The eel situation sucks. Let's have a little throwback to hownbad they were on Cayuga a short few years back. Balls, boats, paddles, divers all having eels on them. 2018 was a successful treatment i believe, however, this spring. 2021, is the one that will make the difference as long as the stars align to treat the lake. The unfortunate 9 years with the lack and inability to treat puts us where we are. I was really hoping for the state of the lake meeting this past fall after the lake wide study. Maybe we can ask for a zoom meeting for the lake? I'll reach out to DEC. I keep my hopes. Also, I believe Seneca Lake Pure Waters Assn. would help if there is a way? Food for thought anyways.

Make sure you install a hydraulic lock valve, if not your steering wheel will spin instead of the rudder moving.... Sent from my SM-G960U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

What steering unit do you have? If its the factory unit by Hydrive,Hydride, have some advice for ya... Installed my Raymarine Ev150 into my 86 3100 last winter. Sent from my SM-G960U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I think its a great starting price... Anyone in the market for an outboard with controls and power trim knows the costs. No reason to worry. You will sell it. Sent from my SM-G960U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I use marine shrink wrap from Dr Shrink. My boat uses a 24x45 size to successfully do it without wasting material too. Also, just watch a "how to" video on you tube. The heat gun is expensive, but for me to purchase the gun, and materials, it would of cost the same to cover at a marina. I covered my boat this year for$85, thats with a zipper door as well. You will need: Wrap Nylon strap Shrink wrap tape Razor blade Heat gun-propane(have seen guys use trigger activated weed burners too) Maybe some 2x4 for your peaks. The biggest PIA your first time is stringing up the main supports... after that its easy. You have to be tight!!!! Nick Sent from my SM-G960U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Thank you. I do it myself! Its easy and for what it costs to do it, well worth it. Nick Sent from my SM-G960U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

The treatment was missing for 9 years!!!! At the time, they didn't need to, then they needed to, and couldn't due to flooding, then they finally did. 9 years of successful spawning. Will treat again next spring. I have my own opinions on these things, however I have a bigger opinion on what the state may do with the fishery. I am kinda excited.... [emoji16] We will see what the next few years brings. June and July we had 2 or 3 eels on every fish. End of July and all of August I saw maybe 5 total. All fish we have been catching are healthy from 2lbs to 10lbs. Rainbows have 90% been clean. Salmon as well. Browns, well that's a discussion for another day, side not i believe we lost one of the giants the other day! [emoji2957] Right at the dang boat too!

With all of the concerns here, I hope to see most of you at the next seneca lake fisheries meeting. They are hoping to do one this fall after all the bait studies are confirmed. Seneca had its sampling done for cold and warm water this year. There is a lot of bait. There is a lot of fish. There is a lack of browns and a lack of Atlantic's as well. However, I'm interested to see what the state will do. Nick Sent from my SM-G960U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Welcome back! Wait till ya see the new cabins at Samsen... Water has been screwy, but the fish are active. Temps have been 40 to 70 down. With 50-60 prime temps. Greens and whites have been best. The flasher bite has picked up for lakers. Silvers have been slow from past years unless ya head south about 5-8 miles. Watch out for weeds! [emoji2961] They really make ya work for it since week after the 4th. Nick Sent from my SM-G960U using Lake Ontario United mobile app
