  1. I am putting together an order in a few days so I figured I would just see if any LOU members had what I need so I can help their bank account instead of a superstore. I am looking for 24 or 36 inch tracks. Also looking for rod holders and downrigger bases for cannon mag 10s for the tracks. Looking to get a ratchet style rod holder. Also looking for a dual planer mast manual not electric. Thanks in advance you can shoot me a PM or Text at (908) 442-6038

  2. I agree with you guys its interesting to me that a major sponsor won't step up and do something for trout and salmon on the Great Lakes. I always thought it would be neat to do the qualifying events on Lake o and Lake Michigan and have a championship for all the teams at one location and have a overall champion. Maybe a championship on Lake Huron? or Superior? 

    Boat ramp drama alone would be worth the price of admission

  3. My sediments exactly. I just spent a week in Oswego. I never fished there before on my own and each day was still a learning experience but I managed A king or two along with a Coho or two every day. I also managed a steelhead and 2 atlantics. The only thing that avoided my line was a brown. I love it there and will be returning as much as I get the chance. Everyone was extremely helpful.

We booked a cottage and I spent the week trolling out of Oz. I was ecstatic with how my week played out. I fished Last Wed thru this Tuesday. I was out on the water every morning at 5:30am and fished till pretty much dark everyday. I caught fish everyday and never returned without 1 or two and a couple of days three in the box. When I would get back to the dock everyone was down and sour at the worlds because the fishing "sucked".  Let me tell you I know more then most that each and everyday is a blessing. Tomorrow is NEVER promised and any day that I can spend doing battle with even one 20 plus pound king is a gift.  I trolled from 50 foot out to 600 depending on the weather as my small boat is restricted to the confines of the wind. In the seven days I managed a bunch of adult kings with some juveniles mixed in, Coho up to 11 pounds, My girlfriend caught a beautiful Steelhead, and I managed to boat an Atlantic. I know many of you think the holiday weekend was a loss but I had the best trip ever in my 30 plus years of fishing. Sometimes the quality of the trip isn't necessarily the numbers you catch. I spent some great time on the water with great friends and met several more during my weeks stay. 

  5. Hey all, Up for Sale is my 08 Yamaha 4 Stroke. Motor is in great condition with very very low hours. It is electric start with remote steer. It was bought to use as a kicker but i never needed it because the 115 four stroke trolled down enough. This is a freshwater used only engine and has spent most of its life on a stand in the garage. The motor is in NJ but we are up in Oswego most weekends till the fish stop biting. This motor will run 1.9 to 2.5 mph all day on drops of gas. you cant yell if it is running other the checking the water stream. Please TEXT or CALL (908) 442-6038  for more info.

  7. Nope.  Not for me. Install metal rocket launchers in there and you may be fine. There is a nasty amount of stress put on those down rigger bases.  Personally speaking I would reinstall new launchers then I would just get some quick disconnect rigger mounts and bolt them on with a metal backer plate.  

  8. I took a piece of 4" pvc about 30 inches long. glued and capped one end. Took a large diameter pool noodle and cut it at the same length. I stick two of the hooks from the treble into the foam and  wrap my pre rigged flies and leader around the foam nice and neat. stick a toothpick in to hold the loop at the end of the leader. I can fit a whole bunch of pre rigs on the foam. Then I slide them into the PVC pipe and loose cap the other end. They come out in perfect condition every time.
