    Lucky13, I'm going by the FACT that my gunwale was at least 6" above my dock on Aug 2nd, 2018, and now my gunwale is almost even with the height of the dock. You can talk all those scientific numbers until you are blue in the face, but I'm going by what I see. I'm not blaming Plan 2014 or the IJC, I was merely referring to the continuously lower lake levels this year. My opinion about the cause is that we had a drought that was worse than what's being reported. We've also had a hot summer, and it seems like there is more water evaporating than what is being replaced by rain. That's my non-scientific observation. Zebra mussels are reportedly drinking and storing more water, and so are the gobies, in a coordinated effort to deprive Lake Ontario fishermen of better access to the lake. All of the lake's invasive species are being controlled by electric magnetic pulses from Chinese and Russian satellites. It's a major top secret conspiracy that (oh crap) I just blew the cover on... What just happened...? Must be those EMP satellites

    Even with all the rain we've had this month, the top of my gunwale is almost level with the top of my dock. It looks like the lake dropped 4" just in the month of August. The water in my Creek hasn't flowed in nearly 3 months. There is very little standing water in the deepest parts. And another heat advisory yesterday and today (Jefferson County, among other counties). We need rain...

    Bump for a fellow Sabre owner.

    A friendly bump for a nice boat.

    I have the 23ft version of this boat. They trailer easily and they are great fishing boats. You can't beat a welded aluminum hull. No rivets, no leaks. I love my Sabre enough to say that it's the last boat I'll ever have to buy. Good luck with the sale!

    I use Lake Master NE for Lake Ontario.

    Looks great, congrats on a fantastic restoration!

    Laws only AFFECT law abiding citizens. If more laws were the answer we wouldn't have illegal drugs on our streets. Gun grabbing politicians and their supporters don't need any more leverage against law abiding gun owners than they already have. No amount or degree of laws will never disarm the criminals.

    And use heat shrink connectors.

    12ga should work, but if you feel the need to use 10ga wire, I bought my 10ga wire at Tractor Supply in Watertown for my Cannon Mag 5ST's.

    It's located SSW of the Stoney lighthouse, south of the trench. It's a pretty big feature that shows on most map software/cards.

    I plan on going out Saturday, but I work every Sunday.

    I've only seen that model in pictures but they look like nice boats.

    I feel the same way about taking people fishing. What kind of boat do you have?

    2 inches of rain doesn't seem like enough rain to cause that kind of spill. Maybe the rain is being blamed to ease tensions in the area...?

    You might get somewhere by making a visit to the Vet Center in Watertown. Nice looking fish!

    Congrats on a nice rig!
  18. Todd in NY
    Yep, my down speed and temp kept changing Saturday too. Thanks.

    What temperatures were you finding between 75 & 90 ft on your probe?

    I like to switch my HDS from the Insight maps to the Navionics card when I'm fishing a steep wall or other structure, and the Navionics card shows the depth in numbers, but not contours. Switch back to the Insight maps and my depth contours show up again. I'm only referring to the Navionics Regions card, maybe the higher end Platinum card shows depth contours better, but I've never used any other Navionics card. I'll also add that I'm talking about deeper water (over 70ft), not shallow water.

    I don't fish for Pike, so I can't help you there. Henchens marina in Henderson Harbor has a big selection of bait. It's the only bait shop I've used between Henderson and Sackets, but there are probably more that I'm not aware of.

    I use Lake Master Northeast version 1 in my Humminbird 1198c SI and the Lowrance Insight that came installed in my Lowrance HDS 8 GEN 2 Non-Touch unit. I have the Navionics Regions (East) map card in my HDS 8, but the Insight software shows much better depth contours than my Navionics card, and the Vanionics card is a year old, and updated last month. After using both units side by side, I prefer the Lake Master charts for Lake Ontario.
