  1. What we do in that situation is you dont reel in another fish until your fish on the board slips off... Sucks but thats the best way. Good Luck!!
  2. I have discussed in length with the sound engineers here at the engineering firm I work for and they say the sound disipattes rapidly after hitting the water almost no penetration past a few feet. As for your setup sounds perfect for what you are doing! Tell me are you fishing Sebec or Moosehead?? Thats where I learned what trolling for togue was all about! Love that part of the country. I used to spend every summer on Lake Sebec. Good Luck to you!!! Oh we used to pull Lead cores with great success.
  3. There is a Big Fish Contest this weekend at Salmon Country Marina in the Little Salmon River. 25.00 to enter per boat Payout is 5 places by percentage.

  4. PJ you dont need it to fish with me as our other teamate is not in........ Yes that means you PETE!!!!!! I left you a voice mail PJ!!
  5. Nice Fish!! It lasted less then 12 hrs at the top! As Matt-Wrong Rod out of Dowie Dale Boated a 32.8 Pig today!!! Cant wait to see whats coming!
  6. Pete- That was to much man!!! I miss those days of Club soccer Tourneys!!!! Now I hang out at fishing tourneys.....
  7. Way to GO BIG OR GO HOME Rod!!! Those of us in the corner, say that about running up there!! You are either going to be a Hero or a Zero!!! Nice Job getting your Son on the Board! Brian
  8. Thanks for all the responses but we are all set now!! See everyone there!!
  9. I am with Glen on this the proven teams are as follows Captain Rigger Driver in some cases also the Captain but not always. 2 rod man whos only job is to get the rods when they go off and put the fish in the boat-Period!! People that fish with me on my teams know there job when they step on the boat. I believe wholeheartedly that more then 1 person in MOST INSTANCES deciding what goes in the water is a major hindrance to the boats program. As we know ALL boats fish totally different. What works on my boat will in most cases not work on your boat..... I have proved this theory many times over!! Case in Point and I hope I dont give to much away Glen! LOL! Last year in Sodus when Glen wasnt sinking he was catching fish on the Fast side say 2.8 to 3.0 and he let me know of this as we work together. I dont typically catch fish at fast speeds, Glen finished his limit and I slide into his area when he was done and gave the fish my program at 1.8 and finished my box in an hour!!! What I am getting at is to many cooks in the kitchen will keep you out of the money almost everytime. Nothing wrong with team meetings and lord knows the Princess (my driver) and I have a few of those on occasion.....But in the end its the Captains final choice! And yes second place is just the first loser!!! Thats why the pro ams are not for everyone and thats ok!!
  10. Team Tall Tails is in need of an Observer for the Wayne County Pro-Am. We are a pro division boat. I can not provide lodging but I will pay 100.00 per tourney day. There is a Capt meeting on friday that you will need to attend as well. Please email at [email protected] or send me a PM. Thanks Brian
  11. I personally didnt like the boat entry and that is the main reason I wasnt participating. I couldnt go to my friends boat and fish with them during that time frame because I have my capts lic. I also wasnt goin to pay 575.00 to win 575.00. I would pay 80.00 or even a 100.00 to win 500.00. I would even pay 100.00 to win 250.00 but not even money.... Make it a personal entry not a boat entry and I am in for sure!!!!!! Thanks again for all your hard work in the LOC Dave as it is the best DERBY on the Lake!!!!!!!!!!
  12. I have 2 used Big Jon Otter Boards taking up space in my tackle room. 125.00 for the pair plus shipping. I will be in Oak Orchard Friday thru Sunday so you can pick them up there if you want. I will be in Olcott on Thursday. PM if interested.
  13. What is the Latest News?? I havent heard much recently... I did however have a "GOOD" Friend of One of our Female Senators on a charter a few weeks ago and as he was watching the Sunrise from the east as we ran down the lake from Olcott. I asked him how he would feel about watching that same sunset with turbines in the middle of them... He was not pleased at all and asked what he could do about it. I asked him to talk to anyone who would listen. He was going to make a Phone call to some "people" he knew politically to discuss it. I think anything helps at this point in the game. Brian

  16. My girlfriend won on day 2 while we were fishing on the gorgeous Zip and Zim! I say GET IN THIS DERBY!!!!! Bob called Marlene that night to congradulate her and we had a nice long discussion, we are very pleased that this derby is back!!
  17. And they brought back a an old standby color!!!! CANT WAIT!!!!!!!
  18. Harbor resort in Olcott is open. You can launch in a minute from there. Bathrooms are clean and large. We stay there for the month of May with our 5th wheel.
  19. If it were me and I was shore fishing the hotel side of the Oswego should still be holding fish.....
  20. Left actually about 12 miles to the left. It is 4 mile east of the niagara river. I would imagine with the HEAVY norhwest wind we are going to recieve the next 2 days the fish maybe spread out to Wilson or beyond!
  21. Lets see the pic!! I was in Olcott all weekend and didnt hear anything about it.....
  22. From what I heard this weekend in Mexico Bay the south wind Friday night took all the color away. I had heard they smoked them friday, and it was everyyhing they could do to generate a bite on Saturday. With the lake blowing northwest this week hopefully it will set back up again with some color. In that case where the water is clear dont hesitate to move out to some depper water maybe 30 to 40 and put your rigs on the bottom. A lot of times BT's will slide out a bit when the shore water is Gin Clear. Brian
  23. I had Roy in the boat as well!! LMAO!! Pete if the "Princess" is Happy Everybody on Board is Happy!!!! She was excited to catch all the fish on Saturday!!
