  1. I'm a middle man. We're between Sampson and Lodi, closer to Lodi. We'll be launching at Sampson for the Derby. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  2. Yup. We'll be the guys taking the money home. Lol Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  3. No. Jim Mead Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  4. Add "Rod Father" to the list. It'll be a good opportunity to see where the fish are and what they want to hit on. Jim
  5. This weekend may be tough going with the amount of logs, railroad ties, chunks of building material, and other wood floating on Seneca Lake. It's a mess. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  6. Seneca is a mess. There is a lot of big stuff out there that could do serious damage to boats. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  7. We already have high water. If we get another 3" of rain, that in itself may be a problem. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  8. When folks do go out you'll need to watch for debris on the lake. The big storm had to have carried some big chunks downstream to Seneca Lake.
  9. Where can we get info on that Cayuga tournament? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  10. I'd be in for a big fish Friday. Not for any lure limits though. Last year we got a 12 lb Brown the Monday before the Derby. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  11. There's a lot of truth in that. We used to go from one stream to the next dipping smelt. Now the creeks are seriously posted. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  12. Last year we couldn't fish the derby. We went out the weekend before and caught a 12 lb Brown. Hope to do that during the derby this year. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  13. Yup that's her. Lol Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  14. I've heard of WD-40 used the same way. Also said to be fish oil based. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  15. I used some kind of trout attractor scent years back. It took a lot of of scrubbing to get that nasty smell off my fingers. I can't say on here what it smelled like, but it wasn't good, I'll tell ya that.
  16. We'll be out there aboard Rod Father, our 21' Thompson Cuddy soft top. We fish out of Lodi or Sampson. Hopefully we get some warm rain and nice days to get the water temp on the rise by then. I got a report last weekend the temp all around Lodi was 37.5 degrees. Jim
  17. Ya long gone. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  18. Figures they had to be getting money out of us one way or another. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  19. Seneca was 37.5 Friday around Lodi. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  20. I googled how to get a DOT number. We can go online or call a phone number. The DOT number is free. What it does is give the government yet another way to know what we are doing and where. Of course they have "safety regulations" for us to follow. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  21. I'll go there Monday and find out. Wish I heard this before. I was just there Friday to renew plates on the trailers and motorcycles. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  22. Yesterday I received a call from a fellow charter Captain. He had trailered his boat to town to gas it up. When leaving town he was stopped by the cops for a DOT check. They informed him that because he uses the boat to make money, he must have DOT numbers on his truck. They also said all these guys pulling landscaping trailers, or hauling amish equipment, or anything where a guy makes money pulling a trailer has to have a DOT number. So where do I get a DOT number from? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  23. I can remember raising my net and having the water freeze as soon as it touched the air. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  24. An old timer once told me the creek water temp needs to be 50 degrees for smelt to run. Not sure if I believe that. Smelt are few and far between these days.
  25. Another good spot is to run planer boards along the edge of the drop off around the north end of the lake. The shallow water warms quickly and browns move in on the bait. Just follow the top edge of the bowl around the end of deep water. Later in the day put a dodger and peanut on the down rigger and catch lakers on the deep side of the bowl.
