RodBuster

Coast Guard launch is open, no dock though. I will be there in the AM....

Headed west and set up just past Bouder Pt. On the first pass around Boulder started the day with a triple, only to have one break off and another drop off. A few more hits near Boulder, then trolled east and got a few more. It was a little bumpy and the boards were getting tossed around so we trolled down the chute a few passes...nothing in there. Most fish where on bright colors, orange and chartruese F9 Rapalas and JR Thundersticks. Water was from 38 to 40.5 degrees with some areas having nice color. Would love to fish tomorrow, but have another obligation.

lumberman, thanks very much for the info......on my way in a half hour!!

Meant Sodus Caost Guard LAUNCH. Thanks

Looks like others have the same idea for tomorrow. Can't wait any longer.... Thanks for any info.

Can someone tell me if NK was there? What is their status? Posts on other categories of LOU have indicated issues with shipments etc. Just wanted to know as I use NKs often.

30 pound trilene big game main line and 15 pound seaguar for early season kings, and switch to 20 pound seaguar for summer/fall kings. Vanish is no good. Like Scott B said, how do they sell any of it?

Laketrout, I'll take the afternoon shift.....it warms up a bit. That is the primary reason we have been going miiday. In the summer we go early. Yes there are plenty of fish, and we uusally dont keep any....although yesterday five went to the smoker..... The fish do move around....I have been there about 7 times since the weekend before christmas, and they are somewhere different everytime.

Funny, because we have experienced our best action after noon. Yesterday they were active but 1 pm to 3 PM was best...

I can't speak for the north end but the south end is wide open. Water temp yesterfday was 39.6, so i assume north end may be a little colder, but not much. No other boats on the lake yesterday.

None whatsover. Once they are set to the correct tension they dont false release and they are consistent. I run 14 pound trilene XT. One thing to know is the lines must be all the same diameter, because the tension is based on the diameter of the line. If you have all different weight lines it will be a problem. A philips screwdriver is required to change the tension and it would be very inconvneient to change tensions while fishing. One other thing I do is epoxy the slot (they are designed to snap over the ski line one at a time) closed. I had some occasions when the fishing line would get into the slot when deployed.

Try the clippers. My experience with any type of relaese that "pinches" the line they will sometimes just allow the line to mov e through the release, rather than pull out of the release. Also releases that have a high profile will eventiully get caught up on your other lines when they are dangling after releasing. I have the clippers threaded onto the planer board line and then I have the retriever clip below the unused releases. I have been running planer board for over 25 years and In my opinion the clippers are superior to all others.

The internet is a VERY powerful tool. It would be wise to update your website. People see the latest catalog is 2010, and combined with the rumours it is easy to see why is perpetuates.

SHOW HAS BEEN CANCELLED!

Bass Pro Shops had previousely (before the weapons restrictions were announced) withdrawn because of some "parking issues". That is what i read on another site.

You have a PM

I was one out there. Best was right down the middle of the lake, diretly in front of the canal. We got lots of landlocks and one rainbow. small fish, we threw all but one back. We were getting all our hits on the inside rods on the boards, so we ran a flatline and it worked well too. Best colors were blue and hot steel Rapalas. In fact we had no hits on any other colors. Also had some bites on the riggers from 20 down to 60. One was a DW crazy **** slim and the other was a spook. Ran a fixed cheater 5 ft above and had one bite on that on a dirty white boy.We had a dipsey out also but had no success on it.

I posted on September 24th,so it was not last weekend.....Based more on the lack of any other news rather than analysis of the photo it is likely not a legitimate catch.

I received this via email. Allegedly caught Saturday in Oneida. I was told it was 71 inches long. Anyone else hear about this?

Congratulations to the buyer (AKA TY-1-ON) and the seller. Only problem is now i lost my fishing partner.....he had too much fun on my boat so had to go and buy his own. Now I want to become his 2nd mate. (Skyn 60 is first mate)
