good jobHere are mine now after adding the nut for weight Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

This way works also I didn't make them up the came with the planer boards I purchased from someone One problem I had with the releases stock was on a windy day or if board goes dead on a fast turn your mono line from your rod can get hung up in the slot you use to clip the release into the planer board line This gentleman cut that part if the release right off I have some hex head nuts in my hand right now that I'm going to add with a press fit for added weight Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

All rods were firing, planers and riggers Apelina diamonds on the riggers and Thundersticks,Yozuri and bombers off boards Hot lures of the day were Billy Baroo,metallic rainbow and silver purple My buddy with an Atlantic Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I agree but again we can chose not to enter I miss the ESLO days but at least we have something which is still better than nothing at all Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Very true!

You can't win a big buck contest by entering a bull elk...the rules are the rules like um or not

Wow, it's fishing ...for some it's a business for others it's a passion and fun but this isn't the deadliest catch! I enjoy every part of the season, spring brown fishing is great, then steelhead and lakers till the kings go on the bite We need to stand together as a group not quibble over minusha. It's a fishing derby that costs $30 to enter,if you don't like the rules keep your cash in your pocket and don't enter. It's the thrill of the chase more so than winning any ways Good luck and have fun !

Thanks and yes it's been a long winters wait! Here is a picture of her semi rigged from last fall

I do think it is a good one for Great Lakes fishing,I only have one day behind it but am happy with features and function. Garmin customer service is also some thing that impressed me. That's as much as I can say to this point ...so far so good and I'm quiet pleased with my chose of the 50 DV Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Garmin delivered as promised 10 ' extension arrived Friday . 1st impressions go this unit are very good, nice selection of screens, down vue looks great reads at full throttle pre loaded map is good also

Headed out of I bay with the Penn Yan I bought end of last season after much $ and rigging got to fish off her for the 1st time. Every thing worked great and went 5 for 10 fishing ship builders to Webster Pier. Feels good to be fishing the Big O again! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

My Garmin 50 DV arrived today so I went right to hooking it up. I was less than pleased to find the transducer only has a 20' cable. I checked around for an extension and they are $90 for 10' extension cable and no one had one in stock I was ready to pack it up and return it but I called Garmin and spoke to customer service ( got right thru no waiting on hold) I told them of my displeasure and They are sending me out the extension free of charge! This was one of the reasons I chose Garmin 1st rate customer service! I'll report back after I use it a bit. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Great day of fishing for sure,thanks for the reports!

Nice brown,looks like lampreys are still an issue
