  1. Announcement... We have extended our registration until Friday evening! There has been a lot of questions regarding Saturday's weather. As most of you know our event seems to attract the worst mother nature has to offer almost every year. As per our tournament rules we will not leave the dock under a small craft warning. If a small craft warning is issued the tournament will be moved to Sunday. Spread the word!
  2. The Great Lakes Fishery Commision is the lead agency on lamprey control and they handle all of the treatments on the great lakes including canadian water. Here is some good reading... http://www.glfc.org/control.php
  3. The probe rigger is always the first in for me and it is always my deepest rigger. It helps me find speed, current, temp all while dropping other things in the water. Once we get settled in we may make adjustments from there.

  6. I have had this happen with both steelhead and cohos. No worries i still have all my fingers afterwards.
  7. 250-300' of 20# mono would be good. Connect the two with an albright knot.
  8. I fish 12' minimum on my diver leaders. it has greatly increased the success of them. I will admit that short leads for spoons can have their days but short leads on flashers can hinder their action. The long leads means that we are forced to handline them to the net.
  9. Great meeting and yes very big crowd. The biggest we have had in a very long time.
  10. This might be my new favorite thread 😄
  11. Yes and Yes
  12. Awesome! I will add that when I am King fishing that my releases are extremely tight. However depending on what I am doing I may do a few other things. Lake Trout fishing (with cowbells) I use tethered scottty releases. They work great 100+ down and allow me to see my bites better. Another thing I do is use half hitched rubber bands along with my blacks releases in skinny water. The point is there isnt a one size fits all and different situations require different things.
  13. I run my releases extremely tight. Tight enough that most fish can not release them on their own. 20# kings struggle to release them. When a fish hits them I want to be able to get to them and release them. Not the fish. Lock them down and I bet your hook up ratio increases.
  14. My mid summer pick... Bald Eagle
  15. What release are you using? Blacks???
  16. Hey Everyone, Just a reminder that our next meeting is scheduled for Tuesday June 6 at 7pm sharp at the Irondequoit Fish & Game Club. Our meeting will feature Guest speakers Steve Hurst and Chris Legard from the NYSDEC. This meeting will be a "Q&A" style format so make sure you bring your questions. We are looking forward to continuing this annual meeting with the NYSDEC and see it as a replacement to the original State of the Lake formatted meetings of the past. The idea is to be more interactive with the crowd and the stake holders rather than just providing scientific data. As always our meetings are open to the public and encourage you all to attend.

  17. Take a look at this video Captain Pete posted on FB on his way back to the dock in wilson.... https://www.facebook.com/VisionQuestSportFishing/videos/1213151646010564
  18. The NYSDEC has a contract with the feds to do "hazing" during spring stocking. This was done last year also. The timing of the hazing is based off the release of the pen fish. They are allowed to shoot and kill birds besides just shooting fireworks and stuff. Lets hope NYS continues funding for this.
  19. I would recommend hooking it to the backing and not the copper
