2020 20’ Duckworth Advantage Sport

My wife and I got out after work and got the lines in at about 5:30pm. We set out in 120’ . By 8 we landed 2 kings and lost 2 we had one get into the prop and cut the line 4” from the hook. 3 hits were on meat and one was on a Carbon 14 while trolling our way back in. One was 15 lbs the 2ed was 11. During that time she killed 170 of those dam biting flies. They were relentless. I see them a lot in Maine while offshore tuna fishing too. I hate any kind of bug dope but I also hate donating a qt of blood while trying to fish. mother then that not a bad afternoon. It’s 4:19am and we are heading back out soon until 8:30am then back to work.

I would say that was a incredible trip for the first time on the lake. Great way to break in your new Duckworth on the big lake. I expect you will soon be buying a house there

Great report thanks. I was out also. We left from Sodus. A local told me Saturday was a stic bite but I really wanted my best shot at a King so I stuck with spoons. We only put one brown in the net as of 1 pm. We went in for lunch and back out about 2:30. I changed over to all stic baits and the rods fired consistently boating 5 browns and a nice eye.

I own 2 they work well.

WSW 17-22kts at 5:30am was 18-26kts out of the west all night 😖

I didn't want to deal with the bow blowing off and tangling lines so we stayed in.

My wife and I were going to head out of Sodus this morning for a few hours before work. The picture below is the current buoy report off of Oswego. I understand SSE is a good direction but gusts 24-25 since midnight may be sporty in a 20’ boat.

Are the rod trees still available?

I came here a week ago from Maine. I got out 2 evenings last week, a day Saturday and the whole day Monday. Could be worse I guess but I still think I came early. We have had some luck. Last Friday evening me and another guy went 6/6 on browns and Monday the wife and I went 12/18 again all browns. The last two weeks in March I was working in Ocean Springs Mississippi. Fishing was tough still a little early to fish from shore. I managed 2 specs and a guy gave me 4 flounder. I too spend some time watching Russ's videos as well as Ricks from Crazy Yankee. Very enjoyable to watch but seems to be very costly for me

What are the dimensions?

Yesterday was decent.

Very nice vessel. All aluminum would be my guess

I saw it in Oswego today. When I saw the net reel on the deck I figured it was towing a net assessing the bait biomass.

I will take it.

I took a ride out to the fort this afternoon to check the conditions. Looks like there is plenty of colored water to work when the wind lays down.

I was in Oclott at daylight. I only saw two boats out. Drove to Wilson and the parking lot was empty also.

If you will consider shipping let me know.
