  1. Went out Sandy Monday and the fleas are there also. They were mixed with the cotton and were a major P.I.T.A. to get off the line . 2 salmon one 16 the other 9.5 ,175 feet both on FF one rigger parked at 130( current blow back ,actual depth was about 105-44deg) and the other a dipsey with UV flasher and green atomic fly out 175 on 2 setting. Lost one also on same dipsey set. The dipsey fish was definitely out of temp. 16 lb female had eggs in her. Strange?
  2. Call tom at east fork marina, 2 min from launch. I'm pretty sure he'll let you park it there for a modest fee. Nice guy and one of the top mechanics around. Might have an empty slip for the night if you're lucky.
  3. I have picked up a couple on green uv rotating flasher with green atomic fly on a dipsey rod and I have been having good success with a 6-8ft cheater attached to cable and the main fish line with a rubber band located 8-10 feet above bottom spoon. I use a 3in spoon for the cheater similar in color to the larger bottom spoon. Bottom spoon is 15-20 feet back from ball. I also tend to put a rotating triangle flasher 4-6 feet back attached to the ball's rear loop, added attraction that works often.
  4. try the ACBS, google . Old wood boat club, they have a classified section.
  5. I use a dry marker and just write down the line out and settings next to the pole holders on the top of the gunwales and transome. Just erase with a cloth.
  6. Until you get a victrola, try dropping the wire into a 5 gal bucket or cut the bottom 2ft or so off a garbage can, it will be a little wider and coil better.
  7. Old school was to hang a lantern off the side and sew on a sawbellie and drop it ~ 5-10 ft below the school of bait that will show up.
  8. Hey people, anybody out there ever go or still go on prairie dog shoots? Looking for info on outfitters or self hunts in Kansas or Montana for now. Thanks.

    I believe these aluminum boats have metal stringers, except for the front engine mount which is a small block of wood attached to metal. My starcraft islander has such set up. The transom wood should be looked at. If it was stored covered all the time (and in the slip) the transom bottom should be OK.
  10. Todd, what is the magnification of the scope?
  11. I have a place on Keuka and a walleye carcass washed up on my shore last year. It appeared to be about 15-16 inches but it was only a head and skin. It looked like it was filleted. Maybe caught somewhere else and brought home and cleaned. Surprised the heck out of me, didn't know they were in there. Fished that lake since I could hold a pole, never caught one.
  12. Hey guys, is the launch open on Sandy creek? If not is East Fork still launching?
  13. Boga and that other one mentioned are somewhat expensive. I bought on just like the boga with weight scale and ruler for about 12.00 on line. can't remember where, just search fish grips and you'll probably find it. They do work great with the rope.
  14. Ditto on Harvey. He just got some good lead!!!
  15. Last time I talked to Mike( Tom's help) he said 10 bucks. About 3 weeks ago.
  16. I think there's a launch over on empire that is open.
