  1. Maybe you switched the position of the sharks or you accidentally bent something on one of them. Another solution would be getting rid of the sharks (I hate them) and switch to torpedos
  2. So the DEC owned launch on Sandy Creek was closed due to high water. Is there anyone in the DEC structure who thought about, instead of closing the launch, just temporarily putting some boards on the submerged parts , thereby making the launch usable and relatively safe (as safe as it would be with lower water levels)? You see, the people who use this launch are taxpayers. In other words, the people who help pay for your salary. Who are all co-owners of this park. In short,your employers. So maybe instead of denying these people the use of their communal property, why don't you arrange a temporary solution so the owners of this launch can use their communal property? This message has been forwarder to the DEC by e-mail. I will publish the DEC reaction, if any , on this thread
  3. I am interested in buying, but I would like to know how many herring strips I get for $211 and how long they will last in the freezer

      Hello rolmops,

      We recommend that customers buy from the shops we have listed or from one that is nearby. However, if that's not possible, each pack contains six strips, and you receive 12 packs per cooler box along with coolant, plus shipping fees. Our primary role is as a product manufacturer and wholesale distributor. This is the retail pricing breakdown for online purchases. Which port do you fish from?

      Sincerely, 

      Walter Thompson

      I apologize for not answering your question about how long they can be stored in a freezer. They are vacuum sealed and should last for at least a year in the freezer, and I can say that with confidence. I plan to share some information related to your inquiry about freezing soon. I'll keep you updated when I do. I think you'll find the information quite interesting regarding this topic.

      Sincerely 

      Walter Thompson

      Rolmob,

      I've shared some extra details regarding the refrigeration and freezing of our Familiar Bite Herring Strips that you might find interesting.

       

      Familiar Bite Herring Strip pre-fishing advice. We suggest refrigerating our Premium cut-baits for up to 5 days prior to use. This process enhances the brine's effectiveness in firming the baits. For long-term storage, freeze the baits, and for short-term use, keep them refrigerated.

  4. Glad to hear that you enjoyed and came back in without any problems. I planned to go out as well , but seeing the weather report I got cold feet.
  5. This morning shortly before sunrise a boat was launched from the Sandy Creek public launch. So is it really closed or is it closed unless you know how to open the gate?
  6. Somebody in the DEC might just have read this thread.
  7. That is sweet. In that case , the work will probably get underway this fall when the water level will go down. In my dreams , I can see a channel wide enough for 2 boats to pass each other that is dug all the way to the parking lot where the launches can be situated. Maybe even a fence around the parking lot and a few cameras to help monitor and possibly identify hoodlums trying to break into vehicles.. If caught, those hoodlums should be sentenced to brushing the launches with a toothbrush. Ah, one can only dream.
  8. Given the liability issues , that is what may happen, but most people just want to launch or fish and the risk factor that is caused by having to walk six feet through 4 inch deep water really is not very different from walking over wet wood after it has rained.
  9. I just double checked some things. As it turns out, the Sandy Creek Launch is owned and operated by the DEC and it is on Park land. My apologies for barking up the wrong tree.
  10. Maybe the town of Hamlin chooses to spend its money on things that every resident needs more than investing in a ramp that in spite of it being less than great is still functional and maybe you should consider buying a pair of boots and concentrate on having a nice day instead of concentrate on things that are really not so important.
  11. Congrats to you guys for getting furry bundles of joy. I went through it twice in the past year and a half with Golden retriever pups. They are veritable bundles of joy and... well you know.. The second one I got did know how to ask to go out very early, he learned from his big sister. But he kept on having accidents or so I thought. It turned out that one of his kidneys was not connected to the bladder and because of that, he just was leaking all the time. I informed the breeder, who gave me my money back and let me keep the pup. $6000 and several visits to Cornell later everything was fixed and now I have two very sweet golden retrievers ripping my house apart and preventing me from going fishing early, because of having to walk these lovable monsters.
  12. I got on the water around nine and set up at 35 foot after having seen good marks at the bump. I circled it a few times and ended up with 3 cookie cutter browns on an 8 color leadcore. On the way farther out at 50 feet I got a skippie and then I picked up and went to 350. There I got 2 nice steelies at 40 foot down going back and circling, an other skippie and then a decent king, although he popped off just before netting him which is just as well as I was not planning on keeping him . All in all a nice day . Thanks to Whaler I went out there and Coyote was out there too. What I could not figure out is that the parking lot must have had a dozen trailers, but there were no more than three or four boats that I could see. Did everybody go even farther than 350 feet?
  13. What you just mentioned implies that this invasive flea has become part of the food pyramid within the lake and their presence may cause the food supply to increase, unless of course they have replaced a native species. So what eats them?
  14. Is there a logical reason why the east end of Lake Ontario seems to be loaded with these fleas while out of Sandy/Hamlin I still have not seen any?
  15. A few days ago the handheld remote control of my Garmin Reactor 40 Auto pilot went dead .It was registered at Garmin so I called them and the customer service person explained to me that they need a a receipt with date of purchase, which of course I had lost. Remembering that I had bought it from the GPS store I called them and within 5 minutes they emailed me the receipt . I called Garmin back and because I am electronically challenged they helped me taking a picture of the receipt and transferring it to them. Even though the warranty time had expired by almost 2 months they offered to replace the unit free of cost and paid for the mailing costs. I walked away feeling that between the GPS store and Garmin, I was very lucky to have chosen them because of their excellent customer care. Sometimes paying an extra 10 dollars to a reputable supplier, instead of picking the cheapest possible, pays off big time.
