UNREEL

I wasn’t going to pull for either team until reading your post Mike. Go Bucs!!

Not to mention 30 miles offshore in a gale.

Never thought about changing the reel handle location on my high speed Convectors. Gonna give it a try on my wire 30DS reels and see if there’s a noticeable difference. Thanks for the tip

Browns at Bills for the AFC would actually make me forget this Covid for a day. Go Browns!!!

My bad

I’m very happy with their hot Italian sausage and snack sticks. That cracker bologna sounds good for next time

Are you happy with your Wilsons order? I’m thinking of bringing them some more and trying something different.

What Gator was describing was with a short 10-12ft piece of mono tied to the wire, when you reel everything in all the wire ends up on the reel with the mono in the eyelets on the rod. This eliminates the inevitable and dreaded curly Q’s in the wire

International Lake Ontario-St. Lawrence River Board HOME WHO WE ARE WATERSHED LIBRARY NEWS & EVENTS The International Lake Ontario- St. Lawrence River Board to Implement Strategy to Deviate from Plan 2014 this Winter FacebookTwitterLinkedIn Date December 11, 2020 The International Joint Commission (IJC) has approved the Board’s request for authority to deviate from Plan 2014, and as conditions permit, outflows from the Moses-Saunders dam on the St. Lawrence River can be increased to exceed Plan 2014 flows. The risk of high water on Lake Ontario in 2021 is moderate due to persistent high-water levels on Lake Erie and the upper Great Lakes. This will cause inflows to Lake Ontario from Lake Erie to remain high over the coming winter months. The main driver of a high-water event in the Lake Ontario basin will depend on seasonal factors such as precipitation and snowpack runoff. Since June, Lake Ontario levels have steadily declined to just above the seasonal long-term average. Levels remain well below those that would automatically grant the Board the authority to deviate from Plan 2014 outflows. The Board and IJC recognize the continued threats posed by high water supplies into the system and the risk of another high-water event in 2021. The Board will implement a deviation strategy to take advantage of opportunities that may arise through the winter. The IJC has granted this authority under Condition J of its Orders of Approval, which allows for the testing of some regulatory deviation strategies from Plan flows. This authority will begin on 1 January 2021 and continue through the end of February. This regulatory strategy will be reassessed in February and could be revised with a request for further deviation authority from the IJC should conditions warrant. During this period flow limits are expected to pertain to low Lake St Lawrence levels, municipal water intakes and river ice formation. All deviation strategies, regardless of magnitude of impact, implemented by the Board in this time frame are intended to cumulatively reduce the risk of high-water impacts and balance the interests of other groups throughout the system. There remains considerable uncertainty in the weather and water supply conditions between now and next spring. These natural, uncontrolled hydrologic factors are the primary driver of water level fluctuations on Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River. If basin conditions are extremely wet, and similar to those observed in 2017 and 2019, no deviation strategy will prevent water levels that can cause flooding and damage shoreline properties. Providing those types of benefits are beyond the reach of water regulation and are more reliably addressed through coastal resilience and planning. Information on hydrologic conditions, water levels and outflows, including graphics and photos, are available on the Board’s website and posted to the Board’s Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/InternationalLakeOntarioStLawrenceRiverBoard (English), and more detailed information is available on its website at https://www.ijc.org/en/loslrb.

Try the LOCBA to book a charter. Lake Ontario Charter Boat Association. Tried to copy/paste a link but not smart enough.

Can’t say thank you enough Mike. This LOU community is a great group.

Thanks Frogger. I’ll get back to you. Price?

Looking for a 15 or 16lb river anchor or fluke anchor. Lost one today duck hunting PM if you got one laying around rusting Rochester NY area

Got a new I-Pad in May. I of course got the lights but no sound. That’s more than half the fun.

Good idea about the possible frozen impeller Frogger. I gotta pass that on to my buddy who hunts divers in the second duck season
