calcutta administrative fee
hookmeup replied to hillbilly71's topic in Tournament Talk, Shows, Events & Seminars
I also fished that tournament. Couldn’t agree more. That is total BS. Captains should just do it on their own if that’s going to be the new standard. I actually liked the two day format though!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United -

Wilson Harbor Invitational Update
hookmeup replied to dreamsteelie's topic in Tournament Talk, Shows, Events & Seminars
I have only fished this event for the last 5 years and have noticed a decline. Obviously you have your “mainstays” but there seems to be a lot less people around in general. I to agree that lakers should not be part of the tournament, maybe they think it will kill “less kings with the declining stock programs”? It’s a salmon tournament, may the best team win!!! As far as the observer, it’s a shame that this actually has to be a topic of conversation, but i can attest that most of the observers that have been on our boat (not just in the WHI) have had no idea what they are doing, or what they are even looking for. Alot of them just seem to be thrown on a boat last minute. I would say 1) no observers and each team that finishes in the $ has to take a lie detector (no matter who it is) not sure what it would cost or how much time it would take. I would actually rather see the $100 that we typically give the observer used for something relative to the tournament than just “paying joe schmoe who was begged to fill an open observer spot and could care less about being there. Maybe $50 of it goes to pay for the lie detector and $50 goes into a calcutta? There would be many option. Or 2) the entry team itself actually has to provide an observer and not just have one appointed or found by someone in the tournament. Tall Tails, I wasn’t involved when this tournament was in its infant stages bit hear people say all the time that it was awesome. What was so different then that made it better? Why have people stopped fishing it? -
I thought the same thing when i first saw them. I’ve been running them for 3 years now without a single problem. I don’t charter but i fish alot. I run them on everything except my divers. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Trouthumter24. I live in Niagara county and hunt Niagara and orleans counties mostly. Verizon seems to work best where i am, i think on their website they had a map showing coverages for the two carriers. I bought mine from cabelas because they give you 90 days to return items.

Frogger. I think you are probably asking so you could have the camera send a picture to confirm it’s working? You cannot ping the camera to just take a picture immediately but, there is way to confirm the camera is working. From the app you can set the camera to time lapse mode (in this mode you tell the camera what time to rake a picture and how frequently to do it). So technically you could have it send you a test pic once a day or as many tomes as you would like. You just can’t trigger it instantaneously at the push of a single button.

After much research, went with MoultrieMobile cellulars. Bought 6 with the $50 mail in rebates. Have had these in the field since Oct 1st. They work awesome. Very easy set ups. They are sensitive to light and temp change, so there is a learning curve to positioning. Settings are easily changeable from the app. Many different data plans. Each camera is $10/month for 850 pictures. Cabelas had another special running with the rebate brings the camera price to $99 These things are great, especially for those areas that are a couple miles off the road. You just need to pick verizon or at&t. Has nothing to do with your current cell phone plan (which I originally thought it did) you can use both if one cell company has better service in a certain area.
