  1. I had my boat insured it was 375 a year .Covered boat, trailer, passengers , and a rider up to 10k on my personal property. Rider covered radios fishfinders down riggers trolling motors and gear. Also. Overed up to 100k , liability. That was back in 2000 or so. Look hard at what your buying . As far as coverage for passengers and liability. Replacement will be the least of your worries if somebody gets hurt.
  2. Our legislative system is the problem ... it's being tossed around as political leverage because they have no dog in the fight ... They could care less except one. He is happy it is used this way as it will always be just filler to be tossed aside at the last second . It needs to be introduced as a stand alone bill and not pushed off on a do nothing committee. DEC should have control and make the decisions not a handful of twits in Albany.
  3. Great book .... I miss grouse hunting. I had a gsp that was phenomenal grouse and woodcock dog . She hunted pheasants one season and she roaded grouse bad that season. She finally stopped with a lot of back to basic yard work. A great grouse dog is a once in a lifetime dog .

    Spey rod

    There is a spey rod thing in pulaski this Saturday. I'm going to go check it out . Yup switch rod that's it . Love it when that fresh steelehead smacks a fly hard enough to almost take the rod out of your hand .

    Spey rod

    Anybody else fish a spey rod ? Got into it this past spring it's a hoot for steelehead. Actually I have an intermediate fly rod as it's not a spey rod but also not a single hander .
  6. In watkins glen I watched as this guy came ripping in backs up yelling at his wife . She gets out redfaced visibly upset . He is just muttering swearing the whole time... hands her the rope backs down the ramp slams on the brakes boat slides half way off and he guns it forward. She is yelling at him to stop and he yells shut the f up he knows what he is doing . He drags the glass boat up the ramp until the lower unit snags the ramp boat come all the way off the trailer landing on the ramp with a big crack.. Wife is in tears .. jerk off gets out and starts yelling at her . He wants help pushing it into the water. Couple of us help him get it floating rather than drag it off the ramp. He actually thought he could pull it up onto the trailer with a hand winch.... then dumbass tells her to get into the boat .. fires up the motor and away he goes . He didn't get out of the canal before turning around as the boat was taking on water from the crack in the hull. Now he wants the ramp cleared so he can save his boat ... his wife walked away sobbing. Would have been hilarious except we were all worried about the wife.
  7. First 2 in the 45 colt is rat shot ... followed by 4 250grn fn hard cast ... got it covered.
  8. I know they are protected ... I still would have busted a cap in his ass
  9. Could be cant see if it has the lateral stripes along the side of its head in the pic. I thought they were found around southern lake ontario shores around Rochester area .
  10. Looks like a water snake.
  11. Now that looks much better than a car !
  12. I made my nephew a true trout bum. Started him tying at 12. Seems it helped his ADD/OCD. Got him fly fishing at 14. When he was 16 and driving he was caught cutting school to go fly fishing. He graduated associate degree this year .and has been fishing every chance he can get. His mom just stopped and asked if I had seen or heard from this morning . I was on the back porch sipping coffee at 5:30 am when he drove by with his fishing buddy this morning . They were headed in the direction of our home trout stream. Apparently the was suppose to help load hay in the barn . I was informed this was my fault . I have created a monster . I'm ok with it ... I will take the blame . Kid has to get as much time on the stream now as he is moving on to a 4 year school this fall and wont have time to fish much. Probably a good thing I haven't gotten him on the great lakes tribs for browns and steelhead yet . He wouldn't go back to school.
  13. Love a challenging night ... you know they are making you work for it by how many times you had to tie on new tippit .
  14. Just a thought could the trout have been working an emerger or perhaps a diving caddis? Or even an egg laying caddis?
  15. Lol been there . Had a fish feeding slashing rises... figured it would be a rainbow or a huge brookie . Worked across stream had to cast under a tree . Firrst cast and it slams it like a monster ... turned out to be a rock bass.... wtf.
  16. Congrats... .. and thank you. Didn't want you to say you weren't going to buy it and then I would have to ask where it was .....so I could .
  17. Sorry my friend . Enjoy every minute and I hope the disease progresses very slow . The disease took my grandmother 20 years ago. There has been many advancements in treatment since we went through it . I pray they find a cure.
  18. Have used a canoe... got rid of my old one back when my back was really bad . Big gruman aluminum 16 footer. Pain in the rear to travel with .. terrible on my back and impossible to paddle by myself.
  19. How doesnthenwave Walker handle river fishing ... skinny water?
  20. Scool me on kayaks. I'm not sure about them. My buddy got a cheap one to use sit in . He says its comfortable. He is 5 foot 8 and.goes 150 lbs soaking wet . He wants to float the local river to fish and perhaps the Delaware also ponds . I'm 50 years old 6 foot 2, 270 lbs with a bad back. Little sit in probably isn't going to cut it . I have been looking on line at a few. Just not sure which style will do what I need . I looked at an old town predator yesterday 13 footer has a nice seat that gets you up off the deck. $ 1300 I dont have $3000 bucks to spend for the higher end ones . Not sure of the different hull desines. What do you guys use and recommend .
