  1. You're also allowed 1 Atlantic >25" per person so the total NYS limits are 3- Chinooks, Cohos, Browns,(>15") or Steelhead(>21") in combination 2- Lakers 1- Atlantic(>25") __________ 6 fish max per person
  2. Skipper Thanks for all the detail, I'll have to give this a try. Probably won't be to pretty at first. You need to get together with Ruff Rider and do an instructional video. I'm sure it is not as complicated as it sounds. Roy
  3. Skipper How about sharing this method? Might be we can all learn something, it's always seemed funny to me that I use a bigger knife to filet a salmon than I do to butcher a cow. Thanks Roy
  4. Great first salmon! Definitely a lifetime memory, congratulations
  5. Was in the pack yesterday in front of the plant 200-250 fow. Green e-chip seemed hotter than the sd with green flies down 80-100'. SSW on 300 copper worked also. Fleas are out and heavy on the wires, even some on the 30# big game.
  6. Nick When you give this a try make sure the GoPro is running so that we can all share in your pain. If we could meet up I would give you one of the torpedo divers I won at last years Salmon Slam ! Roy
  7. Chris I've never had a problem bringing copper over my dipsy's as long as I leave it out down the chute long enough that it stabilizes but I'm too wimpy to try it with a 300 cu and a torpedo. Let's let Nick do it first, he'll try anything! It sounds like he has plenty of practice untangling lines:)
  8. It will be interesting to see what happens when you are using torpedo divers and try to deploy the rig over top of your dipsies with a otter boat. I've been hoping somebody would try this for me. Might work better with a TX44 so you could let it drop back behind the boat before engaging the reel?

  10. "Very nice mudflat. I just bought the same model about a month ago and just finished getting it outfitted. 5.7l EFI with duoprop and only 287 hours. The boat was stored for 6 years before being put back into commission last year. Ira Jones surveyed it both on land and a sea trial and he went over it with a fine tooth comb for me. Lol. He's worth every penny! I don't see any listing for one on boat trader. This model is hard to find. Where are you docked?" Right now I keep her on the trailer and launch anywhere from Catfish to Sodus. Boat and trailer weigh in at 7800lbs loaded and beam is 8'6" so I'm right at the limit for trailering without permits Probably would be cheaper to slip it somewhere than all the fuel I use towing. Here's the listing for the Penn Yan on boattrader, this one has been listed for awhile and they have come down in price but it's still a little salty, might be open to offers? http://www.boattrader.com/listing/2001-Penn-Yan-255-Intruder-101825807
  11. Check out : www.pennyanboats.com and www.walleye.com for used boats Here's a picture of my 255 Penn Yan Intruder, I think there's one listed on www.boattrader.com
  12. That time of year usually 5-6 miles, 150 fow, depending on the winds Approximate distances from Port Ontario/Selkirk: 100 fow = 4 miles 200 fow = 9 miles 300 fow = 10 miles Power plant = 10 miles I think you can find camping with a dock in the area, check Yogi Bear Jellystone Campground in Mexico.
  13. I agree with Tim 100%. We've been consuming salmon from Lake O for 30 years and last night we had some fresh filets and my wife commented they were the best she had ever had, melted in your mouth. She also commented how some people would have to pay $40/lb to get salmon that wasn't any where near as good. I hope she never calculates how much it cost us per lb.
  14. My guess would be that your plug contacts are corroded, probably on the female side, and the heat is building from the resistance the corrosion causes. Could be a problem inside the adapter also causing high resistance. If you had that bad of a short to ground in your wires to cause that much heat I would expect you to have blown a fuse by now.
  15. I'll second the Ultra Shield but I want a video of what happens to Tom when he tells Steph to quit whining....it works on horses
  16. Went 3 for 3, all kings, all down around 60' in 3-400 fow SSW on rigger took the two smaller one while this one hit a spinny/fly Bad news is we did find some fleas on our wires
  17. Rick With the new phone apps do you even need to use Twitter? Maybe a new forum for instant reports with a section for the "Captains" and another for the "pros" to keep them separate. You could even make the 'pro reports' only available to other pro members for a little more incentive to sign up and support this site. Roy
  18. LJ#1 w\std ring = Deeper Diver 107mm LJ#1 w\ mag ring = Deeper diver 124mm The mag diver's will have a steeper dive angle and will get a little deeper When running 2 divers on a side a lot of guys will run a mag set on 1 on the inside and a standard set on 3 on the outside to keep separation between them.
  19. The only thing I don't like about my 1116's are the fixed rod holders, they hold the rods too vertical imo. I upgraded mine with Traxtech rod holders. By the time you upgrade the rod holders on a 1116 you are almost up to the same cost as a 2116 HP which already has adjustable rod holders along with other improvements.
  20. Thanks Rick! Looks like you guys had a good day, keep it up tomorrow.
  21. Frank at Calumet Marine had a post on GLA on battery switches, look it over www.glanglerforum.com/forum/showthread.php?15890-Batteries-and-battery-swiches He also has the best price for the VSR switch that I could find and delivered it in 2 days.
  22. Try 315-871-6400, should work
  23. Copper is pretty forgiving, not like wire. If the kink isn't too severe you may be able to just straighten it out and smooth it off by pulling it across some smooth, round object. If it's a tight kink then cut it and fix it with either a spro swivel or back to back haywire twists.
