Thanks for the info Todd. I used the Chaumont launch 3x during the second week of May to launch a 22 footer with no real issues. However, I did leave/approach the dock with a kicker motor. Once afloat and away from the dock, bay access was good.
The water and ramp in Sackets looked okay but I did not launch there. Since there is no floating dock getting in/out of the boat from the retaining wall would be very difficult.
Selling a Lowrance HDS 7 GEN2 complete: Display Unit, gimbal mount, transducer with cable, 10' transducer extension cable, power cable, screen cover, Operation Manual and Quick Start Guide.
Acquired this unit when I traded boats and have replaced it with a Garmin, my personal preference. The unit is fully functional and clean.
Asking $300.00. In the Palmyra NY area.
Nice reports guys. That's a great looking new dock. Do you see any concerns launching a 20 foot boat at these water levels?
Thanks...and some nice fish too.
Same with us a little further west near p-ville. Got a late start but don't think it made any difference. Lakers in shallow but basically just a blank screen.
A beautiful day on the lake.
John - The floor is all original carpet however when trolling for trout/salmon I remove the rear seats and put a rubber mat down to catch the mess. The boat is available and located in Palmyra NY.
apb - 1.7 - 1.8 mph ground speed is about the slowest it will troll on flat water; faster trolling with a wind and slower when trolling into a wind.
I fished Chaumont last week and the launch in Three Mile Bay is in good shape. It's a floating system with a good ramp. Problem there is very limited parking.
Like Wallychaser said, you need waders to use the launch in Chaumont.
