Good luck. Looks like most are near the big river, 70-80 FOW

Asking for a friend. Does anyone on here have a Baha Cruisers 230 Sport fisherman? Can you tell me the fuel tank size? I googled it and couldn’t find it and he doesn’t have any manuals on the boat he just bought it

I have the exact same boat and I believe my tank is 60 gal

Yes, fish are headed to the Salmon, Oswego and Black Rivers. Fishing is good all along those. 

I actually leave a little tail of the mesh and put my hook through that. It's been working for 40 years.

Sportsmansguide also had them. That's all I run and love them

Same mounting area but manual and mounted to the hard top.

I run 10' Eagle Claws. For the money I don't think you can beat them.

I had that problem with my son and found them at Sportsmanguide.com

Amen Brothers, I’m 27 years in local 461, 39 years in my town volunteer department. I’d love to meet you guys sometime and swap war stories. Stay safe out there!

Jimski2 I’m not going to debate you here since this is not the place. I would however love to sit down with you and discuss over a beer. You’re way off base in this in more ways than one. I have to believe you when you say you have over 30 years of experience but I have my doubts as to how much hands on experience and not classroom.

Yeh, I was looking for you labor day weekend. I thought maybe you were running out of Oswego. 3 and out for me this year. Still had great fun. Good luck my friend, I'll be in the neighborhood, lol.

Only 3 trips for me too and the third hasn’t happened yet. Busy at work, got married again and weather wasn’t too cooperative when I did have time. Next year hoping more. Stay well my friend.

All is good here, hope all is good with you. Missed seeing you this year, kind of off season though. Going up next week for one last ride and bringing her home.

I have Berts and no complaints. Never used Cannons but know guys that do and no complaints there either. 

Sk8man, BC FD and Low Baller thank you! Low Baller for the original post and Sk8man and BC FD for yor replies. Nothing annoys me more than the arm chair experts that tell emergency services how the job should have been done after the fact. They knew this was nothing like they had ever experinced before, they knew it was a huge risk, they knew they might not make it out but they also knew there were thousands that needed help and they were going to do their best because that's what they do. Yes there was a large loss of life taken that day but there also was  an etremely larger number of lives saved because of their efforts. God bless those brave men and women!  

Friday looks good so far, saturday could blow up in the afternoon a little. I'm going up to fish tomorrow and Friday

I was just reading fish caught off Oswego still had small firm eggs. I hope it is because right now should be very good this time of year.

The east end usually is decent through most of September. Tough year so far this year though 

Back in the late 80's we were fishing off Sandy Pond in bright sunlight. All day towards the Canadian side there was a front moving NE and watched 8 come down and go out of site. It was something I'll never forget and well worth watching.

Always pour some beer overboard to offer the fish gods a little sip of the first beer you open

Here’s a chart for reference but Pa223 is right. Fish the marks now

I will run one meat rig. Sometimes I'll stack a spoon over the meat or F/F. Let the fish tell you. If nothing happens change until you get bites.

I run my rigs 4-5' back

Outstanding, there's nothing better than sharing and teaching our youth about the outdoors. Great job!

K thank u very much! I don’t have any way to tell water temp! Any suggestions? Fish the marks?

The marks of the fish on your fish finder. Whatever depth they're showing at fish that but keep in mind you'll need to put out about 10-15' more cable depending on ball weight and speed to compensate for blow back.

That's been happening for the past 2-3 weeks for some reason. No problem on the computer.
