I agree with Rick on his suggestion I got a p66 and it is perfect for trolling and I was impressed last week I used it perch fishing and it did a pretty good job of picking them up even when they were pretty tight to the bottom. I was a little worried about not having chirp but the p66 did just fine for me . I had to do a little adjusting to switch from trolling to perch fishing but it did a nice job for sure. Way way better than the original transducer that came with my unit. Again thank you Rick for your help with it.

Fishing the Oak
bluegiller replied to SmilinEd1's topic in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)
I think one reason you see it more from the oak than other ports is we seem to have a great late summer offshore fishery. Some years we have good fishing inshore but on years with crazy winds we spend most of later summer offshore. Alos the lake bottom seems to flatten out and not change as fast once you get to 300 fow. So the north lines seem easier. that's just my take on it. I have fished up and down the lake shore, but live right here at the oak so maybe I am biased but this area seems to have the best summer offshore fishing on Lake ontario. From here to rochester seems like the prime area in summer. -

Be carful some muzzle loaders require back ground checks bc they can be converted to center-fire . Some cva, some Thompson centers all encores and the tradition nitro fires are a few. So better check before you sell one online. I work in the firearms industry and trust me the laws are very confusing. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

best strategy when Lake O flips for salmon
bluegiller replied to Steve.e's topic in Open Lake Discussion
It's all caused by wind moving the water , so that's current.. all you have to do is go out the few days after when it's all getting straighted out and put a probe out troll all different directions with out changing your speed over ground and you will see how much the water is moving to be tit back to the normal temps Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app -
best strategy when Lake O flips for salmon
bluegiller replied to Steve.e's topic in Open Lake Discussion
Yes it is kind of a flip . That cold water was down deep because no where on the lake when the wind stops blowing this time of year is 44 degrees so that cold water that's now on top at he shore sure came from under some place ..so the term flip is kind of right ..yes the entire lake does not get turned up side down ..but it forces cold water that once was down deep to be on the surface. And I have seen it before when it's first happening that close to shore the surface is colder than the down temp . It can last long that way. It it happens.

They kill so many fish in the summer it's crazy. Guess back in the water they have some chance but little after being in a livewell for hours and handled over and over. Guess about the same as the salmon. Tournaments they kill them all Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Sliders vs stackers for salmon
bluegiller replied to Happyjack's topic in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?
Fixed sliders all the way ..no tangles good hook ups and you know what water your covering . These are what I use they are home made from offshore releases. Snap goes around main line , leader goes on split ring ..the clip release to main line to hold in place .. simple and very effective . And keep your cheater line short makes it easy to net fish and less tangles in the net . I do like 6 foot or less Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app -

This can also happen spooling it up if you let the line reel on the reel after it goes inside of the level wind. This gets the level wind out of line with the line on the spool easiest way to fix this is to put a good size sinker on it and the next time you go out let the line out way past where you will ever have a fish pull the drag out so say like 600 feet or so on your counter ..and then reel it back in that puts good tension on the line and saves you trying to do it at home.

Are they the old all black 47lc's or one of the newer models..have you tried to loosen the spool tension knob? It's like a cast control on a reg bait casting reel, it puts friction on the end of the shafts. It can make them reel harder don't back it off to much just a little. Try that and see if it changes anything Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
