Oh my Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app -
I would say that 70 percent of the fish I catch are all natural spawn... -
Old habits die hard

Lol seriously?? Which ?

One of these days we need to get out and play together

Lol I never put my hand in a mouth that is what pliers are for, if i screw up and let my fingers slip too far up through the gills to reach the row of teeth i regret it... I alway grab through the back of the gills unless Im releasing at the back of the boat during which I try not to touch the fish at all just pliers the hook out. The gill plates only bother my hands a little when i bleed them by ripping a gill plate...

Thank you sir.... I end up shooting a lot of pics for clients and they are all kind enough to allow me to use for marketing...nothing tells the story quite like the smiles, grins and pride holding up a trophy..

Last couple days ran some mid week charters and limited out both days...but yesterday was a 21 fish adventure including a Grand Slam of Rainbows, a Brown, a few salmon and of course lakers by the dozen. We had the limit on Friday by 1030 but kept fishing and shaking for fun and ended the day with a just legal brown to round out the slam for the day. Posted some of the pics...these guys had some tired arms the salmon jumped five times on the way in, the nice rainbow tried to charge the boat going under the swim step and we had some 7-8 pound lakers pulling drag, a lot of drag which is not that common Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United

All good and accurate posts, I have gone out in 20-25 kt winds north south blows on cayuga and experienced 3-5 foot wind swept waves. Mine is not a small boat and can handle it, but because of the nature of wind swept waves they have short intervals they can swamp a small boat quickly. In those cases I took water over the hard top...I wont do it again for fishing it was just too much work, I will only do it for rescues.... Sent from my iPad using Lake Ontario United

Unfortunately Boat Us has no operations on the finger lakes...something they fail to admit prior to taking your money...

That all depends on the size of the boat you could try an oar with my boat but it won’t move 10,000 pounds of boat, and larger sail boats no way. Throw a little wind in the equation and oars are totally useless for anything bigger than a small ski boat
-
That takes some experience to pull off and while I too have done that, it is not the preferred or recommended method in close quarters. If you have someone that can tend the tow line and you keep speed very slow and the boat isn’t too large it can work fine...I’ve also seen boats slam into docks doing that.... people trying to dive off the boat into the dock to prevent impact and get hurt...all kinds of silliness close quarters and docking alongside tow is the best way
-
Yeah because no one ever accidentally dropped a phone or keys or anything overboard ... 🙄 kinda betting your keys have a float on them.... frankly a good handheld radio is a great idea I carry one in my vest that is waterproof and floats 120 bucks when not out on patrol it’s on and acts as a secondary radio...you don’t have to be stupid to drop something -
Amen and exactly why I posted it

No problem

Well there are two ways boats are towed, astern and alongside. When out in open water subject to waves the astern tow is best. Once protected waters are reached then an alongside tow may be established. There are well documented procedures on the net on how to do both. That said I don’t recommend doing it without training and considering all the risks. I do it but Ive also been trained how. One thing everyone on both boats need pfds on and there are many considerations to think about before you do it. I would consult a seamanship manual for all of them, I don’t have the energy to put them all here. Failure to do things right can easily get people hurt or killed and sink boats. However, that said there is not too many more hopeless feelings than stuck on a boat with no help in sight. Just learn the dangers study and if in doubt call for assistance.

Funny this argument of safety vs tickets and money. Statistics show the quickest way to reduce accidents and fatalities in an area is aggressive enforcement and tickets. So whine all ya want. Hypothesize about the dark motivations of the evil in the system... but some morons only understand the stick and have no common sense... to rhe poster wondering if he was required to have a fire extinguisher on your open boat with an outboard ... do it because it’s smart... you have gas on board man seriously ....
