You would be better off. I sold mine and replaced with a 12 helix g3n which I love but not really that much better. Mega imaging is better and little trinkets like my ulterra remote comes up on helix but not three grand better. Also humminbird still fixes those units.

I have fished out of the IBAY launch for many years and normally head East to ship builders down to hedges.  Since the IBAY launch is hosed and I am fishing out of a smaller boat thinking of heading out of the river.  Its not that long of a run but after getting stuck in one of the worst storms a couple years ago I am a little concerned running down to the bay as most storms come in from the West.  Is fishing in front of the ponds good this time of year?  Is the shoreline between the river and bay decent?  I know to look for green water and fish between 7-25 foot pending sun and water color.  Just looking for opinions.  I hope the launch is open sooner than later.  Thanks for any suggestions. 

Shakedown cruise this afternoon....Gin clear out to 25. 41F everywhere.  Not a mark on the screen, moved out to 50 feet, blank screens....but I got the dust washed off alot of gear.
 
Does the North wind have an impact? Is that why it was so cold compared to other days and did that keep the fish out deeper?

Check the Fishing Maps Guide Book New York at Sportsman's Connection last one I have is 2016 may have an update check their website

Good stuff! Nothing like "old school" It is a shame that many of the folks reading this are probably scratching their heads and wondering what the hell are they talking about? Perhaps not realizing how much fun they have missed.

I remember him too. John Oravec did some night fishing also. these two guys moved up to Lake Ontario once that fishery got started. later 70s Don Swann did some night fishing. he sold spoons. Swann spoons. I bought a lot from him. he moved out later. The only one left when all these guys stopped fishing Canandaigua was Ron Irean spelling is wrong. happy hooker up on the north end did a little night fishing too. by the later 80s only ones doing it was guys like me and the others who could stay up all night. this night life is not for everyone. I can write a book about night life fishing. by 1130 pm. most guys got off the lake. about midnight fishing got better. lasted till 3 am. started trolling once the sun came up. fished till 11am. slept in the camper till 5. got ready and went out at 8 pm to fish another night. those were the good old days. I took guys out with me but they only lasted one night.  my best fishing buddy my black lab. this night fishing was very popular with the old timers. night fishing was a way of life for most of them. once the hight tech fishing got started it all died out. you people that read these post think night fishing is easy. your wrong. try setting up in 150 ft of water with 400 ft of anchor rope. sit there for two hours and wait for the bait to come up. then the wind comes up around midnight. all you see out there is white water. by the time I got back to shore my heart was racing. tough fishing. Seneca lake bad lake at night when the wind kicked up. but that lake produce fish at night.  new moon best fishing. full moon stay in and sleep. if I got 3 good nights during a month with no moon and good weather it was a lot.

We stayed on the boats all weekend. Fished with both “John’s “ and Dan C.
You’re right on about the night fishing. When full moon the bait would stay down about 10 feet .. m80s would bring them up Don’t forget the bass boats coming up the lake at 60mph in the morning to wake you up. Guys moved up to oak orchard in about 80 Here we are at the Oak

 old finger lakes antique we used on canandaigua and Keuka lakes for night fishing. I still have mine. I bought mine at sutton spoon company for 40 dollars back in the early  1970. these nets were made by an old woman from Pen Yan. the purpose of the speed net, catch sawbellies under the lights. The net didn't work for me. I couldn't catch one fish with the net. by the time the net hit the water. the bait moved away. I ended up using a ice fishing rod with 6 ft of line with 5 tiny cold hooks. I snagged my bait. its was an art trying to bring bait up at night. I had to work around the moon. it was best from early June through July. by august the bait was to deep to draw up with lights. this night fishing was different fishing all together. I fished Seneca a lot at night. when I fished it. I was the only guy out there. I was on my own. these fingers lakes like to kick up at night around midnight. The smaller lakes were very popular on weekend nights. it looked like a lit up city out there. I fished on week day nights. I loved being out there by my self. very relaxing. Today I would do something different. The hell with the bait. I caught fish. worst fish to catch was a rainbow. that sucker made a mess out of everything. canandaigua south end marina clarks had 2 good guides to go out with at night.     

I moved here in 1991, and learned about the Smelt runs within the 1st year or two... Love to eat Smelt, so went and bought a net... Just as I was ready to get started I kept hearing about the great  downturn in the fishery.. Went  a few times, never saw anyone with more than  few, and lost interest... Basically was  the "you should have been here  10 years ago"  type of thing... Oh well, missed out... Maybe they'll come back, but with  the Goby infestation, I have my doubts..

Speed net
