  1. Spoons??? What was your trolling setup??? Just wondering i fish up north on the Indian river lakes an kind of run off finger lakes reports at times
  2. Hey man stay at the 1800 house on the salmon river. Very nice spot and I'm not 100% but I think they've got a wifi. You could park your boat there and drive to the salmon river launch or Mexico launch and by the time u get here you won't have to go far in a boat for slob kings! They should be stacked off the river by then as long as weather stays the way it's predicted
  3. I always tell people paypal the money and I literally have them on then phone at post office or ups to give then tracking number so it's safe on both ends. Tracking numbers instantly go through and so does PayPal payments. I won't let it out of my hands till the money is in the account. If people don't like that well then there is something shady going on and I can wait for someone else to buy it. That sucks tho man. Always someone out there looking to get one over on you unfortunately
  4. As far as worm colors chartreuse n bright stuff on real sunny days an more natural crayfish or dark colors on the cloudy days. Don't get 4 inch worms they don't catch fish. Need the big 5-6 inch ones
  5. Can also try trolling some mini bomber a's in the white color. There crankbaits. Hammer smallies trolling them in the deeper water along long point and out by cherry island and shangri-la boat launch
  6. We use the 5 inch wave worms with the weighted hook when we go for bass. A good spot is the whole shoreline along point salubrious, also deep into griffins bay is really good and directly across from the chaumont boat from the bridge up to the point is usually productive for bass. For pike you want to troll stick baits out along long point state park shoreline in the 10-20 ft of water there. Haven't been out there much this year but those r usually good areas to focus on. Cherry island is awesome for big bass to on the backside of the island
  7. 7 ft waves in Henderson last weekend I don't think anyone was out there
  8. And feathers if you want to specifically target browns I would definitely fish Mexico in the 70-100 ft of water anywhere from 10 ft off the bottom to 40 ft below the surface.
  9. Hey salmon freak! We have a cabin right in pottersville too! Schroon is an awesome lake although I've never had much luck with lls there I have caught some 5 lb lakers. You guys run spoons for lakers there or what! I don't get over there enough to figure the place out. I'm there only a few times a year. Let me know man private message me I'd love to get a schroon lake report as there definitely aren't any lake George or schroon reports on here!
  10. This makes a bit more sense as we were running mags over the weekend. I just bought some 001 tho so ill try not running the snubber with them and see how it works out.
  11. Hahaha I like the toilet paper analogies. And yes there actually is a correct way to use toilet paper. However it was shafted onto the cardboard core, you want to run it off exactly opposite. Haha but yeah we had a huge rip on the dipsey and lost a fly. So I was thinking well the snubber would help with that for sure. I guess it's definitely a preference then. Ill run one rod with and one without and compare the ratio of fish to the boat. So to the guys that are not running snubbers though, what pound test are you running from you dipsey to flasher? I'm think inning your not running the snubber you had better have some serious line to withstand a hard hit
  12. So I've got one party saying no we don't run snubbers lose fish. Got other people saying run snubbers or your losing gear. I'm sure there has been debate on here over this before but I would like to hear it first hand. I just bought snubbers for my dipseys and buddy I fish with says there junk and we will lose more than we will catch
  13. Shoot up to the north dunes they were getting them there pretty good 2 days ago
  14. So the problem goes like this. Boat started first thing in the morning. Father in law told me he had trouble night before turning it over but he jiggled some of the battery terminals and hit ignition and it turned over ( whether this did anything I doubt it). Boat was running in the morning then stalled went to restart, nothing, nobody home. I looked for loose connections and there were none. Boat has power to everything just ignition will not do a thing. I was told its one of two things. Either cellunoid went or its the actual ignition that is shot. I've never done either and I do not know how to check to see which it could possibly be to start to diagnose and fix the problem. Any tips or info would be great. We went to chaumont marina where father in law pays to keep the boat winterized and stored and they pretty much told him to pound sand there too busy. Understandable, but as a son that comes from a father who owns a recycling company I know to never tell somebody no especially when there already a customer of 7 years. Father In law is sitting it out and waiting for them to call him and I told him you just Wasting your season. If it were my boat it would have been out of the water and trailered to someone instantly to have fix. Not mine so I'm not trying to step on his toes but yeah, I need to get this fixed so I can take the family out fishing before the summer is over. Thanks much. It's a 20 ft sunbird Neptune by the way and I just put a brand new battery in it
  15. I am looking to buy a hawk td for my smaller boat. Surely putting an expensive speed/temp gauge setup would prolly be over kill for a 14 ft boat trolling for small lakers, bows and landlocks. If you have one and want to sell it please text call 484-896-0242 thanks much
  16. Can't beat the price. I've got 48 glo bugs. 5 light blue bling bug size 8, 6 dark blue bling bug size 8, 2 Oregon cheese size 10, 5 chartreuse size 10, 9 dark roe size 10, 10 shrimp pike size 10, 11 salmon egg bling bug size 10. Please message or call/text 484-896-0242. Season will be here before you know it
  17. That fog was so damn sketchy, we had some close run ins as well dude fishing off Stoney. It was horrible. I'm so glad we didn't run out to salmon water. You forget to note the 4-5 footers and occasional 6 rolling in also. It was bad new bears out there.
  18. I don't have a fishfinder this year on the bigger boat, so using the navionics app is crucial to getting out around shoals on chaumont bay, also helps me find points and drop offs to fish I wouldn't know we're there. That app is spot on for trolling too with speed indicator. The speed is pretty damn close to what your going on the top
  19. Did u hit em right in henderson harbor or put past the island? Just wondering I always want to take my smaller boat out but I can't risk my life going out past the islands. Hahaha no fish is worth that
  20. So this basically will just stay 20 ft or so above your rigger ball and hover up an down. Kind of get it now. Fish will hit that, release the clip from your rigger ball and slide back to the next spoon, so I'm assuming you have to crank your ass off in the beginning to pick up the slack.
  21. So the slider is actually on your mainline. Got it. So this sounds as if it could make an absolute mess when your being in a fish that hits the slider.
