  1. Any of you guys use this reel for leadcore?
  2. I'm a Lund guy, had Alumacraft, & Crestliner. looked seriously at the sport angler but settled on the Tyee Magnum. The sport craft has more room for finshing because all the compartments are open without doors but I settled on the Tyee because of how I wanted to mount the downriggers. However, if my ship came in I would I would get the Tyee 2075 what a sweet ride, the Baron is a bit bigger but I don't like the fish/sport model for fishing. As for price! Trying sitting down first.
  3. What a sad day, what a shock this is! So sorry about your loss. We have several conversations and Ben was so enthusiastic about the sport.
  4. Manley's on Rt 26 & Juneberry towards Vestal Center is carrying non ethanol!
  5. Much of our success has come off 3 & 4 color leadcore in 38' FOW so I'm guessing we were 15' off bottom. This seemed to work when working the bottom wasn't.
  6. Thanks to Andy for sharing the info, its a start so jigging will be on my agenda until the weeds & fleas leave. Thanks again Andy
  7. I'm aware of the law.......My post meant 3 to 5 people in the boat each day with each getting their limit!
  8. Oneida has been the best that I've seen in years. My most productive method is jointed perch plugs about 2.2 mph. You cant get hurt with south or east winds it's the N by NW that kicks in.
  9. My fishing partner had the same problem, it was corrected after he replaced the pump!
  10. Just spent the week there........The whole lake is hot. We ran jointed perch and limited out every day within 2 hours we had from 3 to 5 fishing each day. Everything seemed to work, lead core, riggers, and weighted lines. This is the best that I've seen this lake!!
  11. Congrads Rollie.............haven't been on Cayuga in quite a while because of the eel problem. Today we did shorts LLs & bows and several 6 to 8 pound lakers. The good news was that all the fish were clean without scars and it was pleasant to fish without fleas & dodging and weed mats........................I know it won't last but it was fun. Awesome LL congrads again!
  12. My gunnel is 10' wide but where the track is located it's reduced to 6" with 3/4" pressed board under the 6" this is where the plates are mounted. Your design must be different I don't have any flexing.
  13. I have a 2008 20' Tyee with big Jon riggers. I had 5" X 5" steel plates fabricated at a local metal shop and mounted them under the gunnel I believe the design as not changed. I use the forward riggers tipped up to use for planer boards (Otter boards) without any flex however I only run 10 lb weights when used as a downrigger.
  14. With what I've read the DEC will resolve the lamphrey issue in time. I try not to target Lakers unless I have to to catch fish, with that said I'm hoping the silver fishery on Cayuga will get better. So from what I read on this post the fish with scars are from Lamphreys that have dropped off to spawn? Is this what I'm hearing?
  15. We were out today boated a dozen or so LLs & Browns all had lamphrey scars but no eels were attached.
  16. I'm not a fan of running both motors off the same battery, my background is in the electric industry. All alternators do not charge the same so I never run both at once. My kicker & electronics are off one, while the main motor is off another so there isn't a conflict, I do have a perko switch between them that I can close if I have battery trouble and alternate between batteries. I know some disagree but the investment is big so I play it safe.
  17. The boat belongs to a friend in Binghamton. His name is Mike H 607-770-0078 C 607 761-1934 Motor is a 2012 less than 25 hours on it Ken

  19. They worked hard for me. I had trouble with a 175 Opti however the dealer cannot do anymore than the manufacturer will allow under warranty. The issue was under warranty so their hands were tied the problem got resolved after the factory rep got involved. I'm sticking with a local dealer, I simply to not care to haul my rig for hours to fix unless it's absolutely necessary!
  20. John, Any info on the T-Falls launch would be appreciated! Has the Parks cleared the ice chunks etc? When the next thaw hits there has to be more damage. thanks Ken
  21. A buddy's whose in-laws live in Skaneatles sent it. I've heard old timers say that Cayuga has froze over by T-Falls..........but I find it hard to believe there's been too many winters colder than this. I'm an avid winter fisherman and I've been twice this yeat!
  22. Sorry I didn't upload the first one
