I went to high school in Marcellus and that is a great place to have kids grow up in. 15-20 mins from the city and 10 mins from Otisco and skaneatatlas lakes.

@gmbeagler44 when you get into them they are a blast. Just a pain if you try to net them. Make sure you get heavy duty gloves and if you choose to net them, the wider the holes on the net the better

Thanks guys. Yea these fish are a blast. I got back to back 47s before this one, and they really do fight good

Thanks guys. Berk, I sent you a PM. Generally they will hit cranks if you can find them.

PS: obviously this was not caught in the finger lakes, since I said it was in Canada, but I didn't know where to post it so that's why it's here in the Finger lakes forum.

Hey guys, I got a 55 1/2 inch longnose gar the other day in Canada, which came up just shy of the Canadian record in weight, even while it happened to be 5 inches longer. Regardless of if it would have been a record or not, I wanted to release it. So my question is, does anyone know of anyone who would do a replica mount of a gar that size? Only places I know now will do it for around $1000. It's truly a special fish, and a once in a lifetime catch, so I want to get a replica made sometime within the next year if I can find someone who does good work for a reasonable price.

@Jhettenbaugh I was up in Canada. Going to try for them on otisco this weekend.[mention=140588]lyk2fish[/mention] are you referring to the causeway or by the dam or marina?

Managed to get into the walleye while on vacation for the long weekend. They were biting throughout the day and into the evening on jerkbaits. Here's a few of the ones I got into

Someone on the Oneida lake diehards Facebook forum got a 41" from the rocks by the dam this morning

Erie is on fire now for schooled up smallmouth. Fished out of Buffalo and Got 30 on Thursday, one of the most fun times fishing I've ever had

Throwing a net in water and waiting for it to fill up, is not fishing. Not even a comparison.

Very good glasses. They actually sponsor my bass fishing team at the University at Buffalo. Real high quality glasses

Took a trip down to Florida for spring break and thought I'd share a few pics. Spring is not too far away. Can't wait to get back on the NY waters

It had sound for me

Great video, nice job! Some beautiful pike

If you go into the outlet it's good bullhead action as well

Not sure how far you're willing to go but Owasco is tough to beat for spring panfishing in my opinion. Main body can get wavy, but if you fish the docks on the north west side Of the lake you will get big sunfish and gills along with a smattering of perch and bullhead. As a bonus I've noticed the panfish are all very pretty colored there. Plus there's always giant schools of fish to see which I'm sure he'll enjoy

Switching hands would be my downfall to trying to learn righty. Especially since I'm used to thumbing the spool with my right hand


Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Just curious what you guys use on your baitcasters. I'm left handed, and use both left handed reels on spinning and casting. I've considered trying to become "fluent" with both hands, as it seems like everywhere is always sold out of left handed reels.

What do you guys use? Anyone try switching over?

That's awesome. Didn't realize the current was that strong there

Skook, I'm a "college kid" and have fished with Justin multiple times. Highly recommended. He knows his stuff, and the outings are fun
