  1. Guess depends on what your looking to do with it. The regular 300 win mag will be a lot cheaper to keep ammo in. I have a 300 mag that I reload Berger VLD handloads for, my brother in-law reloads Berger's for a 300 ultra mag he is spending alot more per round. As for your original question it will kill anything that walks as far as you can shoot it, but so will alot of smaller more economical rounds. If I was going to set up a long range gun it wouldn't be a short action. Sean

  2. Go for a combined species charter out of homer for halibut, snapper (red eyes), sea bass (rockfish) and silvers. Depending on the timing long cod might be open too. I fished out of resurrection bay at Seward but the fishing in homier is supposedly even better for big halibut. Just book a day with a charter out there. Best fishing trip of my life hands down.

    Good advise!! Bob's trophy Charters out of Homer. July 1st ling cod opens up. Do the killer combo Halibut, Rockfish, ling cod. Awesome trip

  3. I spent the bucks a couple years ago and added down scan and side imaging to my system. Was it worth it probably not is it cool to see my divers going out and bait on the side of the boat at times yup. LOL. Now lots of units are coming with it so why not have it. As for using the sonar like stated above get out and dive into it. You will find stuff you never knew you had on it. I adjust it all day long depending on water temp, clarity, and depth. Best thing you can do is get a good transducer I upgraded mine and it made a big difference. Sean

  4. Apparently we don't need more laws just enforce the ones all read on the books. But I guess that would mean the state boys would have to get out and earn there pay.

    So I guess they don't work? The one or maybe two that they have per County have more than they can handle.

  5. oooooooooo boy here we go

    Exactly!! LOL. No one was bashing stream Fisherman. The guys that line up in one inch of water and stand over a trout are not catching that fish legally. Now could I hook that fish in the mouth sure I could. If you have enough water where you can do it right go ahead have fun that's what it's all about. I grew up on the creek and have thousands of hours of stream fishing under my belt. I've seen guys clean out holes of over 60 fish and not one was caught legally or released. But the guy on the lake dragging lines is doing more damage, give me a break. I had a one BOW limit per guy on my boat years before it ever started. If anyone can't see that fish in two inches of water are more vulnerable than they are in 200ft your blind. Sean

  6. Dang Les how long was that first bamboo pole with the hook you carved from stone? LOL. Good points made! Most guys on here can have a discussion without calling anyone out. It's nice to see and read. No doubt many factors influence the lake and will till the end of time. I've seen first hand only weeks ago thousands of gallons of liquid slurry, spread on frozen farm fields get washed into the lake. Had over an acre of Creek bed filled with foam where the run off was.

  7. Hi guys, Back in the day I used to go up to Oswego and troll for eyes at night after the May opener. Haven't done it in years how has the fishery been, and is it worth the trip anymore? I know some nights it was a rodeo with all the boats with no lights. One of those things I'd like the kids to see once. Thanks Sean

  8. Matt, its even more money going out of Jersey or Maryland, depending where exactly your going the canyons are 70 miles out. Its over a two hour boat ride..

    Got to go last year , we caught a couple small yellowfin. Few years back out of Maryland we put 14 yellowfins in the box, biggest was about 90lbs

    I dont have money, im just fortunate to have friends in the right places to do that kinda trip

    Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G730A using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Your right on there! I used to like to get a couple guys and go do an overnight tuna trip out of NJ. Called to set one up this last season and they were all in the 4k to 5k range. That ended that plan LOL
