I picked this Savage 1899 250-3000 up last year when a friend offered it. Carried it once during deer season and filled a doe tag then put it away. I don’t feel like it fits me well so I’m trying to decide what to do with it, but before I make any decisions I want to know more about it. Does anyone have any information or thoughts they can share ?

Had a chance to get on the water early today before the steady rain came in. Fished west of the creek to the beach. Water was green to clear but overcast helped. Fished sticks and spoons from 10-30 fow. Went 4 for 4 with 3 browns and a steelhead. Best stick was a perch and best spoon was SS88. Brown water was east of the creek. Water levels going up. Docks at launch starting to get wet.

Fished west of Sandy Creek today 7:00-11:00. 10-20 fow. Lots of fishable brown and green water. Sticks on boards and Sutton 44s on riggers. Went 6 for 11 with 5 football BT and 1 coho. Lost king at the boat. Launch is good and mouth is 5-6 ft deep. Some debris floating in lake but nothing that can’t be managed. Felt good to get out.

Took my buck yesterday up by Rochester. Didn’t finish the job last year so taking one early was a relief. He was scraping and marking the whole way in and left a scrape trail 100 yds long. He didn’t go far but I could have tracked him by his stink. Things should be getting more exciting every day for the next few weeks. Good luck everybody. Be safe in those stands.

Took the advice off the posts and fished marks in 85 to 95 fow most of morning. Patience paid off when the water settled down. Boated a fat brown and 2 matures. Only one laker and the skippies are still around. Took everything on green/white/black spoons and Sutton 88s. East/west trolls were best. Good weather and good company. Not many nice days like this left before hunting season.

I had an experience today that caught me off guard and I'm trying to figure out how I should feel about it. I'm looking for opinions. A small piece of property (40 acres) I've hunted forever in Cattaraugus county was recently sold and posted. Not that uncommon these days. The property is small but it's convenient and close to other huntable properties. The posted sign said 'written permission only' and had a phone number. My hope was that it may be an investment property or even a lease situation becasue it was such a small piece of property, so I called. The guy calls me back and tells me that he has no intentions of letting anyone hunt the property but he marked the posted signs that way so people would call him so he could tell them to stay off the property. This is a done deal in my mind. I have no desire, or need, for access to this property. I have no hard feeling towards this guy or losing access to the property. What has caught me off guard and has had me thinking about it all day is if this guy is a jerk or a genius for marking his posted signs that way. Is it necessary to bait people into calling? I'm interested in your opinions and whether your looking at it from a property owner position or from the position of a hunter looking for permision.

Sk8man is correct. All reputable ear plugs or muffs will have a NRR (noise reduction rating) on them. The NRR is the amount of decibels that they suppress. Subtract the NRR from the actual noise level and that is what you are exposed to while wearing them. The higher the NRR the better. Anything around NRR 30-33 is a pretty good start for something that isn’t custom for you. If you’re looking to measure noise levels, there is a free phone App called SLA Lite that you can download that does a pretty good job. Everyone should protect themself from noise. Hearing loss sneaks up on you and is permanent. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Great start to season
Luke510 replied to JimB's topic in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)
JimB, That was us out there today. You aren't kidding about the fog. One of those mornings when you end up in Canada if you didn't have a gps. We worked the same water and did 2 browns and 2 kings. We hooked up with the second just as you were picking up. Fog lifted and fish stopped biting. Green and purple stick bite today. -
Had the chance to hunt Iroquois Refuge this morning. Lots of birds, great shooting and the stands well groomed. Mallards, teal, pintails, widgeons and the occasional goose mixed in. I'll try again next year for a tag. If you have the opportunity I'd recommend it to anyone.
