Could you use bobber stops?

Problem is they were never rated for heavy weights

are those the shipped prices?

I'm still waiting on pics of lake Ontario charter pictures with 12+ steelhead as their creel

It simply doesn't happen enough for this proposal to matter. It is simply lip service to trib guys

I do not think this change will impact the steelhead population one bit.... show me a lake ontario charter with a 4 man limit of steelhead.... hardly if ever happens

2 does not seem much, but most open water fishing is done with 2 or 3 fishermen per boat and charter fishing is often 6. We really are talking about 6 steelhead instead of 9 we should approach it as such.

exactly

This is very informative. I was unaware the NYS Governor controlled lake Ontario levels

I am missing one aspect. Do you basically start your troll, find desired depth and let it hit bottom and reel up a little and that's how much line you have out?

Awesome job Pete, this is absolute top notch tutorial. I especially liked all the background.

You have a real talent as an educator

 This is not to spread rumors and hear say but I read the entire incident involved a mishap with the anchor and anchor line

Yes, they were covered or stored. There was a specific run of them that had this condensation issue that they resolved supposedly. Issue is you don't know how old new ones you are buying are

I have had 2116's for 2 years and had to replace the electric counts that came stock with them. I had to replace them 3 weeks after install due to condensation build up in them. It is such a known issue that all I had to do was call Scotty and tell them and they sent me 2 free and I sent them the serial number of counters. My friend who is a regular charter has gone threw 12 on his 4 riggers in 5 years

Isn't that  a special reply. You can still buy the old style.

Do you even run Scottys?

 I do in fact and that is why I recommend 2116's  thanks for asking

And if you can link me to mechanical 2116 counters for them I'll buy them right now

You are referring to the new digital readout counters then. I have the old style mechanical counters since 94, No issues.

correct... I doubt he is buying riggers from 94

Scotty rigger counters have history has issues fogging up and becoming ruined from condensation

Also they are self contained battery controlled I believe so the counters do have a "life" to them. 

One downside on Scotty is the counter issues but that's just something ya live with

Scotty 2116

Awesome

I’m not exactly sure why you paid so much for that net, they are only $80 brand new. I own 3 rangers already. If you don’t believe me you can look at dicks or fishusa. Either way, lemme know when you’ll take $40 for it.

Feel good about yourself?

Second question, what level is required? Can I just do oupv 6pack or would I need to go all the way to masters?

Required for ?

With a 6 pack you can charter  for hire up to 6 people

When I took my course I fount this gentleman's channel extremely helpful

He has basically every class session filmed and does a great job teaching. I would think for an online class these would be invaluable

I think I remember seeing 1-6 people offshore trips in the 3000 range which would be pretty close. We maybe could get a group together next year. I have always wanted to go but getting 6 people was difficult

Cornelius would a 6 man private still shake out to be about 550 a person?

Wooooooof sorry my man. Be sure to put them on blast
