Gator

Yeah, a fresh deer carcass with hair spread out over twenty yards and scat all over the place. And a couple of spots where the brush was beat down in a 15' foot circle. But no trail cam pics. I think that this was his second year at my place. Probably a male passing through in the late winter early spring.

As promised, limits of 20" plus fish every day. Unreal the colors on these guys. Check out the montage my buddy Bill put together. We've also done striped bass to 28" and snapper blues. The weather has been calm and partly cloudy. What a great trip!

I'll be in West Falmouth in six hours. And I'll have a limit of BSB over 20" in seven! Five days of chasing feeds in Buzzards Bay and Vineyard sound. Keep your fingers crossed for light winds. I'll report when I get back.

I'm with Weave. The tunnel provides an alternate route for the water to get to Lake Ontario, but it doesn't change the amount of water that enters the River. I think that if the falls were the major resistance to flow, then yeah, diversion from above the falls would increase flux. But I don't think it is. I teach renal blood flow, and this seems to be an analogous system. If you kink a hose and make a hole above the kink, then you'll get more water flowing. If you make the hole below the kink, you won't. Where's the resistance in the Niagara? That's key to figuring this out. I suspect that it's above the falls, but what do I know? I'll ask my brother, who is a hydrologist.

That doesn't look like coated cable in the picture. Have you been able to run a Moor using regular downrigger cable? I didn't think that worked, but what do I know?

We passed him as he was headed out toward the mouth. Same message, but no check. With the holiday tomorrow, you know there will be someone who pushes it and gets a ticket. Don't be that guy.

Wow. I'm going to guess you're in the minority running four riggers in place of junk lines or divers (which are our top producer most days), and particularly going 3.5 mph - that's hauling some serious a$$ - but whatever works, right?

We'll be at Buzzard's Bay in two weeks for a four day weekend. My buddy just barely got his boat ready for today's opener...they buried his trailer'd boat behind several rigs on blocks and he had to wait until they were gone before he could get to his new ride. That would drive me nuts. Still, he did okay today on BSB, but it's at least a week behind past years.

The call for tomorrow will be two surface lines and two 125' coppers, all run off the Otter Boats, complemented with two slide divers and two rigger rods. If we slide out deeper I may throw a 300' copper out the chute. In June we'll transition to running in line planing weights between 1 and 4 ounces on the short copper, and at some point the shorts will become longs (400' and 500' off the boards). The surface and slide diver rods will morph into double wire Dipsys. I find it difficult to justify running more than eight rods with the law of diminishing returns (but an exponential increase in tangles). And of course we catch all the fish we want on eight rigs (not including Snoopy) anyway lol.

Agreed. This is the motor setup I run on my Lund and it's the bomb. I got it at Gander years ago when they were having a half off sale for one day only. I put a notice on LOU to spread the wealth and some googan went and bought out their stock. Then, to add insult to injury, he/she tried to sell it for a profit on here.

So, what all y'all are telling us is that we have Yankee to blame for the traffic at the Bar? Notice he said one of the days was a bust. Lakers and coho. I'd stay home and fish bluegill lol. Tear 'em up, boys.

Snoopy pole, june bug spinner and a worm combo. Just like normal.

Hey Tommy, I think the reason folks are ripping on you is that you failed to put a single piece of information about the item that you're selling into you ad. That, combined with the lack of a price, raises eyebrows. Just FYI. It's an...interesting...accessory. Good luck.

Awesome. As usual. Now you've got to keep the balls in the air lol.
