  1. For any of you fellow GM truck owners that can’t stand your engine cutting from V8 to V4, and the late engine damage that will rear its head, there is a slick little aftermarket plug in device that will keep your engine in constant V8 mode. https://www.rangetechnology.com
  2. Query modislakeontario and you should get it

  4. After taking a close look at all my guides on my wire rods in good light and magnifying glasses, I was shocked at the deep grooves present. I have not lost any gear due to wire failure but it looked like it could easily could happen at any time. For most of the grooves in the guides I was able use a dremmel tool and a pointed stone attachment to smooth out most of the grooves but some of the inserts did not survive the deep cuts present and the vibration from the grinding. Looks like I am getting into rod repair.
  5. Sheeple have many forms. When those on this site post verbatim the lies promoted by Fox News, I would say there is cool-aid being consumed by both sides. People believe what they want to believe. Keep this site about fishing please.
  6. With north wind came pack ice into Olcott Harbor. With last weeks thaw, the black invaders came back. It won’t be long now boys!
  7. One of the Fuji inserts punched out of the first rod guide on my ugly stick wire dipsy rod. Does anyone have a recommendation on a replacement guide that will handle wire well?
  8. I think if you made the stretch artificials-only there would not be the mess on the banks.
  9. Anyone wanting a starter kit to start trolling would be well served to buy the lot.
  10. A nice strategic plan! I remember when the fence went up on the Oak. It was a sad day.
  11. I like seeing a weather radar loop that a cell phone can give in real time. Getting off the water when a storm cell pops up over the water in July can save your life. The answer with anything safety on the water is redundancy. More than one bilge pump, boat batteries, fire extinguishers etc etc. With that in mind, everyone needs both their cell and a VHF radio.
  12. Will this event be recorded?
  13. Yes and you can see the water isn’t open until you get to the brown of the Catt. The Catt mouth is open
  14. It’s going to be a quick warm up again. Very little ice on Erie.
  15. I didn’t recognize your boys at first because we normally see them holding a very large buck.
  16. Awesome! It is 19 degrees and blowing 30 mph here lol.
  17. Pete, can you come to our deer camp for story time around the fire?
  18. Has anyone tried Menhaden?
  19. Gunnel slap ‘em and send them down whole for other lampreys to see.
  20. You should not have gotten rid of the Kodiak Wobblers!
  21. Perhaps an idea for a new LOC division?
  22. Charleston is awesome. Just got back. Up your limit on your wife’s credit cards as there is much to buy and eat there. I stayed in Beaufort and Charleston. The fishing was dead around Beaufort but I did see a few guys fishing around Charleston. The water is cold so from I was told there are pockets way upstream around springs that hold Seatrout. The rest of the fishery moved into the ocean until water warms into the 60’s. If I was going to get a charter now, I would be looking for a guide targeting bull reds around the rock piers/ break walls at the mouth of the Atlantic.
  23. Beauties! No fishing for me. There is zero bait and zero fish inshore due to recent cold snap here in Beaufort. Weird to see zero boats out. Zero fishermen bank or pier fishing. The weather finally hit 60 degrees here today so hopefully I see some movement of fish up from the ocean. Funny that I am here in SC and I watched two fishing shows yesterday. One was a 411 episode that took place at Olcott this summer, and another was a Facts of Fishing episode that took place off the windmills off Buffalo on Lake Erie. Only proves how blessed we are.
  24. I am hearing about shortages in obtaining green label sized herring by bait collectors this summer on the Pacific side. Is anyone planning on making a batch for sale this year?
  25. Yes, I am a “soft water” fisherman, however, I still carry six-pack abs.
