Fort Niagara Launch
Wondering what the trick is to launching at the Fort Niagara launches? I heard it can be pretty tricky with the river current possibly pushing the boat into the concrete walls at the dock/launch area. Which would be better the north or south launch? Might be launching a 22 footer. Any advise would be helpful, Thanks!
I never got the big secret thing either, I'll tell you where, when, & how. Wondering if it took 2 to pick up cooler, maybe they had more than their share & they didn't want to talk & took off fast .
We fished out of Dunkirk today targeted lakers with Gambler rigs we boated 20 & lost 3-4. Also got a few eyes on gambler rigs released off the riggers (unintentional). Ended up with 20 lakers, 2 steelies, 6-7 eyes but only 4 keepers. Had a great day, but hot as hell!
Really sad news, I believe it is up to the owner/captain of the boat to tell every one on board where life jackets are located. Also they are to be readily available at all times.
2 Cannon electric down riggers for sale
Posting for a friend. 2 electric cannon Mag 10 A down riggers; Digit Troll with auto stop; 4 ft. booms; 2 rod holders on each; ball retrieval pulleys; swivel bases, & 2- 8# balls. $ 500 for both. In the Buffalo/ Alden ,NY area. Local pick up . Maybe can meet half way if need be. Thanks for looking.
Great to deal with, fast service & his product works great. We have been killing the lakers using his cowbells! On 2 outings on Erie we boated 33 lakers & all were released but 3 for the smoker.
I made 2 out of some 3/8" steel rod I had laying around. Just bent it into a " s" shape & slipped a piece of old gas line hose I also had & done! looks like the Amish outfitters style & works great.
If they build a launch like the one at the Buffalo safe harbor it will be a waste of money & time! It's a million$$$ launch that $uck$ big time. Just a terrible design all together! To launch a boat by yourself you need to walk back & forth, up & down the ramp 4 times about 25 yards each time. Then to retrieve it you need to do it all again, just a plain stupid set up!
I heard from a friend a few years back it took 8 hrs, along with the ships. He stopped doing it & put it on a trailer to go back & forth. May have changed idk.
My outlet is next to the hole that you put your safety chain into on the receiver just to the side of it about an 1" away from it . I just drilled a couple holes through back of the plastic box & attached with self taping screws. the outlet faces out towards the back. I would guess you could mount it any where that is convenient & easy to get at. If I knew how to do the pic thing I would post it or I could text it to you. check your pm for my # if you want. send me your #
