Did`nt pick up any this past season on them(had a follow though...whoohooo).I toss ivanhos,champs(picked up a lot of18 for i think $30,now i just have to get them away from "Mr toothy"...haha),and gators.Picked up a musky on a yellow/redhead gator spoon at chautauqua.I personally like them and pretty much have atleast one close by all the time.I`ll throw more this year.

I`d have to say 90% troll.I got 1 fish casting on waneta(not including a 4lb bass on dbl cowgirl)and some follows.But again trolling was my bread and butter.Unlike zach most of mine came 3.5-4mph...a few over 4mph and a couple @5.

I`m gearing up this winter for more casting this year.

i`ll support our legislature taking a pay cut and or any raises!!!!!!!! They can also start with dumping the thought of going ahead with that speed rail.

Damn.....was hoping you missed that episode.Can never have enough.more lures,more options=more muskies!

i`d love to go but time is not on my side-have fun

Bob s

What do you think???

Lets flod the DEC with emails and phone calls to have special regulations implimented for waneta and lamoka to ..."tipups prohibited!!!!If they give a damn about this fishery they will include it next year.This should at the very least save a few skies.I`m still hearing fish being pulled in....whether by accident or not(reported that they are letting them go).There is no need for tipup use on this water.This regulation should help and it should be posted at the launch under the plexiglass.I as well as several of you donate our money to the chautauqua fish hatchery(a little each time adds up) to feed the musky fry which gets planted in waneta for our pleasure and to have large fish such as that taken out"illegally" ..well... it troubles me.Capt.Larry and others put much time and hard work into locating funds for this project and i`d like to see some changes in the regulations to protect this body of water.

" TIPUPS PROHIBITED "

I don`t have a problem getting on.I use a link off my desktop,quick and easy hookup.

Hello larry....hope ya had a nice holiday season.I will send my entry in on wednsday(1-27).I`ll be paying for 2 spots.

Bob S

Welcome lance and nice job last year.As zach noted these can be found on ebay,I frequent ebay due to my collecting of lures and see them in the musky section and sometimes antique lures.More than likely you`ll be bidding high unless you get lucky I picked up a quiver fish and a musky special(not using them!).Quiver fish is like a suick but also has a front diving lip along with the back-pretty cool baits.

Bob S

Hey zach...i was taken back when gus told about this.Had to get my 2cents in on the issue.If people out there realize we won`t hesitate to blow them in then they may be deterred from icing them out of season and or during open water b4 the season opener..Also hopefully they get the messege that the resources are limited for this fish and release them throughout the season.Now that the channel is open between waneta and lamoka hopefully we`ll start to see them spread out a bit more and not concentrate so much in waneta.I spoke to the dec about increasing the limit and they stated there is a healthy population down there therefore an increase was`nt warranted.

Zach...need any lures????give me a call...i`ve got a bunch of lures to get rid of!!

To those whom keep out of season....sooner or later you`ll get BUSTED!

I WILL SEE YOU ON THE WATER!!!! :yes:I`ll be at waneta!!

sol

Thank you larry,it has been a pleasure to have been around you and participate in your tournaments.I have learned a great deal over the last year and look forward to putting all that to use next season.After a long winter i`m sure you`ll be anxious to hit the water after you have rested and built back up your strength.

I hope that you and your family have a safe and happy holiday season.If able,I`ll see you at the nma party!!

Bob Solley

I prefer my shimano corvaulas on an 8`one piece gander im8..I also use an h20(2nd) and a catala(my 3rd rod).This keeps me in an affordable price range without taking out a loan .I will be buying another corvaulas for next year( very happy with it).

Good luck

Bob S

PFD?????

There was one other boat on the water and they were up north.

The woods have been kind to you this year zach-congrats

great fish..that one would be putting a smile on face as well-congrats.

Bob S

Thank you for your service larry,i layed to rest my father on monday also a marine(2nd force recon).Although a day late...happy birthday to all marines!!!!In my fathers memory...Semper Fi

Well we managed to get out there late.Paul suggested I-bay(was his favorite when piking was good there) `cause of time but i elected conesus.Nice afternoon and got results from the south end on the edge off the weed point.I got hit 2x throwing 6" straight wiley(missed both)and paul connected casting 6"jake in perch.Good to get out after a long tough week and get him a fish he so loved before heading south.I think it was the hat...gave it to him b4 heading out.He noted he`d never fished for skies...well i guess a trip up to chautauqua is in order!!!!(him and his are thinking `bout it)

we are heading for conesus!!!

could you give me a pic of front deck????
