  1. I'm located in Greece off 390. Just looking to trade one of my Fat AZ holders ( I have 3 only use 2 ) for a Cannon Adjustable Rod Holder that would get more use. (Stock image from their site)
  2. Good question - following. I think you're gonna hear some people say to get a Fishhawk and find where the thermocline is (wish I could afford one right now)
  3. Fishing solo on my 16' I haven't been running 2 rods yet this year, just the one off the downrigger with decent success (all lakers so far) I own 2 wire rods that I ran dipsies with last year as well. Solo fishing - run a flasher / fly off the rigger, and a spoon off the dipsy? I read on here that it's preferred to run the flasher off the dipsy but when solo netting, the extra length of the flasher / fly and the dipsy leader makes it a pain to net I would assume. I would think it would be easier to net a flasher fly solo off the rigger since you don't have to content with the extra length of the dipsy leader. Would work fine right?
  4. nice! i was solo in a 16' so i didn't want to go too far out
  5. Fished for a few hours solo both days. Ran spoons on my new downrigger- just one line out as I was solo and didn’t feel like the hassle of a downrigger and dipsy alone 8 lakers between the two days - 40-100 fow - mostly in 60 fow. first day I was fishing a bit slow 2.2-2.5 and I was told to speed it up for kings. Today I used the hunt mode on the Itroll to ramp it 2.4-3.2 - and still just got lakers! both days all spoons. I never fished any shallower than 25-30 fow. All on spoons.
  6. That happened to me last time I was there too. I was beyond irritated.

    Canandaigua Canandaguia Launch

    Thanks - I’ve never launched there before - always just the south end. I wanted to get out on the water this week sometime and test the motors. Thursday on looks nice - not sure about the wind

    Canandaigua Canandaguia Launch

    Anyone know if the south launch is open yet?
  9. Anyone interested in a Controllking remote throttle? Fits Nissan/Tohatsu - I believe it's part Magma 89. Came with my kicker - and I ended up buying a different unit (iTroll - I wanted a little more tech savvy unit). $150shipped OBO. The throttle rod is already cut and the slip tube is added (i partially installed last night) - and I'll include that as well (throttle rod is off a 2017 Tohatsu 8hp
  10. As someone who just spent 5 days in the hospital for thyroid cancer surgery - completely alone 99% of the time unless I was being poked by needles, I can attest - you don't want to have to go to the hospital for this and be there all alone. I'm on light duty since I have an 8" scar on my throat so I can't fish anyhow so May 15th won't kill me, but I can see how the rest of you are going stir crazy. Stay strong!

    Canandaigua Canandaguia lake

    Is the lake open/available to fish by boat? The south launch that is. I've never fished it in the spring so I don't know when it de-ices or launch is usable. Thanks
  12. Where are you fishing? What are your speeds? We just started trolling this year for musky and had great success (except for our Chataqua trip) We had awesome luck with one lure all year - it caught 80% of our fish. (Lungsten 22 short) - even though we had 3 rods in the water at all times, this one lure was the winner every single time. As far as rods go I don't think it matters. We fish St Croix musky trolling rods. It's all up to your budget.
  13. Yea, I PM'd him, it's so much more than I need - hard to justify spending 200 more than I was looking to spend (for a new depthpower)
  14. Anyone selling a Scotty Depthpower electric rigger?
  15. Came with my boat - don’t need it. $50
