Here is a shot of my rig. 17' Mirrocraft with almost an 8' beam. Nice thing with this is the gunnels are super stout and handle tracks/riggers no problem. Other neat thing Mirrocraft does is spray the inside of the hull with a bedliner type material. Makes for a really quiet ride. Had this rig for 11 years and love it. We trailer and fish where the wind allows and pick our days on Lake Ontario.

Have one set of triples- $100, one set of doubles -$60. Pick up in Tully or can arrange a meet. I drive all over CNY for work and can meet up somewhere. Sent from my SM-G950U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Ran out of room in the old one every once in a while so I decided to upgrade. Never be out of room again! Sent from my SM-G950U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Set up in the same spot as yesterday around noon. Crazy walleye action the first 15 minutes. Two keepers and 7 barely shorts as quick as we could get lines down.......then wind came up and was dead the rest.of the afternoon. Starting to realize that is less about lures, techniques, etc and more about the right place at the right time. That will probably conclude my Oneida lessons for the year.

Had a good day today. Out in front of South Shore Launch. Tried a 20 foot spot we had had caught perch in before. Only 6 for the first few hours. Moved out to our spot that had been good for walleyes in 26 feet around 11:30 and it was really good. Perch bit til 1 and then it was a walleye feast. Quit at 3 after being in C&R mode for an hour. Learned a few tricks today on getting the lookers to bite. Lure below was a stud today. Sent from my SM-G950U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

We tried the north shore this evening between Cleveland and Godfrey, 30 to 40 fow. Don't know if it was us or the bite, but we sucked. One perch and some short walleyes. Marked plenty, just no interest. We walked out without much problem. Should stay tight overnight and be easy to get around on in the morning.

I know the lake very well from my hours of trolling out there. Just don't know the hot spots that hold those buckets of big perch! Going to try to get out on the north side this weekend before the ice turns to mush.

I wouldn't even know where to go if I did have a machine! lol Just been fun getting out.

FWIW, we have been fishing in front of the island and towards the point to the West. 20 to 30 fow. Our mild success seems to be random at best. Another meals worth of filets tonight, 30 fow was best. No. 5 jigging raps in a green glow tiger deal and purpleescent has been good. It has been east getting out there with snowshoes, doubt you will make it out there without them with the warmer weather coming. Probably be a real mess by next weekend.

Skunked this afternoon in the same area. Short walleyes bit for 10 minutes just after 5. Sent from my SM-G950U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Decided to do some ice fishing on Oneida this year for the first time to try to catch a walleye. We have 4 trips under our belt and have done decent on the walleyes and a few jumbo perch. we are walking from the South Shore launch so we don’t get out too far. Just been setting up in 20 to 26 feet and been doing the jigging rap thing. Pretty random spot, usually nobody within a half mile of us. Walleyes seem to bite for an hour around 4 PM and we have done well getting them whenever we see them on the fish finder. Pack it up by 5:15, haven’t gotten them after that. Not crushing them, but we had three meals of walleye and perch this week. My son is a senior in high school this year and he has gotten into it with me and I am enjoying the tent time with him, as I know next year it will be a lot of solo trips. My observation is, just like any fishery, looks like 5% of the fisherman get 95% of the fish. Love to get one of those 5 gallon pails full that I see pictures of but I think we have to put a bit more time in to make that happen. We are persistent mothers, we will figure it out.

Plans are out now for the International Marina Rehab. Completion Date is July 2021.

I was fortunate enough a couple weekends ago to have a good ending to a horrible shot. Deer made it 29 hours or ao before we found him dead. Pauline, Chris and dogs Bruno and Radar did a great job and we had tremendous help with sportsman property owners that had seen him and gave us access to their property. Last property owner actually brought him out with his tractor for me. Very thankful for all the help. Personal best for me. Sent from my SM-G950U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I have been happy with Mirrocraft Aggressor that I have been running for 10 years. One neat thing they do is spray the interior hull with spray on bedliner. Really quiets things down. 1/4" aluminum floor too.

For reasonably price 7' blanks, Look at the Forecast SPG842, 843 ,844, and 845 blanks. I use the 842 for spring planer rods down to 6# leader and the 845s make killer salmon rods and copper rods. Best all-around is the 844. Suitable for kings and browns, and lots if inline board use for walleye trolling. I use a set of 843s for rigger rods for browns and walleyes. We have literally hundreds of satisfied customers using the rods from back in my building days. They are pretty bulletproof.

Sounds about like the Hammer Rig. An Oneida original.. https://www.bhammertackle.com/

Troll bite out in the main channel was really good this morning. Made a drift with harnesses and caught plenty too. Sent from my SM-G950U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

My son and I trolled up a quick limit tonight. Bare naked reef runners on inlines and perch rapalas on the riggers. 35 to 40 fow Sent from my SM-G950U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Tried to do a deep water troll on the south side yesterday but too rough. I can actually say i think saw a 6 footer go by. Slid in shallower and got 6, all on bare naked reef runner. Back 100 on 20# power pro. 20 to 30 feet.of water. Sent from my SM-G950U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

We sent him back, but he was 29.5" long and 25' girth. We think around 20#. Getting a reproduction mount done.
