  1. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  2. The shipping lanes are sometimes very hot. Nice catch. You're right. IF the wind cooperates. That's a long run and a seaworthy boat is a must. Have surfed back from there on some nasty waves Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  3. When were the fish caught ? Been fishing east end since the late 70's and it's been my experience that the major salmon staging around Henderson doesn't occur till mid August Lake trout ( yuck) are always available if you care to target them Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  4. You have to fish where the fish are. This time of year it's the west end. They start migrating eastward in late July. Except for the wall in the shipping lanes ( long run) the Henderson area won't see numbers of salmon till mid August Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  5. I have used the 7 foot 2 piece bwd ugly sticks for several years. Tried one 7 footer about 10 years ago. Now I own 6. Love the shorter rod. And they handle big kings just fine Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  6. Still under water
  7. I have posted my recipe on this forum before , but here goes . I grill my lake trout on a cedar plank . When the fish turns flakey I remove from the grill and throw the laker away and eat the plank
  8. Welcome to NOAA. I always add a foot or two to their wave predictions spent a lot of mornings eating breakfast instead of fishing when they predict 1 to 3. And I agree with the post that fishing sucks when it's rough. Hard to maintain a course and the lures are acting all crazy at the ball. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  9. Maybe it would make the lake trout edible Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  10. The only product that I have found that works against these things is Buggspray. You can find it on eBay and amazon. Be sure to order the biting fly formula. I have used it for several years Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  11. I spent much time going back and forth with the DEC in Albany. I have an email from them stating that ANY baitfish preserved by brining can be used in NY waters. Their problem was with bait that was only preserved by freezing Which does not kill VHS virus Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  12. Any fish that is brined doesn't have to be tested. Only if frozen only like Rhys Davis Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  13. Can they be filleted to make bait strips ?
  14. The dreaded June doldrums Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  15. Here's another thought. There is a key on the impeller. It may be sheared. Pumps water at idle. But impeller slips at higher rpm Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  16. The flapper valve is in the exhaust tube to keep water from entering the engine in following seas if you have good exhaust flow. The valve is not the issue. Is there any contamination in your exhaust water ? Catch some and look at it Also is your cooling system open or closed ? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  17. Must be totally different down there. Winds here steady 15 with much higher gusts. Wind like that on the bay and you have easy 6 footers Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  18. The way the wind is blowing in Watertown , I doubt anyone is fishing Mexico Bay today .
  19. Not if it's not blown to the crankcase. They can. blow between exhaust and water jacket. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  20. May have a blown head gasket. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  21. This is a sporting website , not a police blotter. And it is not personal in the context you infer. It IS personal in that I condemn his crime against the sport of wildfowling He gives us all a black eye. If you think for one second that PETA fund for animals and every other anti hunting/fishing organization in the world isn't all over stories like these you are sadly mistaken. We need to condemn these actions or be seen as like minded criminals Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  22. Saiff absolutely deserves the wrath of this site and every law abiding sportsman in the US. He has betrayed his honor and deserves any and all discipline that the federal and state courts deem appropriate. We , as sportspeople , need to send a message that this is unacceptable behavior. Boycott his sponsors and his business Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  23. I believe PBS pulled his shows cabin country and rod and reel. At least in the Watertown area Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  24. The Saiff "fleet " have been running rough shod over the eastern end of Lake O for years. I've had his boats start setting up within feet of my rig in the past. And then get on the radio and tell his other boats I am crowding him. The best answer to this is boycott his charter business and get the word out to others Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
