Always looking for more help with our pen-rearing project at Sodus Bay. Tom Frank owner of Capt. Jack's has done it the past few years, but is giving it up next year due to lack of support from those that make their living from the fishery. It is an on going battle every year to get helpers to commit to the project. L.O.C.B.A. has been supporting it for many, many years, along with local groups, Eagle scouts, and others. Our Pro-Am tournement raises money each year to continue the project. We are always looking for more on hands support. I have not heard of any takers for this coming spring. But that is no suprise. I send out nasty-grams every early spring looking for support. Seeing that L.O.C.B.A. has joined forces with the Genesse Charter Boat Association recently, I'm not sure of what may happen in the future. John Arney at Arneys Marina has given us space for the project for several years at no charge. We have two pens, and receive 50 thousand fingerlings each April, 25,000 per pen. Krenzer Marine has shown interest for next year,, but no final committment or approval. And just so you know, it all has to be approved by the D.E.C. as far as location, tempature, flow, and other factors. It is not an easy deal, believe me. That is why it is such a hassel every year.I hate to see this project fall by the wayside as our fishery at Sodus gets better every year, and I'm sure the pen-rearing project is a major factor. Let me know if you are interested and I'll point you in the right direction.Thanks. Dane

Thanks to all the teams, pro & am, that participated in the tournement at Sodus Point and made it another great success. Great weather (regardless of Nick's curse), more teams than last year, no major problems, and lots of prizes $$$ paid out. The new committee was on their A game and did a remarkable job. Hats off to Krenzer Marine, Tim, Julie, Dan and others, Capt. Jack's, Tom, Jeff, Brenda and the rest of the team, sponsers and donors,that make this another very successful and safe tournement. Here's to next year, bigger and better.

There is a form to be filled out for BFF and they are located at Capt. Jack's.
-
Nick, Hats off to you again for this fine tribute you and others show in honoring our veterns. May you have calm water, lots of fish and smiles from ear to ear..
-
Lucas, Rod is correct, BFF sign-up is at Capt. Jack's, $100. / $1000. a day sign-up is at Krenzer Marine. See Julie, $100. total for the five day event. Should be a fun time.
-
We can't determine the prize structure until we know the number of boats entered in each division etc..
-
East side/west side of the bay. So we can hook up observers, etc.
-
Call Tom @ 314-4199. He was on here a few days ago wanting to observe at our tournement.
-
Tom, We almost always need observers, mostly at the last minute. I'll keep your # handy and call you if and when needed. Thanks.
-
Tom is not going anywhere. He is an established businessman. He has just had enough. It does wear on you after awhile. Especially with very little help. And he doesn't even fish.
And to answer Capt. Rob, the water is usually rather low at Arney's Marina. We have had to use buckets; support the tubes from the truck on our shoulders to get the right angle; or whatever other way we could come up with. This year, due to lack of help, the pens are sitting on the bottom with hopes that the water will raise enough to get them to float before taking them out into the lake. Time will tell.
-
Tom Frank and a couple of others set them up and put them in last week.If you do not know Tom well, when he say's he will take care of something, and he gets a few extra minutes, boom, it gets done. We are going to miss him next year.
-
Sorry about that. 11:30 AM on Tuesday the 22nd of April. Thanks
-
Sodus pen fish will be arriving Tuesday April 22, 2014. The pens are located at Arney's Marina on Route 14 at the Bay. We could use some help loading the pens as they will be a distance from the stocking truck. Any help would be great. Stop by and meet Tom Frank from Capt. Jack's, he is overseeing the project again this year. It should not take more than an hour with enough help. Thanks.
-
Maybe we should not allow fishing in any of the creeks that empty into Lake Ontario also. And the thousands of fish that are taken in them. And this one extra in Naples supports Veterns. Come on. Really!!!!
-
Matt, Contact the tournement director of whichever tournement you would like to be at. Most of them have a list and give out the names to those that cannot find an observer. Another ides is just show up at the captain meetings the day before the tournements as there is ALWAYS some one needing one. Good luck & enjoy.
-
Hopefully the water will warm up by the first of April. The DEC shocked the creek this week and only had 8 fish from Rt 245 up past the town. Bring some of that Fla. sunshine up with you.Good luck.

And those of you that do not know, ( and don't get mad at me Mike), Webster Eye Care is a HUGH supporter of the Sodus Pro Am. along with other tournements along Lake Ontario. It's always nice to support those that support us. That's what keeps the tournements rolling.
Sodus Bay Net Pen Work Day- Need your help

Thanks for taking on the project this year Jim. And for your help in the past. For those that don't know, Jim is no newcomer to pen rearing. He has helped out at Sodus and several other ports along the lake for years. A true sportsman. This is a rain or shine event so dress accordingly. With a good turnout, we should be done in a couple of hours.
A special thanks to Tom Frank and his staff at Capt. Jack's Tavern for their help leading the project the past few years.
So please lend us a hand if you can on the 25th, Katlynn's Marine Warehouse lot is right accross from Krenzers boat storage lot on Margaretta Road. Don't just reap the harvest, help us produce it. Thanks
