  1. Where did you find these? I cannot locate their site online.
  2. Just what I am looking for! I think walleye will hit these; Thanks!
  3. Fishing early season brown trout, walleye and pike feed close to the bottom.
  4. Thank you!
  5. Did you ever see a green goby? I want a spoon that looks like the real goby.
  6. If I can find someone who does paint custom spoons he would get an order.
  7. Anybody know where I can get spoons that look like a gobie? It will probably have to be a custom made spoon because none of the retailers online have them.
  8. That is a TRUE buddy and should be thanks! Leaves more time for fishing.

    for sale : usa 1989 Penn Yan Pro Hunter

    I would NOT buy a boat this old without a professional survey because I did just that and now I am having stringers, motor mounts and transom repair done. I paid $7000 for my boat but I knew it needed work but not this much work. Survey first! Also all the electronics actually are a personal choice and that should be considered in the price.
  10. Mr 580, are you suggesting that someone who fishes only a few times a year charter or asking some buddies to fish along and pay their way? Actually chartering is NOT a solution because of all the costs involved; I know because I have been chartering since 1997. I think it would be easy to get some fishing buddies to fish that part of the lake.
  11. The Starcraft Fishmaster is a wider boat and built specifically for trolling. Weld over rivets? Your choice. I will be selling my aluminum boat when my old Thompson 240 finally gets finished because although the lighter boat is good for towing, the wind will control you.
  12. I had one that I paid $100 for new; it worked one season then failed. There must be something better on the market. Now I use a pool thermometer on my rigger.
  13. A selection of Bay Rat lures is available at the Thousand Islands tackle shop.
  14. I started chartering in 1997 and the above advise is good stuff. You will not get rich, you may not clear your expenses and expect to put in long hours, especially if you have no one to help you with the clean up AFTER the trip (forgot that part?) If you truly enjoy helping other people catch fish, it is a great "job". Your personal fishing time will be limited to finding the fish for the next trip so you can put someone on "your" fish. I am over 70 and enjoy this so much that I am having an old Thompson rebuilt so I can spend more time on the lake instead of using my Starcraft to fish the river. The river is good but I love that lake!
  15. If you are on the St. Lawrence and in need of fiberglass/transom repair contact David Lalone in Hammond. He just did a Seacast transom for my 1988 Thompson 240 . It is 3" thick, absolutely no wood and the owner of Seacast says it is good for 144 years.
  16. A lot of boaters do NOT know the rules of the road and forcing us to get a boating license will not change how some people pilot their boat.
  17. That report means small craft warnings. Take heed.
  18. This is for a friend and I will check with him for a price range.
  19. Looking for a used center console, 18'-20' with trailer, outboard only.
