Lil Jake

Luckyman, I'd might be interested in you rig. I'd like to see a picture of the cockpit and the fishing room on the back of the boat if pooible. I can be reached at [email protected]

BlueGhost, Sounds like you got all of your bad luck out of the way in one weekend. Things almost have to start looking up, wish you could have made the big fish deal but there's always next year. Hope your little girl is feeling better. Mark

Lil troller, when I got that trophy in the mail last week I somehow knew I'd be taking it home with me. Just a classic deal there bud. Good seeing you and your dad again and hopefully next year I can pass the "second sucks" cup onto someone else. See you back on Cayuga.

Don't sell that copper yet Mark. When we get into those hot dog days of summer you'll wish you had it. I run mine down the shute between 2 riggers and wire rods on each side with no problems. If you have big boards you can run two out to the sides and your wire rods under them with the riggers closing the middle of you spread. Just park it for a while but give it another shot. I call my 400 down the shute my "Ronco" rod, that guy that sell crap on tv all night long, just set it forget it, it will fire.

A last minute heads up boys, Jason is going to have to head to work early with the weaather so he is out but laker takers buddy chuck is a late addition. Hope everyone is ok with the storms and I look forward to seeing you all tomorrow, if your tenting it like me, bring some extra tent steaks and hold on.

First weeks results show Team Cayuga(TC) with a 6lb 3oz lead over Team Seneca(TS). TC-47lb-11oz----TS-41lb-3oz. Right out of the gate we have a first, and no "rule" addressing it, a tie for the for the weekly lunker at 10-2 between Jason and rshubuck. So I sat down with the national governing body of the cup (myself and a couple cold beers) and deceided the cash will push until the next cup weekend. This weeks lunker prize will be $20. FYI TC-Lil Jake,,Stoutner,,David,,Mower,,Mike S.,,rshubuck TS-LB-88,,Zebedee,,Chuck527,,Justin,,Jason,,Sean(?) See you guys at the National, good luck Mark

Justin, I'll get a list of team members out tomorrow with the results, swamped at work trying to pay for my fishing addiction.

That's a cool deal Chuck, every boat name should have a story behind, in your case you have a story and a reminder

Updated list at top of thread. Two guys from the "roll call" thread I'm not sure about, Ray K and Adma Byrd. Are you guys in? Numbers are getting up there 12 for sure and 2 maybe's, should be a goodtime. Mark

I'll keep my eyes peeled Andy.

I'll be on 68 all day, both days. If we all monitor 68 we will all have a "life line" if needed. I have always believed that if you a have a plan inplace you won't need it but if you don't cover your bases you get caught with your pants down. North end Saturday and out of Myers Sunday. Good luck to all this weekend and be safe. Mark

John, I'm fishing the north end but will be driving down sat and sunday afternoon's. See ya at Myers, good luck.

This weekend is a cup weekend. Post your results here by wed 5-25 and I'll have ressults out before heading to Sampson for week two. Good luck to all.......Please post pounds and ounces of each fish you wish to enter and I'll take it from there.

They update the restriction staus daily on the media release page of the Tomkins County sheriffs department site. Easy to find if you goggle it.

Thanks Zeb, but your not getting the big ones back....

Bring money to weigh-in at 7:00 pm at the launch area I'll collect and hand it over to the winner right then and be done with it. With everybody there at 7:00 we can all meet put some faces with the names on here and maybe drink a pop or two.

pay right at the launch during the weigh in. & o'clock friday evening. you can give it to the winner or I will give it to the winner, I'll be there by 6:45.

Correct......the biggest one fish takes it all....Friday only. Big Fish Friday is not a part of the National, It's just something to spice up the pre-fishing most us will be doing Friday anyway.

7:00pm Friday at the Sampson Park launch. Most of the guys that showed interest are camping there so I figure the winner can pick up the winnings then buy a round.

7:00pm weigh-in at the Sampson launch. $20 a boat So far those interested are on the list below. If you are in please respond to this thread and we will all pay up at the weigh in.

No cup this weekend bu it's on the next two during the B&B and the National.

They still had some left as of Tuesday morning Wayne. Lake O isn't going anywhere brother, this years derby should be a blast on and off the water.

Thanks for the update Scott, see ya next week at Myers.

According to the DEC site the no wake zone is still inplace out to 1000' form shore. Looks loke a great day Scott, thanks for the report. I'll be back on Cayuga this weekend, north end most likely, if we head south I'll give you a shout.
