  1. 10" Drums and Backing Plates from single axle Venture trailer. Really good shape and worked fine when removed to convert to disc brakes. Prefer to sell locally in or near Rochester NY. Frequently in the 1000 Islands region, as well. 40$ Thanks for looking.
  2. A Gander Mtn Tackle Bag in really good shape with a potluck of contents. A bit dirty and the zippers could use some lube, but a really decent bag. $50 bo Also a Happy Troller Trolling Plate $40bo Prefer to sell locally in Rochester NY but could meet half way, depending on location. Also, frequent the 1000 Islands Region, if you're up that way. Thanks for reading.
  3. Pump the primer ball when it starts starving. If it helps, fuel pump or dirty carbs.
  4. It never should have stayed this long. My last purchase from them was my Xi5 for a ridiculous low price. Unfortunately during transport, it was stolen off their truck at the Watertown Store. Rob made it right and got me another but it took forever. It was also during the plague, so everything was in short supply. Prior to West Marine, we had Boat U.S. on Petten St and Rob was the manager, there. Much better location and always busy. WM bought them out and moved the employees up to E Ridge Rd. Made no sense!
  5. This place was never geared toward the pleasure boater, due to its location. There were a few there, but most wanted to be Braddocks and East, for the restaurants, bars, and beaches. That cut is a serious PITA for most boats, and they can't just start cutting and clearing all the over hanging trees on the shorelines. It would really suck to have to wait to put your gear up, till after you get through. The Parkway Bridge was tough because a lot of us ran outriggers back in the day. Now it just lìmits to the size of your boat. Throw in a good stiff N NE wind and that narrow exit to the lake can be a jaw breaker! There's a reason it closed and even a bigger reason it stayed closed. It's too bad because it's really a great location for the weekend warrio...If the price is right!
  6. 30 years ago that cut was bad. Cant imagine how bad it is now!!
  7. Couple motels in Port Ontario Rt 3 about 20 min past Oswego
  8. You should have no problem online. Iboats Crowley Marineengine.com Search part# on Amazon
  9. Definitely Pugs! Bob is a stand up guy.
  10. You will never see the numbers like you did in the ESLO days. For one, ESLO began as only 4 days, so those days were really busy.. Also, the gear needed was really basic. Todays gear has priced a lot of guys out of this type of fishing. Dick Schleyer the OG of ESLO promoted the heck out of it where LOC dont do a darn thing. That being said, I saw more boats off Rochester this year than for quite a while.
