Shout out to Omnia Fishing
I have just recently started buying from them. They have most of what I want and the shipping is way faster than my other favorite tackle dealer. ?

Would year-round daylight savings affect your fishing??
I remember the rumors. I have never seen anything to make me believe the liner was leaking. The water is clear and no issues with the fish. Right now swimming is prohibited but it is for safety reasons not pollution but people do swim. They ask everyone to return game fish like bass and pike but to take pan fish and sneakheads. I have eaten sneakhead from Manor and it was good. It tasted very much like walleye.

I have been a member since 1963. I know it well. BTW the chicken bones are still building up. BTW it still stinks depending on how the wind blows.

My son is in Levittown. I'm 15 minutes south.

Items you'd least want to fish without ?
It was! He was filming it and I hand landed the pike and laid it on the deck. It went ballistic and the next thing I realized my son and the pike were hooked to the same plug.

I always keep side cutters handy. I have had to use them to cut hooks to free a plug after someone got hooked. One time I had to cut a hook on a large plug that was still in the mouth of a very mad a 42" pike and my sons leg.

Would year-round daylight savings affect your fishing??
When I'm fishing northern Quebec or Ontario in July or August it says light enough at 9:30PM to "still be able so see my surroundings." Not so much here in PA. Is it the same for ND? They look about the same latitude.

I doubt it. ☺️ Pennsylvania has a bill in the legislature now to change the state to DST all year long.

Fish Attractants
I use scent on everything. I have never experienced an occasion where I thought that scent was detrimental. When I first started using scent I tried to compare scented and unscented worms. The fish held onto the scented worms longer. It didn't take long to convince me.

Why do you fish?
I gotta do something while "I'm sitting on the dock by the bay". ☺️

Which reel do you guys recommend for striped bass surf fishing...?
I'd pick a reel with a sufficient line capacity for the pound test line your using just in case you run into one of those big stripers you never see but that are probably lurking right under your bait. Be prepared!

Crestliner Dealer- North East
I had to do both with my boat but the advantages of having the boat inside outweigh the effort.

What Was Your Favorite One On Saturday Morning?
Does anyone remember Dan Gapen and "Bobber" Anne? I forget the name of his show. Dan's show concentrated on river fishing in the north country and mostly on small mouth and walleye.

Solo launching Jon Boat with no ramp and a small drop off and sand...Would this work?
The property is privately owned by family or a family member, correct? Ask or get permission to knock the bank down with a tractor or dozer and make a ramp. Then dump gravel on your new ramp. Problem solved!

Dock Debate
SE PA is not NE NY but I have caught fish off a dock down here all year long. Sometimes it gets real slow but it is not impossible.

Be careful paddling!

That looks good! Maybe I'll try some flat black spray paint on a plopper.

Latest Tackle Purchase Thread (Bait Monkey Victim Support Group)
Well I ordered A-Jay's PopMax. Now when it gets here do I put it on the mantel and admire it or do I fish it? ?

Short line trolling with deep diving baits .
Pike too! I catch a lot of toothy creatures right behind the boat.

Short line trolling with deep diving baits .
I do a lot of trolling. The body of water, the depth, the clarity, the lure, etc. dictate how much line I troll. Sometimes I have lures right in the wake and sometimes they are way out there. For me the answer to your question would be "it all depends".

Discontinued lures that you wish would come back
A great little lure. I used them on the Susquehanna for SM and up north for Walleye.
