Capt Vince Pierleoni

I usually use Pier Propellor just off South end Grand Island(RT 190). Guys who use the business in Canandaigua like it. If Spinellis in Rochester is still in business thats another option. Good luck.

Not much to add as Rick is very astute with Humminbird electronics but I do run two Helix units connected by ethernet and it has been trouble free..

Excitement is high for the ladies and boat owners! A big THANK YOU in advance to all participants and sponsors(who are still rolling in)! Steph is ecstatic to hit the 40 team milestone! See all team representatives at the meeting tmw nite (8/19) at Maxwell Station in Olcott, 6;30 pm. There will be a couple different Calcuttas for the boat Captains to get in to, various fundraising sales, and of course the rules will be gone over.

So Craig has informed me that Tommy Boddy will run "Big fish friday" on July 9th, so interested teams should see him to enter. Also, there will be a KOTO on Saturday July 10--the same day as the Big Boy Shootout. Competitors that want in on both can do so.

I just heard Gatlen of Lake Breeze marina has booked a band( at weigh in site in marina} lot 6-9 pm, Friday night July 9. Burgers and hot dogs will be available. The one day shootout tournament is July 10th. Mandatory meeting is 6pm Friday July 9 on marina cafe' deck. Contact Craig Hijecki for tournament info/entry details.

The Captains meeting for the July 10th Big Boy Shootout will be held at 6 pm July 9th on the Cafe deck at Lake Breeze marina. For details on this Tournament contact Craig Hijecki or stop in and see Lois at Lake Breeze marina.

This time of year can be challenging on the Lower even for experienced river guides. There is lots of spawning bait and a plethora of moss coming down--particularly on a strong SW wind. The latest forecast I saw tonite says T storms most likely after 2 pm Saturday. Of course there's no guarantees but there are enough fish within a few miles of shore that it should be worthwhile to hit the lake for you.

Yes on both. July 10th is a one day shootout. Sat/Sun of Labor day weekend is two dayer. Contact Craig for further details. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Updated Cup points after the first of 3 events: Cup points…. 1. Yankee 301 2. 5 more minutes 281 3. Oh baby 278 4. Legacy 276 5. Mister 274 6. Thrillseeker 270 7. Vision quest 248 8. Dublin 228. Everyone is still in it and this is what was envisioned. 4 more scoring days and 2 events. Thank you to Matt LeClair for the score keeping. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

As it was intended for 2021(before Covid threw a wrench in the plan) the Niagara Pro Am, Orleans County Open, and the Sodus Pro Am will be used for scoring the Challenge Cup Chase. Those interested in getting in will need to see Matt LeClair before or at the Niagara Pro Am Captains meeting. Matt will once again keep the scoring system for the series. Cup/Tourney Coordinators received questions about boat restrictions. It was decided that because it was allowed in the past that this year a max of two different vessels can be used per team. This may not be the case in the future if some other plans come to fruition. Teams using two different boats must have the same Captain throughout or two consistent team members at all 3 events. Good luck to all participants.

Update to original question- new management for the Harbor resort restaurant is targeting Memorial weekend to open for breakfast. I am not connected in any way just passing this on. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Yeah no, cooking onboard will never happen in my operation. The clients bring enough for 2 armies daily anyway. To end any speculation, Nick has retired as a professional cook- Ive seen him receive incredible offers and pass. He did his time. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
