Kicker took a swim
fisherdude replied to Killerk's topic in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)
I put up a post last year with brand new panther kicker bracket . Mine broke in the same spot too Didn't lose the Kicker my fishing partner noticed it was broke and I tied it off with a Rope plus there was a safety cable on it. Panther sent me a new backing plate that I have not used cuz I did not trust it. Buddy made one out of quarter inch aluminum three-quarter inch oak problem solved. Those plastic backing plates are junk. Sent from my XT1609 using Lake Ontario United mobile app -

Sunday ....finish up with 15 lake trout and a few short LL and a rain bow for the grill . we trolled north out of deans with the same results as Reel Doc only had 2 fish boated by 7 30 am. i put the TD fish hawk down on the rigger to 100 ft and was surprise to find temp was warm down to 70 fow when yesterday was cold after 40 fow . so we went to the east side to a few way points looking some big lakers but they seem to have no fish on them . kept trolling south to long point and and started marking fish but no takers decided to turn north put the kicker on a low rpm and let the waves do the work . in 140 to 150 fow Game on L L , bows , lake trout all the way to the first point by Aurora . cowbells and spin glows with MI spoons on rig rods did a number on the fish after 9 30 . we called it a day at 11 30 and i was amazed how well be did in 2 hrs

using the down riggers , I make my distance behind the down rigger weight 100 ft especially when fishing high in the water column. Run 30 lb mono step down to a 15 lb fluorocarbon leader about 8 feet. I was using UV spoons today being a bright sunny day. Running a 8 ft 15 lb fluorocarbon cheater free sliding. My GPS speed was around 2.2 to 2.8 Fishhawk Down Speed was reading 2. 2 to 2.4 . I was concentrating on Silvers and i was picking small Lakers at this speed. When I slowed the boat down to 1.8 to 2.0 GPS speed My Fish Hawk what is reading 1. 6 to 1.8 . I like using Michigan Stinger spoons moonshine's flt spoons .suttons work really well also. I run my Chinook divers with a spin doctor UV flies or pro troll and UV flies today I tried keeping them up high didn't do so well. At the end I dropped my gispy to 100 ft deep hit my biggest Laker .

Drunk people and fireworks don't mix. Every year something goes wrong celebrating the 4th I don't think the private sector should be able to have fireworks. I'm sorry for you and your other Marine boaters . Hope you get it all back together soon. Sent from my XT1609 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

i would have to agree with all the above . i have showed up at the ramp after a long drive there and found the winch missing a bolt and bent up so it wouldn't operate . into the tool bag unbolt the rest and launch on the safety chain . floated back on the trailer tied down with rope for ride back . new winch next day . must go fishing at all cost ..........
