What Gambler said....Seaguar not Vanish. I am amazed that they sell any of that stuff..... Put a small swivel and enough leader so it just clears the tip. That way you can attach the lure to your reel frame and tighten the line up for storage.

Redneck Yacht, That's an unusual but neat rig. You don't see many like that around here. What size is the big motor on the back? Is the owner from here or is he from LI?

jennings, No rainbows, all LL salmon and one laker

The guys on my boat were talking about that duck boat too. That thing is enormous. It was classic when they came to the dock, the chocolate lab with a camo vest on was standing proud in the bow of the boat.

We arrived at Seneca at about 1 30 PM, since we had fished Lake Ontario early in the AM (See South Shore Sodus report thread for that story.) The mudline at the south end was very productive, with all fish coming on sticks off planer boards. I didn't keep track but at least 25 hits in about 3 1/2 hours. I don't fish Seneca that often but I may have to give it another try. Sounds like "Hooked Up" had a good day also. He must have got off the water before we arrived. The only other boat around was a duck boat coming to the launch as we arrived. he had done well also he said.

Set up and immediately had a board flip resulting in a broken ski line and loss of about 20 releases. Headed over to bolder pt to try to get out of the waves. We put out one board and immediately had a double. Had a few other hits but it was too hard to keep everything under control. We headed in after about 1.5 hours to redo the planer board line and put new releases on the line, hoping for it to lay down. No such luck. The water color was good with pockets of clody water and a temp about 40 degrees. I was sorry to leave as i know we could have had a good day with the right conditions. Stopped at Seneca on the way home and had a banner afternoon on the edge of the mudline on the south end, ====================

Thanks for the info Time out. i appreciate it.

If someone drives by the launch please give me a report. Is the bay frozen up to the launch or could i sneak out? Its almost time...maybe one day next week..... Thank you in advance.

I use a small swivel about 7' up like most replies indicated. Two things this does: 1. If a piece of grass or a small piece of debris hits your line it will run down to the swivel and it might catch there, allowing your stick to run properly. 2. It prevents twist if your line gets hung up on the hooks. A snap swivel at the lure won't prevent this.

OK I went back to the thread and the advertisments changed! I have never paid attention to the ads before.....must be they change???? Or am I losing it? But the add was for training to be a wind turbine technician.

I just watched the video. Very interesting. Even more interesting are the advertisements within the thread. How did that happen?????

Gill T, Those are nice colors. I'll have to get a few of those to try. Wont be long now.......

Gill T, What do you mean by UV? I looked at their web and didn't see that color. Thanks

Compare the two. I like the action of the F9 better and I use them much more often than the JR. But the Rapalas are twice the cost and are far less durable. I'm wondetring about using the JR more often...............

Looking for a Penn Fathommaster for parts. What I really need is the circuit board for the autostop feature. Thought maybe someon had an old beater laying around.

Thanks for the reply. We did make it up but had motor problems. We didn't get out much Saturday and Sunday we got a few but it was slow. Sounds like from those we talked with Saturday was the better day.

I would appreciate any info on the condition of the river. I am heading up for the weekend unless it is full of ice flow. Thanks very much.

Unfortunately, the second fisherman rescued has lost his life as the result of the accident. He was 52 years old from Horseheads NY. http://www.syracuse.com/news/index.ssf/ ... m_las.html Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family

Interesting reading about boat control on the whirlpools. i have a question that maybe someone can answer. I fish there a handful of times ever year. I see sea gulls sitting on the water in the whirlpools all the time. My question is how can it pull a floating object the size of a boat down but those gulls sit there without a care in the world? Always been curious about that......

Pelino, Glad to (Almost) be of assistance. What was wrong that day anyway????

Fishing Report Your Name / Boat Name: RodBuster fishing on the Stinger ============== TRIP OVERVIEW ============== Date(s): 9/19 Time on Water: 6-2 Weather/Temp: Wind Speed/Direction: Waves: < 1' Surface Temp: Location: LAT/LONG (GPS Cords): =============== FISHING RESULTS =============== Total Hits: 20 ish Total Boated: 15 ish Species Breakdown: Small Kings, Coho Steelhead Hot Lure: Trolling Speed: Down Speed: Boat Depth: Lure Depth: ==================== SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS Fished the wall first thing along with at least 20 other boats. Only saw one smaller fish caught. Moved to the 28 line after two passes. Trolled north in search mode. At the 30 line we started getting hits. Riggers 46 to 75. Leadcore 4 oz with 15 passes after weight at the water. Caught alot of nice steelies. A few small kings and a couple of small cohos. Only a few other boats out there. Fished 31 to 32.5 line. Good action. All fish on spoons. Talked to Bag Lady back at camp and he said they caught two matures inside but nothing right at the wall. If you want quantity this week head for the 30 line. Both Stinger and I pulled our boats home. SEASON OVER. ====================

I was about to post this picture of my 16 year old and ask why this looked like a mature. This must be one of those fish you talked about. It was two weeks ago.

Skyn get to wok!

Coast Guard launch is not bad. it is shallow as cigs said. Just keep your motor trimmed up until you get past the end of the Coast Guard's dock.

You guys from Watkins area.....how about that Sylvan Cuddy that sits on 414 just below Beaver Dams! It has been sitting there for as long as i have been fishing Lake Ontario, proably 20 yrs plus. It never moved. Now it is reduced to a pile of junk.
