  1. this is what it looked like last weekend,not sure what the last couple days did,not going to be any fishing this weekend even if it is open.hopefully next weekend!!!!
  2. hey glen,we saw the footprints in the marina,kinda sickening to see all the snow and ice,looking like a late start like last year.first two boats in last year,april 6th,we got 3 inches that morning and the next day it was gone.
  3. I run the diawa spinmatic rods with okuma 15 series line counters for l.l. salmon and lakers on the local lakes here in the Adirondacks and champlain where the fish are mostly under 10 lbs.they are ultra-light "noodle"rods.i use them for riggers and board rods.
  4. are cusk and burbot the same thing?i cant find the picture on my phone,i think the wife may have taken a picture with her phone,ill post it up if she has it.
  5. guy that docks next me caught a burbot while trolling mexico bay last year,he said its the 2nd one he has caught in 30+ years fishing the lake.it was ugly!!!!!!
  6. I run the cannons on my small boat for browns and l.l.salmon.they work just fine for multiple flatline sticks or cores up to 6 colors.i have never pulled anything longer then 6 colors and have never run them in more then 2 footers.
  7. if you have the money,go for it!!!!!!!
  8. going to try one more time before putting them on ebay.99 fuel injected 25 inch shaft.they are being sold with all the controls and gauges.dont know the hours,motors ran fine when pulled off the boat last year.can be seen and compression check performed in mexico,ny.motors can be put on pallets and both motors will fit in a two place snowmobile trailer.$2,000 each or 3,500 for the pair.
  9. you can try using chunk/live herring or troll.lots of guys troll down south in the newburgh/Kingston area.we fish the catskill area and the only time we use worms is early in the season before the herring show up,but once the herring are around,thats all we use.river basin sports shop in catskill has everything you need.
  10. I repowered my boat with twin 07 250 yammies last season.bought them with 850 hours on them and put almost 300 hours on them last season.never skipped a beat,changed the oil every hundred hours or so.they .run awesome,troll awesome.i believe 08 and newer you can get the "troll control"for them,which you can increase and decrease rpms by increments of 50 through the tach.,really nice for dialing in your trolling speed
  11. 7 years on my taloras,first and only dipsy rods I have ever owned
  12. thanks to chad and everyone else who keeps this site up and running,i have learned a lot from the members on this site and have made some great friendships here as well.hey earl,nice pic.that fish wound up being the biggest caught on my boat this year,.happy new year everyone
  13. hey glen,at least your little bastards smelled good!!!!!
  14. I re-powered my boat with the same motors last winter,i have put over 200 hours on them this year and have only had to change the oil in them.great power, smooth and quiet,both running and trolling.incredible improvement from two-strokes!!!!!
  15. i have used them in front of streamer flies for land locks with some luck.
  16. hey kevin,if you can wait till friday to order an emergency handle,i think I have an extra one you can have,just have to check when I get up there Friday to see if I have it.call me over the weekend.
  17. I have never fished there,but if it’s like any other lake in the Adirondacks,plan on being on the water at sun up and being off by 9 or so,especially if you are planning to fish on the weekend,you may be better waiting till after Labor Day
  18. sticks is on the corner of rt6 and rt.104b in new haven.plenty of parking out front for trailer.it is about 4 miles from mexico point and about 10 miles from wrights in Oswego.mike and bobbi are very nice people,i have never stayed there,but have eaten there plenty of times.i would call asap,as they may already be booked for the end of august.if you stay there,you may even get a few pointers from mike!!
  19. I have a pair of scotty riggers f/s.they are still on the boat and being used.they have dual rod holders,one of which is a multi-axis on each.extendable boom,covers,locks,spare belt and some extra parts included.new cable on one last year and new cable on the other this year.they are mounted on 6" risers.which are new this year.they are a little sun faded,but everything in working order.asking $700.00.located in mexico.or I can bring them to sodus in a few weeks for the pro-am.pm me if you have any questions.
