    I went through a very similar experience, starting with my 19' Key West center console. Had a couple spooky experiences with it, moved up to 23' Cuddy. Way safer but same challenges! I'm back to the Key West last two years, you have it figured out i think. It wont matter which boat really, its all about the waves! One boat maybe a little better than another but it wont matter. The waves will let you know what days you can fish!

    About 30 pounds of 2 3/4 hulls. Many are once fired, some maybe a few times. AA's, Rems, mostly target but may have some sport loads mixed in. ExTrap shooter, always shot new shells in registered so had lots of cases for reloadingfor practice etc Cleaning up gunshop My guess is over 1000 in this tub. $50 Would need to meet someplace or pickup in Elmira Corning area

    Dredge fish shaped weight, 12#'s. Actually on scale a little under 12, 11 plus. Just one, its been on my boat as a spare. $25.00 I am between Elmira and Dundee NY, back and forth but can considered a meet within reason.

    Any current info on Seneca? Have a couple visitors who want to go, just wondering if any specific area is fishing well these days

    Having been on 6 or 8 charters i would say its nothing i ever experienced. I can tell you from taking people on my boat, sometimes i "adjust" my approach with people by level of experience. The captains have significant investments in the boat and gear, dropping a rod/reel combo overboard by mistake taking it out of a rod holder is like a 400 dollar loss. I guess i would say once the fish is hooked and he or the first mate gets the rod out of the rod holder, it should be handed to customer. I would also suggest getting your expectation negotiated before you hire the charter. There are guys over on the west end that are a blast to fish with! Go again, go after kings, you'll love it!

    Real nice morning to fish! Calm, cloudy, etc. Started to set up in 125 headed north, real nice temp break at 70' down water temp upper 40's and dropped more by 100'. Setting lines and first rigger trips in 150', down 80. Small king, that same pattern continued right out to 300'. They hit everything i put down, 9 total by 10:30. The new "first", the biggest one was maybe 5#'s. It was constant action but zero mature fish. I dont remember this ever happening before. Storms coming from the west at 10:45 so i headed in, and it never rained. I'm thinking i never got out deep enough to the matures! Good luck

    Brand new 300 Denier 100% waterproof, UV resistant cover. Cover is for V-Hull and Runabouts 18' to 20' with width up to 102". Stretchy cord and sewn in tie down straps. I ordered this using the mfgs sizing chart for my Keywest 1900 sportsmen and it doesnt fit because of 12" bow rail. Nice cover, fits my 19'-6" center console but doesnt cover nose of boat because of bow rail. I ordered the next size up. New price 25.00

    Greeted with the wind really blowing, like double the Windfinder Max prediction and once you reached about 100' of water(South wind) it was rocking pretty good. Lots of boats 100 to 150. Solo, so one rigger down only, with fixed cheater. Out to 150, turned back and at about 110 both spoons got hit. Small king on bottom spoon and medium brown on top.Green Jeans and Mag Hulk on top. It got a little calmer so started out again got to 165 and had gotten one wire dipsy out with Brads Super Plug, back 300,took a hit, 15# King. U turned back back and at 145 meat gets hit and takes mid teens laker. Then it calmed nicely, headed back noeth and at about 160 again Brads plug got crushed, after a pretty good run, leader between diver and board snaps! So 5 hookups, 4 landed. Just couldn't get out to where i thought the kings likely were. Never got the temp probe down, to rough. So fished 85 to 125 depth. Its not the "Oak", but it was a solid morning. Good luck

    Trying to plan a trip up inthe next day or so and just saw major flooding report on Albany news. Did that storm cause muddy creeks to dump in lake O etc? I'm a Sodus port fisherman, just wondered if the color etc changed because of storms Thanks
