Thats straight forward. Thank you shawn393

Hey Guys,

I have a reel that I bought off Ebay used (bad idea) that needs some work. I remember talking with someone at the Trollers Association Flea Market last year here in Rochester that worked on reels. Would anyone on here know that individual or someone in the Rochester area that works on reels?

Thanks in advance for taking the time to help me out,

-Chris

Great post by A-Lure-A and Captain Bish.

I find it challenging as a weekend warrior (bi-monthly) fisherman to stay on the fish also. Everything previously mentioned is spot on. Few pointers over the years for me.

1) Decision fatigue is real - having too many options has left me second guessing myself to much. I have a fishing backpack that holds 4 plastic tackle box trays (8 spoons each) and 2 flasher/fly bags (6 combos). I plan the night or days leading up based off weather and reading reports hear and conditions (4 boxes are labeled Dawn/9am/11am/2pm). This has limited by options when continually second guessing myself when I am not catching

2) I start my morning with two opposite sides - One for active fish - short leads and one for negative fish - long leads. I spend my morning in search mode until I catch or graph fish and let them tell me what they want.

3) When I do graph fish / bait I stay on them for 3-4 passes before moving on. I used to drive over them once no hits meant no fish. I also do not use a temp probe but stack the water column from a 7-color to a thumper rod. When the fish talk I listen.

4) A lot of guys that I have always looked up to on this site (yankeetroller, thrillseeker, gambler) or facebook follows (andy bliss, dirty goose, dan the fisher) just seem to be so consistent catching because they are so consistent in their approach. Every hour on the water you are learning and once you pick up pattern that is favorable log it and stick with it. Things quite often do not go as planned but having the ability to adapt as conditions adapt I believe is what makes some anglers on this forum great.

I still have not figured these fish out and hopefully never completely do because it keeps me coming back to this site reading, listen and learning.

Good Luck!

When I was looking for mine last year both S&R tackle in I-Bay and South Shore Tackle (which I believe is now officially closed) had options. Not sure if either are open but S&R had two of the older style green/silver salmon nets. I love mine.

THANK YOU to everyone that contributed over the past few months donating everything from gift cards to tackle, poles and reels. In total I ended up with 17 poles/reels, extra line and a tackle box of misc gear from perch to trout for each kid. It is great to be apart of such a great group on the LOU!

The unfortunate and abrupt end to the school year has impacted the club meetings however we are planning in the coming weeks to organize a drop off location for each kid to get their set ups!

Thanks,

Chris

SOLD - headed to a great home.

Boat is pending 

Hi Jim - you are welcome to take the lowrance unit. Send me a PM with your address.

Thanks, 

Chris

No sir - all reels are sold. My apologies for not changing the ad marking to sold/closed.

Thanks,

Chris

Three different head units that are all in great shape - have been sitting in my garage for the last 4 years. Hopefully someone has the terminal attachments already and can use these for back ups. Otherwise an Ebay search might turn up the later half of the unit.

1 - Lowrance X-85

1 - Eagle GPS unit

1 - Ray Jeff Unit

Thanks,

Chris

Ricky: Boat is still for sale - I'm going to show the boat in the order that folks have inquired. There are a couple people ahead of you but if you are still interested we can confirm a date/time.

Thanks,

-Chris

By Saturday/Sunday it will be in Penfield NY

Sorry for the delay - the boat is still available. I should be able to get to the boat and take additional photos this weekend and then post.

rickg - I will not be talking financials/offers unless in person and you have had a view of the boat.

Thanks,

Chris

Hi Offshore - I must have took the photos done when the boat went into storage last fall, my apologies. Here are a couple photos from last week when I brought it home. Once I get it washed and waxed I can send a few more over to whoever is interested.

I put a base of 20# mono to the spool followed by a 150yd spool of 30# braid - green lo-vis from Stren - then 27# lead core. That is the base for all lead cores listed
