  1. I had a walleye done by scott samolis in honeoye last year, did a great job. PM me if you want pictures.
  2. The most important thing is being where they want to be, hands down.
  3. devo she took a stinger "dang" on a downrigger 35' down 40' back over 65fow around 3.3mph.
  4. thanks guys and no official weight unfortunately
  5. given the warm temps we've had I'd imagine you won't have any ice issues
  6. Look in the tackle and techniques section, recent posts regarding the same subject. Also use the search feature this issue has been discussed many times.
  7. size 20 reels won't be useful for anything over a few colors of lead
  8. how deep do you want to get and what will you be targeting?
  9. http://m.gandermountain.com/modperl/product/details.cgi?pdesc=Gander-Mountain-Advantage-Crank-Casting-Rod-711-GSC13-711CHT&i=711419 These rods are great for regular sized dipsys. Put a size 20 or 30 line counter reel on it and spool it up with 30# power pro super slick.
  10. http://www.offshoretackle.com/OR18.html you could maybe try and put these on somehow
  11. I"ve heard of a few smaller fish being caught recently which would lead me to believe that there is some spawning going on. I personally haven't caught or seen a fish under 27'' but I don't fish the weeds or shallows which is where I suspect the smaller fish likely hang out until they reach a size that they can venture out into open water without becoming trout food.
  12. Get the lowrance, seems like a few of the onix units are having software issues.
  13. From what I've been told the springwater rod and gun club only stocked about 7500 fingerlings over a period of about 6 years then the DEC wouldn't allow them to stock anymore as they felt it would interfere with their rainbow program. It seems like the bows are doing well but I think the lake could still support a fishable population of eyes. I always mark massive amounts of bait in hemlock and with them not stocking browns anymore I feel that there is room for a few walleye.
  14. Last October I was lucky enough to hook into one of the elusive monster hemlock eyes, this guy taped out at 32''. Took it to Scott Samolis taxidermy on cr37 in Honeoye and I couldn't be more pleased with how it turned out. Cellphone pics don't do it justice. Scott also mounted the 22# lake trout we caught on canandaigua 2 years ago and did an awesome job on that fish as well.
  15. drop your price or hold onto it til spring
  16. the same exact question was asked this year at the dec state of the lakes meeting for the western finger lakes. The officers present all agreed that as long as the big motor was completely immobilized that you will be legal.
  17. yes as long as there is no possible way the main motor can be used, meaning prop removed, or spark plugs removed.
