Lets hope common sense prevails and the few stocking outside the Salmon River go to ports with tribs that receive a decent run of fish ie. Niagara, Oak Orchard, Genesee, Oswego, Sandy and South Sandy, Black etc. and not to ports such as Wilson with no decent trib. I am pretty sure they can treat eggs from the West Coast to make them disease free. Otherwise, three years from now.....fishing is going to suck. I can't imagine decent natural reproduction took place this year esp. with warm temps and low water in all streams. Heck, the Niagara was 70 degrees during the first week in September. No fry is going to live in that soup.

Maybe we can pressure the DEC to step up and put some of our license dollars to work and purchase eggs to cover the shortfall from Michigan or west coast stocks?

Craaaaaaaaaaaap!!!!!

They were giving those style out for free at the ELSO weight stations.

My wish list would include... 1) Moor subtroll.....I almost have enough Cabela's visa points 2) Get the balls to ignore the "preferred water temp" readings and put more baits in the "ice" water where those lone wolf mature kings patrol. 3) A really hot bikini wearing observer for the Pro/Ams. 4) Two copper set ups 5) For Cannon to go back to the long, heavy duty booms and aluminum bases of yesteryear. 6) For everyone to release small Chinooks so they have a chance to grow

Another nice usage of bing-cha-cha-bing-bing music!

If copper is so heavy....do you think an otter boat could carry 600' of copper wire?

Do you have to let all the copper length out and put the backing in a release or can you use a roller-type release and clip the release directly on the copper similar to what is done with steel and outriggers?

Yep Larry....a Guinea Pig with a Marlboro hanging out of it's mouth!

You can run one dipsy off each side...and a deep six down the chute without tangle issues. The deep six has a steep dive curve, therefore, running in front and below the dipsys. No problem with tangles. You can hit 80' depth with wire or braid with them also.

I would have to say this year I ran similar to fishtales. Lots of spoons in the spring....including behind flashers, mostly because it was so successful and I could not get flys to go. By the end of August, it was spin doctors and flies almost exclusively.

Ok, lets say Kings

I was wondering what percentage of everyone's lines in the water have spoons? What percentage have a flasher/combo? If a flasher bite is happening, do you pull all the spoons out of the water?
