Thanks for info guys. I am having a 300 mag built right now. Any good glass, with adjustable turrets will get you out a hell of a long ways. I'm using a huskemaw but leupold, night force and others all fit the bill. Great ammo and a gun that shoots sub moa at 200 yds is a great start. Then lots of practice I'm lucky to have a lot of shooting time under my belt. Its just hard in our area to find spots to shoot long range.

Hi folks, Anyone know of a good rifle range in NY or northern PA with a 500 yard plus range? Looking for a spot to shoot this summer out to 1000yds. To much development around my farm to shoot that far anymore. Thanks Sean

Severne is always open. This morning the south end launches on Seneca were all froze up still. The lake is low but creek is opening up so it should come up. Perch guys have been pounding severne. Sean

Rick I know your in with Cannon and I'm not here to start crap but don't tell my ass I made a false statement! I stated they had no glue on them. I'm not a dumb ass and I know what glue looks like. When I called company they said they are glued on and when I said they had no glue and I had just bought them they charged me. I use cannon riggers but is it good buisness to charge for a lost end cap on a new rod holder its first trip out? You know dam well if u called for a lost end cap they would just mail it out.

Got to love it! I had brand new dual rigger rod holders from cannon at $250 a shot. Plastic end caps fell off due to no glue put on them. Called customer service had to pay for a $4 dollar end cap and shipping on a brand new rod holder. What bull crap I pay for thousands of dollars in riggers and don't get them given to me each year like others, and have to pay for a part a week later! Now on the other hand I had a four year old rod holder break a weld from Great Lakes Planers (my fault) and Tony sends me a new one now that's customer service.

Any state boat launch on the lake after a tournament you could get a tractor trailer load of whole fish out of the dumpsters.

Trees are great for board rods I use them every trip. Great Lakes Planers only way to go.

I've grew up with hundreds of horse's, my dad was a black smith for thirty years and has broke and sold hundreds of them. I've see horses racked flat out in the sun and at night for hours sound asleep. As for shooting one that is pure stupidity.

I'm with you on this one plus pay out the a## My aunt had four guys who were deer hunting kill one of her black Angus cows a couple years ago. Guys loose their head and think they have to kill every deer that moves and that's what you get.

I asked them same thing last year was told no. That's why I run both. Fish hawk and sub troll up front sub troll in back. Nice having both Nick when you have to send one in for maintenance. Sean

Great thanks for all the info guys!

Like Jason posted above we run some serious boards off my boat and multiple wire divers. Some guys run less and do great and have more fun, but we got the gear and enjoy it. We put the auto pilot on a course and with both of us working we run three rods per person usually 12 to 21 rods out. As for your question if I'm running a 500 to 600 copper I'll run that off otters on the inside and run multiple lines off small church boards on the outside. Then usually two wire divers deep per side. Copper off one side core on the other. Then say you are pounding them on 200 copper will run four of them on one side and use musky floats to stretch out the spacing bend the inline board. I started 30 years ago with the first in lines I could find running 4 per side out of a row boat, my budy and I would row all day in that 12 ftr. I was ten and didn't know their was a rod limit:). For running multiple boards per side you need low drag backing, good calm seas and no weeds. You can't have crap dragging together. I only get to fish Ontario two or three times a year due to how busy we are down here on the finger lakes but its the same up north. Run what you can when you can till you figure out what they want. Lots of guys on here know a hell of a lot about boards don't be afraid to shoot a pm to any of them. Look at jason he was running in lines off snoopy poles in my pond before the ice hit:)

Any of you finger lakes guys know someone local who can work on a broken rod tip. Custom big money rod don't wanna mess it up myself. Thanks Sean

Just keep going Dawson!!! I have taught several hundred people to shoot and to shoot and survive in combat situations. Day or night its all the same, sight picture, stance, grip, breathing, and trigger control its all the same only difference is if someone is shooting back LOL. I have found most folks shoot better in the dark or low light situations they have less to focus on and groups tighten up big time. Just keep your head up at least your out doing it and not just reading it on a forum. Sean
