Man what a fish, great story! Sounds like you guys were calm, cool and collected, the recipe for getting a trophy in the boat!

Boom, what a bird! Thanks for sharing

That Kittery Trading post is an awesome store..... Was my second trip back there last year from the early 90's when it was out of the house there. Now its bigger than a Bass Pro on Steroids......... Thanks for the info.

Sorry to hear the struggle Les, that lake is indeed an up and down lake from one day to the next. He's something strange bobby told me yesterday, while going out on a dock to do some work he noticed 2 nice Browns 4-5 lbs hovering in the shade. When they saw him the darted out away from the dock but quickly shot back when they hit the sun. Almost like vampires. Back to the dock they went. With him standing there. Water was crystal clear.

Gill, you might want to check around to see if Boat Doctors or anyone else in that area had a video running. You never know when someone is running a camera. Sorry to hear about this, it sucks big time. Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United

Just to add to the positive string of customer service out of Krenzers. Got a new shorelander, was a little too wide with the axle, took care of me by swapping it for me. What a great group to deal with. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Thanks TT. Incidentally I was able to meet up with him and his dad this weekend and had a blast from the past, we rolled around on the mat back in the day. His dad was one heck of a coach. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Ed, if you had room, maybe someone else suggested as well, sorry if they did, but how about next to the yellow placard for boat limitations. At an angle facing upwards with the back (top) against the carpet almost under the dash where it's out of the weather or mostly. That's where I ended up with mine.

Well said "Bout".

Love it, I was thinking to myself, omg I gots to get down there and see this guy get his head handed to him....... Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United

I hope to possibly get in one of those sometime soon, and I see both sides, but as an amateur, ( I don't fish for income) tournaments should be geared towards the participant's and the level they can compete in. If that means its an open division, that means its open to anyone, If tournaments want to have an amateur division, they should have criteria in it that states your just that and no more. Yea I know, if you dont like it don't fish it and that little boats can win big agains big boats, In reality though, the participants and the income of such tournaments is what drives these to be successful. How many amateurs are you losing of not entering vs charter captains ( professionals) of not getting in because they worry about being shamed if they enter the amature division. Probably not too many but that's just a guess. I have yet to get in one and like I said hope to soon, I really am not out to try and show someone up that makes a living doing it nor am I saying I could, I just want to be able to go out have fun, be part of the crowd, interact, and say hey, damn that was cool, Id do that again.
