thanks will be their

Just make sure you take a walk over the bridge first, one side or the other is always shallow. Real nice launch though.

last fall comming back in with 5or 6 fisherman standing on the wall I run the prop into the gravel,I just took it out of gear and let the current push me back out, How dumb I must have looked. nobody said anything just watched me sit there and look dumb.

You will be fine, just don't leave your rods in the holders in an upright postion or the bridge will shorten them for you, I have a couple "custome" rods I made there myself.

thanks for the info, real sorry about the rods, I've lost a few going down the road each time I only lost the top half

Can you lanuch at tunkhannock park, I have a 18.5 fish and ski. or is the water level still to high, thanks.

Thanks for the report and pic. Good day for starting at 1:00!!

they started bitting as soon as we got their, we left around 4:30 their were a number of boats comming out setting their DR's

Started out from Clute Park in Watkins Glen at 1PM, started my dr's at the mouth and headed north on the east side, I was running HK's blue and silver and moose look wabblers in Chart.,

There were large bait bllls all over, my wife hooked a 4lb LL, I found another bait ball then she hooked up with a 10.1 lb LL, when it jumped I think her heart stopped, it took her a while but she landed it on 8lb. test.

we caught another LL about 2lbs and a rainbow about 2.5lbs.

most fish were caugh around 25 to 28 ft down, and we were trolling about 2.5 to 2.7 .

whats a good time to get there and get a parking spot

I'm still new at fishing cayuga and seneca lakes, how long do you fish before you put up the boat for the season,

thanks, I'll get some and hopefully I wount hurt the fish I release anymore

I would like to change my spoons over to single hooks, the spoons are from 1.5" to 3.0" , could someone help me with hook size and type.

I have a Creastliner Super hawk it's 18.2 long and 97" wide with a 115 mercury, is their any time this boat would be ok to fish their and were if one place is better then another. thanks for your help, reading about catching the big salamon sounds great

Sorry about not getting back to everybody for helping me with my questions, but they stuck me in the hospital heart problems It's good to retire if you can make it, no more fast foods if i want to injoy my fishing, got to loose some tonage the brite side is my boat will go faster thats something. thanks again for your help. hopefully I'll be here for a while.

Thanks this will take some getting use to.

I've never run dip-divers befor,i have 2 down riggers one on each side, if I use them can i run the divers off the back, how should i use the dip-diver, and any info on how to rig up a diver rod and reel, do i use Mono or wire. thanks for any help

thanks for your help it's tuff getting started in this kind of fishing, but i can help myself

how do you use wire is for dip div only or can it be used in other ways, also what a the best dodger and fly combos to get I dont have any

we used small coolers with aerator's that went inside the cooler but their scales would clog everyshing up and then as you said you had to keep them cold by adding ice, they were around $8.00 a dozen back then. sometimes when you got them they were already looking bad, but it was something we did, it was good fun, we ate a lot of wings and junk food during the night.

I'm showing my age here, but back in the 80 ties when NO. End Marina in Keuka would run a fishing tournament for three days, everybody would troll all day then at night we would by sawbellies from them, some people would hook them like a minnow but you would miss a lot of fish, the lakers would take them and run for a while befor takeing the hook, most people used a niddle to thread the hook just under the skin on the side, so the hook was by the head and fish them on a slip bobber, we did this on or near the bluff you cought some Lakers, but the best place was in Hammondsport the brown trout were active all night, the winning brown was taken there quite offton. the lakers would start hitting around 5:30 am until first light. then every body would start trolling again. hope this answers your question.

Thanks, all the infomation I can get will help, maybe I'll see you on the water, I have a red and white walkthrough crestliner, It's just my wife and myself, retirement isn't what they say it is,but fishing will help thanks again

Well this is my first on the discussion, I just retired and picked up a 18 ft Crestliner Super Hawk. I've been fishing Watkins Glen and cayuga lake by Deans cove, I've caught a few fish by accident i'm sure, I have 2 down riggers and 2 lead core rods, I come up from pa about 1.5 hr drive but I dont mind it is beautifulup here, i've been reading about useing divers with wire but money is tight something about fixed income my wife tell me so I'll have to make do. anything you can help me with would be great. do these fleas stay all season? and the grass mats. well thanke for letting me on hope to here from you soon. I'm not sure how to end this anyway this is rwtms
