  1. My plates were Barbershop, green dots on both sides-white plate not chrome and green dots with stripe on back. Flies were Atomic  green glow hammer,Atomic sheaded glow hammer and horse fly sea weed I trolled northeast to with down-speed of 1.8 to 2. Most of my strikes were going toward sw Many boats went west, including 2 of my friend who did not a good day.

     

    Plates were pro-troll e-chip I have not had much luck on spin doctors(spinnies)

     

    Had good temp at 115, but had many marks in the 90-100 range, plus kept seeing bait from 80-110 Fish came in the 90-105 range except the first 2 which came at 115-120

     

     

    Hope this helps

  2. Was  on Ontario yesterday in the Oswego area. Quite a few times times heard boats on the radio asking other boats to move away due to fish on or the other boat was about to run over lines(copper). Seemed to me more crazies were on the water than normal

     

  3. My Panther Model 35 electric trim and tilt is not working. The unit will not move up or down.   I use it to run my 9.9 kicker  Does anyone have any suggestions and where could I take it in the Syracuse NY area?

     

    Thanks for your help

  4. Much better in the spring. today we got 4 in very windy conditions using lead core and riggers. We launched at Marion Manor routes 31 and 13 on east end of lake. We were in channel 34-37 feet from bouy 111-113. Most fish seemed near bottom and hit 2 inch silver and black.

    Others have had success with perch color

    Dipies should work Troll at 1.8 mph

  5. All three in the boat limited. Caught over 15 in 3 hours, nothing smaller than 20. One of the best openers. D

    Did not go today due to wind

  6. Go from the East end. I launch from Marion Manor, intersection routes 13 and 31, very early before sun rises. Try fish creek reef, messengers reef North Shore, etc in 24-32 feet Jigs tipped with nightcrawlers. If you have a radio, keep it on as there is alot of chatter. My group have been limiting each time out.

  7. Ask them how much ethanol is in the gas. I used to fuel my old boat, 1987 merc alpha 1 130hp at the Sav-on near Marion Manor with no problems. With my new boat, 150hp evinrude, dealer told me to stay away from Fastrac due to ethanol, which is 10%. I have fueled my new boat at the San-on with no issues.

    Gas stations are suppose to indicate on the pump how much ethanol is in the gas, but can't tell you if the Oneida Indians stations show this information.

  8. The new antenna is working with both new cable and the existing cable. Will not prtmamently mount the antenna and the cable yet though.

    Have found there is some type of electrical charge on the boat. The dealer thinks it is static electric, but it cause quite a shock, especially when I am puting on the cover on and off. The cover could be enhancing the charge and making it more apparent.The dealer could actually feel this charge on the gunwale today, and is trying to figure out the source. You could see the hair on the dealers arm moving when he held it near the gunril. And one of the mechanics said he could feel the charge by holding his hand near the side of the boat. At this point, they are thinking about installation an addiional ground, especially for the hard top and plan on calling Lowrance.

    This electrical charge may be the reason why 2 antennas stopped working. It will be interesting to find out what has happened, especially since the boat is less than 1 year old.
