unfortunitly... drives to the ocean are getting SOOOO costly!!!

trolled North end Cayuga Thursday... only 2 pickeral

no perch

trolled south end Owasco yesterday (Friday)... nadda....

not marking

no perch either..

last Sunday did ok with perch

weather is so depressing...

it's gotta let up sooner or later...right??

Trolled N and S of Taughannock yesterdayafternoon, along the west shore. One for five on Landlock's, the one we did land had a 6" lamprey on it's side, first one this spring we've seen.

I googled Lamprey... whoa,,, those things look pretty nasty!!

did poorly trolling off Tunk yesterday...

saw a lot of fish at 140 FOW

and lots near the stream...

no bites... stick baits

2nd time out in 'new boat'... got skunked....

GREAT JOB!!!!! Nice fish...!!!!!!!!!!!!

netting alone is always interesting!!

Here is one I got last year on a minnow and bobber....

Hi

I was up at the north end Saturday..

First time out with my new (used) boat.

Couple problems...

Winch disengages during ride and strap was loose, twice!

(I have a chain in front and straps in back)

-and I have a 90 mile trip!- one way...

Motor turned over hard all day.. maybe the battery needs replacing.

Trim wasn't working 'sometimes'... gave it some WD and it worked better during day..

Didn't see a whole lot of 'catching'.... from 3-7pm..

infact... the parking lot at Union Springs was EMPTY... at 7 and sun was still out....

But I didn't get skunked..

and....... like Kyle... it was just GREAT to be on the water again!!

WOW...what a fish. Was this near the Narraganset Bay ? ........and on the fly ? Good for you !! Dave

I can't remember where we fished... it was night...

I had the most fantastic night that night...

Not on the fly...

I have an excellent reel... a high speed saltist (Dawa)

it kicks butt... almost 4' with one crank..

we used live eels, just few feet off bottom.. drifting over a rip...

I caught 5 !

BF caught 2

only a few others caught on a FULL party boat...

-limit was 2, I gave 3 away to 3 other women on the boat-

AND a dude with a slightly bigger fish than mine...

was NOT in the pool...

So I won ... bet he won't do that again...

Thank you all very much.... much appreciated...all of your help

Turns out I shall be fishing Sunday as well...!!!!

North end... Union Springs...

Found someone who use to have a place on lake for 15 yrs..

He might know a little

So if you see me out there... swing by and say hi...

Mower don't P off the wife... ok???

Have a great day...

Carolyn

ps... how bout catching one of these???

Pool winner, Frances Fleet RI, last fall

If I piss my wife off she may jump on your boat and fish with you (probably with my boat keys in her pocket). Congrats on the boat.

If you're LUCKY.... your boats keys will be in her pocket...

and hopefully not in the DRINK!! LOL...

No crossdressers..... they'll prolly look better than me!!

No 8x10 glossy's.... they will show my age too much

Yes.... keep me in mind... if your sis needs to fish...

I am totally psyched... getting boat tomorrow...

Going out with a friend Sat from west lower side... Cayuga.. for the Maiden Voyage!!

(forgot name of place)

Thanks Guys...

Hi Guys....

I was wondering if there are any women fisher'men' out there who are looking for someone to fish with once in a while.....

Sometimes my boyfriend cannot go with me and I am looking for someone to fish with...

I don't want to fish with someones husband or BF...

cause that just ain't right...

I just bought a new (to me) 19' fishing boat...

in addition to my (small) river fishing boat...

Thanks in advance for any help...

Carolyn

Where ya gonna sleep in that one? Good luck with her, nice rig.

Yeah... tha's what I thought til I found out it comes with Bimini, front, side and rear (snap) curtains...

That was the clincher...

See.... I have a Toyota Highlander rated to pull 3500...

and most cuddys were more weight than I wanted to pull..

Most all the boats I were looking at had serious signs of age...

This one didn't... it is newer and in excellent condition...

I DO DISLIKE the carpet everywhere!!

Why do people put carpet all over a fishing boat??!!

Maybe the people who designed that have never cleaned a carpet at home...?

I dont know!!!

Just look at all this dang carpet...

somebody was carpet happy!!! LOL!!!

I will be cutting thru the carpet and installing flush rod holders in the top/sides...

Hope my carpet doesn't fray!!

I'm thinking the flange will keep it from doing that....

Thanks Guys.... Found one today

I saw a book with depth charts at Senaca Marine last Sunday...

They have a nice detailed one with many lakes for $20.

I just ordered one for myself.

thanks guys....

I'm still looking...

Have a great day!...

C and S Marine in vestal has a really nice used sportcraft at the top end of your price range. Reason I know id he is selling on consignment for me. Rigged for fishing! Ask for JR tell him John sent you.

Hi John!

Nice to meet you!

I've spoke to him about it last week and peeked at it again today!... on way to the fishing flea market in Wat Glen.

I like it!.....but...

Two things...

I'm afriad it would really over heat my tranny... 03 Toyota Highlander (6)...

(your boat's a 20', right?)

and it doesn't have a place to sleep cept for the little covered open bow...

I really wanted to be able to sleep over night on it..

but it was warm and cozy in the 'wheel house' today

ps... does it have a working live well?

and how much do you figure the total weight of boat and trailer is??

Hello..

I'm looking for a fishing boat that can be pulled by a midsized SUV.

I'd like something with scuppers, no carpet and possibly a cuddy.

Something that ain't junk, for I don't want to wrench...

I don't have a lot of extra money...

so I am looking to spend 2 - 5K...

I know it's hard to find what I am looking for...

but I figured I would put this out there and see what happens...

I am in the Binghamton area...

Thanks for looking...
