  2. if you dont find anyone local,i recommend tuna toms reel trouble,very reasonable and quick turn around.

  4. hmmm,i have not received my invite yet!!!!
  5. am i missing something,i dont see any post for spro swivels???
  6. if any of you guys stay at mays polynesian motel in scriba,you will need to find another motel to stay at.article on newz junky says a fire started in the mini-mart,but quickly spread to the motel.owners of the motel said that they rent rooms to alot of fisherman throughout the year.
  7. great job guys,with the way this winter is going,you could be doing that all winter long!
  8. yes,his name is pete and he also owns and i believe his son runs adirondack mountain sports down your way.
  9. thats about the only place to launch and even there you have to fall off the pad to get deep enough.i may try to head out on saturday.
  10. lake is down 3 to 4 feet,not sure if you will be able to get your boat off the trailer
  11. we have been trolling 4th lake last 2 weeks,no pike but some nice lakers.we only got 6" in inlet.
  12. last year we had close to 2 feet of snow,lakes were froze and snowmobiles every where,this year,boat is in the water and we will be fishing the next 3 days,loving every minute!!!!
  13. they stock fish in some of the lakes up here in the adirondacks from helicopters.
  14. nice job guys,thanks for the report.
  15. i hear ya,which ever brand you go with,they are much better then control cables for getting your speed just right.
  16. steve,is that a 4-stroke motor???i have had the control king on the boat for 2 years now.the control dial started to "act up" at the end of this season,when you go to adjust the dial the rpms jump up and down,making it tough to get speed right.i have not called the company yet to see if it can be fixed.also,dont try to cut corners like f.t. said,the guy who installed mine,took 12 volt power from the starter solinoid on the motor and when you tried to raise engine rpms it would make the servo motor go crazy,so make sure you run power wires to your battery.
  17. just booked a room for the salmon school at the quality hotel and inn at the falls.we stayed there last year,it is right across the street from the convention center.it is a nice place and has a bar and restaurant.i checked a few places like expedia,hotels.com,and travelocity and the prices were all the same.2 double beds with a non refundable payment was 58 bucks and a refundable booking was 72 bucks.a queen bed was 10 bucks more per night.
  18. ill take them shipped for 80 bucks.
  19. i hear ya,back to reality here too,3" of snow over the weekend.
  20. nice job dan,we took a trip down last week to the atlantic highlands and jumped on a party boat friday night,we didnt get any stripers,but it was great being out on the water at night in shorts in the middle of novemeber!!!probably our last trip till the spring run in the hudson.
  21. last year was our first time and it was great.looking forward to going again this year.we booked our motel room early and got a great price,like 70 bucks a night.i posted the info.here on lou and some members tried booking the same motel a few weeks later and they paid over 100 bucks a night.so if you know you are going.book early!!!
  22. if you have not changed lower unit oil,you should do that NOW,before winter.if something is leaking and you have water in the gear case,it will crack and you will be replacing the whole lower unit in the spring.
