The perch fishing on Seneca has been really tuff for the people I know over the last few years. It is that time of year again so I would just go try.

  That's because people catch them by the hundreds & sell them for profits & then wonder why there aren't many.  Good way to wipe out a species, remember the blue pike in lake Erie, all gone now!  People said it coulndn't happen.

  I know , it is hard to believe!

   Check out  "fivips.com"  (fish finders) for prices, They seem reasonable.

  How long ?

  I believe the bunks should carry the weight of the boat & the boat should barely touch the rollers when loaded.  The rollers are more for getting the boat over the cross members of the trailer when coming up the angle of the ramp.

   How long?  Sure looks like a great boat.  Good luck with your sale. 

   Yamaha 3 hp;  2 cycle;  short shaft (18" from the mount to the cavitation plate);  tiller steering;  self contained gas tank on top;  only forward gear must turn engine 180* for reverse.  It is used on a 16" aluminum boat & will push it 5-6 mph. It was also used on a canoe. excellent condition.   Asking $450,  can send pics if interested,  PM me,   Thanks

   Call L&M Hank.     Got fresh gas ?  Try K-100 or Sea Foam, maybe water in gas tank.  Maybe a spun prop?

  We fished lakers on Friday  got 10 out of 12 to the boat biggest was 18+ #'s.  A bit west of the stacks in 110-116 fow.  Had a fun day catching, but rough waters.

  New price  $150  each  4,000 # cap.

  4/0  Watermelon cow bells work great on lk. Erie out of Dunkirk.

  2 - travel trailer axles off a 30' travel trailer;  with 15" wheels;(needs new tires)  electric brakes;  leaf springs(4 leafs each);  76" between the brake backing plates.   Asking $200 ea. or B/O.  PM me if interested,  Thanks.

   Nice fish,  Congrats !

  Try looking on the LEU site.  Or walleye.com,  eastern Lake Erie site

Some one better get a patent for this before it shows up on Shark Tank! 

  I just started using them this year & like them better than the dipsy's.  But I think they need a better way to move the weight around.  Too easy to lose screw & lead.  jmho. 

Nice story. Good luck to Dave & his new boat.

  Are the Amish boards wood or fiber?

  Nice job!

  How about trying "Catch your limit, but limit your catch",  (catches).  Don't always need new rules/laws.  jmo.

  A friend always told me, I'll tell you how, what time, with what, but I will not tell you where!  Maybe he wasn't a friend!  lol

  Jmo. I like Pharm A Sea or Fish Pharm  (Phish Pharm ?)

  I have this exact motor & it will push my 22' Grady at 7+mph at full throttle. this seems like a good buy/deal.  Jmo.

  I was going to mention about the life jackets also, but when I looked the second time I saw the kids had them on & thought they must have been under their coats.
