Nice catch there Clint. A 3fer 🤗. Congrats to your boatman, that's a dandy 'eye. 👍


r3 congrats on that new vehicle, it sounds sweet.

DarDy 911 crash calls usually require air bag deployment or roll over. I'll bet the moron that asz ended you had air bag deployment.

I too dislike the tracking systems being forced on new vehicle buyers. I refuse to give my email address to a car salesman and they can take that XM Radio and put it, where the sun don't shine.

My newest vehicle was special ordered.... noooo mfg tracking, no navigation, and no XM. (free trial or not🌞)

I have my own cell signal booster, my own wifi and my trusty cell phone to do all the tracking and music playing I need. 🎃

Troutbum I hear you I do and I agree but, at least, I can mess with the cellphone tracking a little bit. 🤭 Sometimes....🤫 I fib about my location, like right now when I ask for the location of my local Walmart my phone thinks I'm in Pittsburgh and I ain't nowhere near there.🤗

Seriously though, I don't care for the annoying emails and alerts associated with the automotive stuff plus the additional costs (🤔OK, I'm just cheap) of the add ons like navigation and XM Radio.


So how's the fishing been going? Ya able to get out?

BTDT, no I haven't been to the SR for this salmon run.  I do have plans for the end of October to fish both the Oswego and the SR.  More interested in browns and steel but may go begging if we don't get some serious rain. 
A lot of salmon in the river now.  I'm sure it's a slaughter.  Saw a cool photo the other day of fish stacked up in the Joss.    

We had 37 degrees at 7 am this morning. I don't see many stars out tonight and rain expected at 5am. Breakdown is gonna suck but you can probably see our campfire from space tonight.
Happy fishing.

 You can hope R3.  I still may do the winter  lodge and barrel thing, trusting they'd do a better job of spraying surfaces and changing bedding. Having had food poisoning in Poolaski twice already, a cooler will come with me and a backpacking stove. 
    I spent 4 days camping on the coast and it was incredible. Caught about 80  stripes, but none bigger than around 7-8 lbs.   Still an absolute blast. Rode our bikes, as the best thing for my cancer is biking, it turns out. Just so happens I'm into it and have restored an old bike I've had for 45  years, let alone  riding my carbon frame race bike and a new mountain/fat bike I'm ordering for the  ice and snow.  Might try it for ice fishing with studs. Met a guy who does it on Lake George. Got my wife loving it and set her up with a great used bike  that I set up for road and gravel.
     
     I won't burn a spot if you paid me in gold. I only saw one person fishing on the coast and I avoided him like the plague. He had a two hand  Spey he got out about 40'  with on a good cast and was bragging about fishing  Martha's Vineyard.  Of course, he wasn't into numbers and was happy he could fish his two grand rig for zero fish.  He wanted to trail after me. I told him to pound  the  salt right where he was. This is not the time to tell a soul about your spots.  I mean no one, let alone snobby jerks. Good luck to those that hit the SR, salmon may be a no go for me. We'll see.
 
 
 

Very nice fichy. I do like the coast at times and you've seemed to go it down for what you enjoy. The self contained camping scene really is the social distance the world is crazy about. We knew long ago but it's becoming more and more popular as the only means for some folks to spend their wealth in airstreams.
Strange how they ( big brother) try to restrict that from good folks.

As for SR.
My friends/ co workers had enough of the non friendly crowded kitchen.
They won't return until December. Worst they've witnessed this year. Of course low water was a factor but the circus with the rona was to much to bear.
They did say they would return to the jail water as they were well versed in sanitary conditions. It was worth the peace of mind, not like the old days of just a place to crash.

We have an end in sight to the projects I've taken on this summer. Move date is November 1st. First day of deer hunting for me is November 4th until November 30th. I'll be spending many hrs on the mountain and time away from home.
Let's hope it's a soft landing into winter.
Peace and tuna

On another note I drove by all the local haunts up north coming back from Henderson Harbor on Tuesday. No water anywhere and none dry up there. 2 more trophy fish were taken in a 32 inch walleye and a 43 inch pike. No other fish were really caught not even perch. I ended the day weekend with 3 small perch and countless goby. Good times good people

It means he likes it — a lot.

Male dogs pee on things they want to claim as their own. The poop on something to send an even stronger message.

I've watched the dec video from hatchery. If they've got their quota, that's great but it dosen't look like days of the past. Lots of standing around with fewer fish then I remember.

Hope they send someone for me they dont want back------------

Too funny. Thanks man.

Only real issue for me with those kinda call is the old folks who may buy into it and call back only to loose their life savings or credit scores to some crook who should be slowly fried.
Never hear of arrests for those guys even though the calls are commonplace.

Talking a lot about yard signs for the upcoming election over on another thread'
Reminds me of coming back from SR Country years back in upstate NY and passing a yard where someone had all their older worldly belongings out.
 
Big plywood hand painted sign said ' PRETEND I DIED SALE'

Great score on the tables! That type of cleaning/processing area is on the 'wish list' for a future build. 
Glad to see the grind is showing an 'end in sight' for you. Will seem like a vacation when you get back to your normal 'just average hectic' schedule. 

Well ,Salmon season seemed to last a lot longer than I thought it  would after the past couple of years- Still coming in a bit in late Oct is OK.
Steel showing up seem to be nice sized - not just cookies.
Hope things are turning around.
 
Not my kinda fishing down low but the masses seemed  happy.
If I had got up there for low fishing - mighta been one quick time in that environment.
Not my cupa tea.
At least I avoided past due food, generally over salted too. lol
 
Up top seemed real slowwww with the low waters and most photos of caught fish were below the 81 hole to the estuary'
Glad to hear  the zone is opening so some can get  up to fish.
Season long clousure says a lot.
 
IMHO NY gotta start rethinking the extra summer high flows for kayakers in low rain years.
Lots of different folks use the river but the fishery has a ton of cash into it by the state and is a big long term effort.

Outa staters beware New York States new 19 mandates.
MUST have a negative 19 test 3 days prior to entering and then quarantine in state for 3 more days and another test on the 4th
Presumably you can then move about if thats negative too.
 
Last time around the NY fine for non compliance were up to around $2,000 --no mention of the fine this time around.
