  5. it needs a dredging for sure - i ruined a prop last summer going about 2 mph - hit a pile of rocks
  6. I just spoke with a DEC rep and he told me that the woodville lauch won't be open til April 1 (DEC website originally said it would be done around mid-January). When i asked him why it wasn't finished on time, he said - and i quote: "the cold weather has really set them back." WOW - i moved here from texas 8 years ago and it didn't take me that long to realize it's gets cold here in the winter. As someone who lives near hemlock, woodville is a lot closer than watkins or taughannock. I know the N ramp is open on Canandaigua, but last Feb i caught a lot of lakers in the south end and was hoping to replicate that. Does anyone do well in the N. end of Canandaigua this time of year? andre
  7. no problem Les - thanks for any info you can provide! andre
  8. i suspected that it would be frozen right now - i was more curious about the status of the construction. does anyone know about that? thanks, andre

  10. Has anyone been by the woodville launch recently? Do you know when we'll be able to launch there? thanks, andre
  11. jerktroller - thanks very much for the info HPORT - it never occurred to me that they WEREN"T making the ramp longer. If they do a construction project there and don't do that, it would blow my mind. On the other hand, i guess you never know.... best, andre
  12. Hi all, according to the DEC website the woodville launch closed November 19 (for construction) and will "remain closed for approximately two months." Has anyone been by there recently or know if they are on schedule? thanks, andre
  13. i was hoping to launch out of woodville later this week but drove past there today and it is under some kind of construction. does anyone know 1) what they're doing there and 2) when the ramp is supposed to be ready for use? thanks, andre
  14. i don't have a biomedical background, but i think i would have let that deer pass on by (i shoot only what i know i'll eat). It is likely perfectly safe to eat but nonetheless, i doubt i would have shot that freak! (i prefer my deer with 4 legs) dre
  15. I am interested in your downriggers. Please call me at 319 6570. thanks, andre
  16. Hi Pete, i feel for you man, and you are so right about how much there is to tend to in order to keep everything working well. I was at geneva thurs am. I launched in the dark and my buddy and i had a great few hours of jigging when a fellow jigger (who i don't know) drove up and said they're about to tow all the vehicles with trailers. So i head back pronto, move my vehicle and later heard that a tow truck had been called. WTF!!!! there were no signs that day; i parked where vehicles with trailers always pard; and i nearly got towed!!!! I'm thankful to whoever it was that warned me (I wish i had gotten his name; he was definitely a cool dude). i've enjoyed your many posts, Pete. best, andre
  17. i can "second" that Alec's jigs are EXCELLENT! andre
  18. Hello All, i don't fish lake O very often (i mostly fish the flx). I know the 2nd pic is of a king. Is the first one a coho? the spots are only on the top half of the tail (sorry i didn't get a good photo of the gums) thanks, andre
  19. Hi all, i was trolling the North end of canandaigua, which is new to me. riggers down about 80 and then i'm into a hump that's 20 feet down. Major &^$&*%$!!!! hassle. I decided i really want a sonar unit that has both the capacity to mark waypoints and shows topo maps of area lakes. i'm considering the Humminbird® 581 i Combo Sonar/GPS (on sale at cabelas for $280). I have heard mixed reviews about the Navionics® HotMaps™ Premium SD cards. I'm curious if any of you have that card, and if so, how detailed are the contours of fingerlakes? Also, does it have many of the ADK lakes included? I presume the Lake Erie and Ontario contours are accurate and detailed? any input on the Humminbird 581i would also be appreciated. thanks a bunch, andre
  20. i'm in cadadice. call me to set a time to see it 319 6570
  21. someone told me that this year's red cross derby has been cancelled. does anyone know about this? please say it ain't so andre
