  1. Steve, if you have the carb looked at by a professional, at least you can rule that out. I had similar problems as you. The engine would start very easily but with the engine warmed up and running under load it would choke and die. It was the carb. Obviously I can't say for sure that your problem is the same but the behavior of my engine was the same. I highly recommend Tom Toal in Ontario, NY for all carb work. Hopefully he is still taking on new work. He is the GM engineer that worked for GM for something like 40-50 years. He is the engineer that actually designed the carbs for GM. He knows everything there is to know about carbs. Quick turn around time, very good pricing, and all of the stories come for free (and he has many). Tom Toal 1232 Paddy Lane Ontario, NY 14519 585-230-9616 Best of luck to you.
  2. Nice! In a lot of places, you do not see that many greys (although they are there).
  3. Thanks Rob
  4. Can anyone point me to the official press release that states that the 2022 show is cancelled?
  5. Chris, said like a true gentleman, which you truly are. This discussion is like watching a train wreck. You hate what is happening but somehow you just can't look away. There are better forums than an outdoor forum to discuss devisive topics like politics (which this largely revolves around) and other topics that drive wedges between us rather than unite us (e.g. LOU). And before any of you say "hey, you don't have to look, you don't have to participate", you are correct. Hopefully all future posts about politics and the pandemic will have appropriate titles so I can opt-out, train wreck or no train wreck. Looking forward to the Niagara show where hopefully nobody tries to push their personal agenda down our throats. Best wishes to all for a safe and successful 2022 fishing season and reaping the benefits of additional salmon stocking in the coming years. Sent from my SM-G998U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

  7. Love it! What magnification?

    Wow, what a story. A life lesson for sure. Hopefully this story can save someone else from injury (or possibly worse). It is easy to get a little complacent at times after doing the same thing for many years without an incident. Glad you are OK and back in the saddle!

    Hi Chris, Many great patterns here (which I mostly have already). How much for the Trollers Handbook and Craftsman screwdriver? Sent from my SM-G998U using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  11. Thanks Ray! Can't wait to install it in the Spring. Long winter ahead... Pleasure doing business with you, Take care, Tom T

  14. BTW, purple was the color for us on Sat., 50-80' down over 150-250' deep. Sent from my SM-G998U using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  15. Bill, both very nice fish caught during a difficult bite. Well done! I was timid about fishing that far out of temp. I guess the trick, like with hunting sometimes, is to target a different species. Go deer hunting and shoot a bear...go turkey hunting and shoot a deer. From now on I am fishing for perch or sheepshead. Sent from my SM-G998U using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  16. Hi Chris, Perfect. I'll have cash. See you then! Tom
  17. Hi Chris, I'll take the 8" Spin Dr's. Sent from my SM-G975U using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  18. Next time, I will get the gel. And yes, gloves are required. It is a strong formula.
  19. I used Starbright Instant Hull Cleaner. Works great but unlike On and Off, it is not a gel and isn't scented. On the good side, you can dilute it to make it last longer if needed. Good luck with the new-to-you boat! Sent from my SM-G975U using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  20. I heard you have to use a special knot with the D rig. Problem is, he won't tell us what it is.
  21. Congrats Rick and as always, thanks for the detailed report! But I gotta say, you guys are killing me. 2 years ago it was Carbon 14. Last year is was DUV 2-Face and everybody sold out. This year it is Rod Father...next year Double Harpoon Ghillie Monster... If I could just get a Gary-D, even at $100, it would save me a ton of money. As it is, I need to buy a dingy to pull behind the boat just to carry the lures and equipment. (I know...catch the fish...or catch the fisherman) My guess is that you would still do well with just a randomly twisted paper clip on the end of the line. Spending time on the water...can't buy that, gotta earn it. Joking aside, thanks again and best of luck this season.
  22. Appreciate the response. Thanks!
  23. Thanks for the clarity and additional insight. I too am an indepenant. I don't think "elephant hunting" or "donkey hunting" should be mixed with fishing, but that's me. I understand peoples' convictions run deep, I just wish devisive topics would be left at home so we could all "just get along".
  24. REELDRAG2, I want to speak, I have much to say But in this world, there is no way… You look for friends and advice on this forum And then claim the members here have poor decorum This group of fishers are chock full of so much info Sk8man, Yankee, Whaler1, Frogger and NymphO It’s mostly the fishing that keeps us together Both when it’s a good day on the water or tough weather It’s unfortunate that religion and politics can keep us apart Right from the beginning, before we even start Perhaps the time will come when we can bite our tongue Not like when we were 20 and oh so young For me these members are mostly first class Though, perhaps, a few may be a little crass My guess is the time will come when you will need a “fish worker” And you’ll come back to this site…if even just a lurker Best of luck to you
