    Please don’t hold fish by the lips if releasing them. If you need to pick them up hold the tail in one hand and support the belly with the other

    Not to be too snarky, but Reel Doc has been doing it right and doing it on the lake for many years prior to posting corrective posts perhaps you should take a look at the individual you are posting about.........

     

    Nice post Doc..........

    Docks are underwater at tfalls, docks are at water level in Treman. I have been advised water levels are not peaked yet and may rise substantially more. Large amounts of debris in the lake please be advised to be careful!!!

    Cayuga Event on 8/14 Safety Notice

    in Finger Lakes Discussion

    Posted

    Both events went off with no injuries only had to stop a couple boats that were approaching the line at high speed. I saw several fishing in the course and left you all to do your best to avoid each other as you all have the same rights to be there. I appreciate the comments and everyone working to share the space !

    Cayuga Event on 8/14 Safety Notice

    in Finger Lakes Discussion

    Posted

    In addition to the fishing derby out of Myers there is a Women’s Swim scheduled in the vicinity of the Ithaca Yacht Club involving 200 plus swimmers and a Cayuga Lake “SUP” cup event including 2-300 stand up paddle boarders that will be racing a course that crosses the lake between Myers and Taughannock and back again.

     

    Please be careful out fishing…if you are anywhere south of Taughannock Falls State Park it will be a very crowded morning with some 4-600 people in or on the water.

     

    There will be the Sheriff, State police, State Park Police Jet Skis, and Coast Guard Auxiliary working the events.

     

    Be safe out please.

     

    Thanks

    Cayuga Inlet

    The New York Canal Corp has marked the obstructions and bar in the channel at Ithaca here is the official notice...

     

    Notice to Mariners

     

    Cayuga-Seneca Canal, Cayuga Lake – Ithaca

     

    May 25, 2021

     

    Mariners are advised of shoaling in the Cayuga Lake Inlet in Ithaca that has reduced depth of the channel due to silt buildup. This area is south of lighted aid to navigation Fl "147" at the north end of the breakwater. Red and green auxiliary and danger buoys are marking the narrowed navigation channel.

     

    Boaters should use caution when traversing this area.

     

    A chart showing the affected area can be found at http://www.canals.ny.gov/navinfo/charts/14786cs1.png

    Thanks for letting us know.  Didn't know about the new cutoff law... may have to get a longer lanyard, kinda hard to fish solo being attached only a foot from the helm.

    Motorboats

    Brianna's Law
    If you were born on or after May 1, 1996 you will need a boating safety certificate.
    Under a new law known as Brianna's Law, all motor boat operators born on or after Jan. 1, 1993 will need a boating safety certificate beginning in 2020.
    Those born on or after Jan. 1, 1988 will need a boating safety certificate beginning in 2022.
    Those born on or after Jan. 1, 1983 will need a boating safety certificate beginning in 2023.
    Those born on or after Jan. 1, 1978 will need a boating safety certificate beginning in 2024.
    All motor boat operators regardless of age will need a boating safety certificate beginning in 2025.


    Lanyard does not apply while trolling, slow speed ops, launching etc

    The Auxiliary is resuming inspections by appointment for the season.  The first date available will be Sunday of Memorial Day weekend.  I will be doing them at Treman Marina if you are interested let me know and I will book an appointment for you.  I'm starting at 2PM Sunday in 20 minute increments.

     

    Just PM me if you want it done.

     

    Mark

     

    PS: Two new big changes... Briannas Law  you need to have a boaters safety card, and if your boat is equipped with a cutoff you must use it on Federal waters which includes Cayuga, Seneca, Oneida.

     

    Safe Boating.
