  1. Accudepth 47B and 57B Plus line counter reels loaded with 20 lb Monofilament and fluorocarbon leaders on 8'6" Okuma Convector GL Downrigger rods. $225 for the pair located in Seneca Falls
  2. Accudepth 47B Plus line counter reel spooled with 30 lb wire on a 10 foot Okuma Blue Diamond Wire Line Special MH rod with Twilly Tip. $125 located in Seneca Falls
  3. Over the years I've found using the Cayuga inlet buoy water level is a reliable guide. If at 380 or less depending on the boat, Deans can be pretty tough. The flip side is when under 381, my 24 foot Wellcraft fits under the bridge at Taughannock.
  4. Do you think colors on leadcore are a deterrent to the fish, especially if a long flouro leader?
  5. Appreciate all of your preferences but would like to know if there is any science behind the favorite choices. Any proof that the Stealthcore colors of black and red provide more stealth or the micro core thinner diameter does the same? Or does it really matter what brand used if the flouro leader provides 40 feet of stealth. I'm really wondering if that's the case........
  6. In need of some.leadcore line replacement so asking for thoughts on different brands, sizes. Been using Suffix 27lb since starting with cores and no real complaints. Does their 832 Advanced have advantages? Are other brands all about the same or do certain ones really provide more stealth and if so, does it really matter if running a 40-50 foot leader. Appreciate any dialogue offered.
  7. Sounds like a nice day on the water. Fishing on a weekday.......a reason to look forward to retirement!
  8. Agreed. Looking like a domestic dog to me. How far from civilization is that camera?
  9. Have had the unit 3 years now and use it pretty steadily. No issues until a couple months ago had to replace the seal gasket but a simple swap out. Don't know cost as a few years ago so check their site. Obviously avoid the lesser unit that Gator has issues with.
  10. Congratulations on a great hunt. Be interesting to know if a big difference in flavor of those Texas deer knowing their diet is so different from what the Western/Fingerlakes whitetails eat.
  11. Really enjoyed the video! Congratulations on his first buck!
  12. Beautiful fish. Nice to see as it seems recent Skaneateles posts have been all about walleye. Hope the Lakers and Bows stay strong there!!
  13. Good stuff. We all know fishing requires patience, but I suspect hunting arrowheads takes 10 times more!!
  14. Sned acres is just of Route 89 a few miles South of Dean's Cove. That is the only place I can think of on the West side of Cayuga other than the State Parks. Maybe someone from the East side can chime in on what may be near Long Point
  15. Absolutely! Give em options, and if just after Silvers but you're catching Lakers, come up 10-15 feet
