one coho cooperated in the first hour. Slid out to 150 and there were less marks but they were more willing to bite. Steady bite on mature Kings. The highlight of the day was my son getting his new personal best king at 21lbs! 60-90 down mostly on meat and flashers and flies. Spoons were pretty quit except for a couple skippy kings and one teenager. 350 & 400 coppers were very busy all day. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I read news from all the outlets and then research for myself. CNN lost 100% credibility with me during the impeachment hearings. Every time the Republicans would question the witnesses, CNN would move to another story. As soon as the Democrats were back to questioning, they would return to the hearings. Showing half the story (what you want your viewers to believe) is BS. People need to research for themselves before they form an opinion. It takes time and most are too lazy.

Outlook for Sunday 7/19
GAMBLER replied to garrymny's topic in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)
It depends on how long it stays SW. SW 10-15 is fishable. 10-15 West is bumpy but sometimes doable. -

I use them for cutbait rigs and Gambler Rigs. Great storage solutions.

New Boat!!! Who has new cannon mag 10’s in stock?

Niagara, Orleans, Wayne, Oswego and Jefferson counties promote the hell out of the fishery. Monroe County could care less. It sucks for the Charter guys in Monroe County. They have a huge resource in their backyard and could get more tourism but the county falls flat on their faces with the fishery.

You guys think they suck on a fishing rod, try treating water that is filled with them! They chew up chlorine like crazy! About 8 or 9 years ago, we were getting huge chlorine demands on the pretreatment in our plant. The boss was perplexed. I told him over and over again that it was Fleas. He didn't believe me. The next day I brought in a spool of 10lb power pro and dropped it in the flow coming into the plant. After and hour, it had filled top to bottom with fleas.

I would challenge this statement. Monroe County is under promoted and does not have a huge fleet of boats. Ever see any advertisement for Monroe County fishing? Wayne County Tourism does a great job of promoting the fishery. Monroe County could care less about the fishery. Sandy is a tiny port now that the one marina is closed, Ibay doesn't have a lot of guys compared to the years the Newport House was open, Braddocks has a handful of regulars and the River has a decent charter fleet. I would be willing to bet Sodus Bay, Hughes, Pultneyville has pretty close to the same number of fishing boats than Monroe county. With Wrights Marina closed in Oswego, there has been a bunch of captains and rec anglers that migrated to Sodus and Hughes this season too. Monroe County waters are also stocked with 106,879 Browns compared to 48,720 browns (2018 stocking data).
