    i fished out of there last saturday and the lot was full and boats all over on the water. I'll be fishing fairhaven this weekend but i'm sure you wont be alone out there that launch is one of the few that has stayed open all year with no bay speed limit to worry about and is one of the nicer launches anyway has been decent fishing my last two trips as well

    do this also if you use releases on shower curtian clips you can add a small egg sinker and the weight will help them slide

    On Seneca I like 10 or 12lb test for spoons I use p-line fluroclear which is not a true flurocarbon but a hybrid I do this because I used it on my tipups for pike for years and it earned my trust I have tried seagar it is also good but I don't have the time in with it Sent from my XT1080 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    hughes July 30 finally got a chance to go back to the big lake. got to the launch about 5:45 and was supprised by how many trailers were there. we got launched and left with the line of boats. we went past everyone else and started our set up in 325 we trolled north running two riggers and 3 dipseys. marked some fish in 320 but no takers did not mark anything all the way to 520 so we turned west to change the line and werent pointed that way 5 mins when the dipsey back 340 fired with a skippy. that would be the last dipsey hit all day. as that dipsey was going out the 80 rigger fired but came un buttoned after a minuet. set that back down and hit a skippy on the 90 rigger. at this point we still havent marked a fish we switched the 3rd dipsey to a 7 color down the chute just because having it in the way always gets us bit. we ended the day 6 for 11 with all hits on the riggers and cheaters from 90 down and up. got two big matures out of it a decent steely and a 2 year old. to the folks on here who suggested towing a boga type grip for catch and release thank you. all the fish swam away strong after a couple minuets even the one with the blood on it. the big king stripped out 600+ feet of line on the rigger rod than shot 3 feet out the water wayyyyy behind the boat. at some point after that she managed to get hook in her belly and I had to drag her in sideways my arm still hurts

    I miss my walkers used them on my dad's boat and even as a kid they were easy to set and reliable I have blacks now and I am happy with them as well but if I had new riggers I am not sure which I would get Sent from my XT1080 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    nice morning to be out we finally got back on Lake O ourselves today. fished out of bear creek from about 9 til 4 with a break in the middle to pick up a passenger at the dock. We went three for 4 today with a decent steely and teens king. Got my dad out for a trolling trip for the first time since he owned his boat in the mid ninetys. He got the stealhead. we marked fish from 120 to 180 with the best screens 140 and under all our fish came on spoons on the rigger 72 and 85 down. the one miss was a meat rig on the rigger man was it hazy and muggy out there I lost about 4 gallons of water in sweat. brother with the king

    In reality with that budget get a pair of used electrics and save up till you can upgrade Sent from my XT1080 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    that reaction is no joke especially to those flys because they typically dont cause any reaction beyond the initial hurt. I have a similar alergy to a deer fly like bug. it looks like a deer fly on growth hormone big and black and mean last time I got bit on my toe my whole foot swelled up to the point where I couldnt walk and it got red half way up my lower leg. i ended up with a patch of sking dying at the bite. good luck with the bugg spray mine just arrived today this will be my first time trying it last year my brother was convinced he just needed more off so he kept spraying and they were all over him and leaving me mostly alone. this year he has learned his lesson

    that sounds almost like commercial outriggers. look up commercial salmon fishing on youtube. could also be what many longliners call birds actually used to help stabilize the boat when pulling gear. most standard outriggers do not have motors and there just is not need. you can usually run the line out with one hand. as far as using standard outriggers I was given a pair of 12 footers a couple years ago and here is what i find. they are nice in a crowd because you are much more maneuverable they also make you look bigger so it tends to buy you more room. in rougher weather they don't bounce around like boards. you can run anything off of them including dipseys which is nice for more spread. downside is they don't get as far out as boards. for my set up storage is easy but initial set up and put away is a pain in the but. still they have there time and place. if i got a new boat I would consider getting a new set but I would go longer with a different type of mount ideally something that I could leave attached to the boat in storage.

    talk to your doctor and get an epi pen. allergies like that get worse with more exposures. If you go into full out anaphylaxis benadryl is not gonna do it and you're a long way from that kind of help

    16 is the hailing channel it is also the emergency channel you call on 16 than switch to talk. If you have a radio law states you have to monitor 16 but in reality it's good practice because that's where a call for help will come from and if you need to make one in a hurry you don't have to think about changing channels that's why most radios have a button to go right to 16 Sent from my XT1080 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
