1,000 Islands

Make sure you get the NY and Canadian Licenses as well as the Ontario Sportsman card. Check the tackle shop in Clayton, NY (forgot the name) for good guides. If I may give some unsoliciated advise... Small brighter senkos and 1/2 & 3/4oz drop shot weights.

GLX 854 (your MH/F) AMAZING jig/t-rig rod the EX6 you mentioned AND whatever your budget can support model-wise, but an "843" is a good rod all around blank from Loomis.

What's that one secret lure....
19lb smallie bag says otherwise. Sandy bottom, windy so the visibility was not awesome and they spawn deep up here (8-15'). We could see something down there. Fan casting all over and pop it back. Gulp gulp gulp.

Big Carolina rigs for spawners. Finessing a bed fish is like a peeping tom in your window... Tolerable if you were busy. A big rig dragged through a bed is like a truck coming through your bedroom... You're gonna react fast, and so do the bass.

Genius or Crazy??
This makes a lot of sense. Spring sale at bps is also about a month away... And no bass will be biting in Mass between now and then.

Daiwa Tatula TAT6101MXB casting rod
I looked long and hard at this rod, my understanding is that the action is based off of the the Steez Megatop rods (nearly identical specs). Here's a review from a few years ago of that rod to help you understand it. My analogy would be if you could take a 3 piece Medium powered travel rod and replace the top section with the tip from an UL rod. http://www.tackletour.com/reviewdaiwastzmegacast.html

Does VT-NY reciprocal fishing Lake Champlain
Good idea. All the good stuff is on our side anyway...

New Shimano Ultegra HG FB Spinning Reel -- Bass Pro
Yeah they are starting to cross the names over between cycling and fishing products. I think I'm reading BIKE magazine again sometimes with their names... Ultegra means "Ultimate Integrity" Dura Ace is "Durable Race" Nexave Tiagra Alivio means "I'm a gonna A LEAVE YO a$$ in the woods" (it's LOW end Mtn components that broke all the time)

Bow mount electronics
I'd bite the bullet, sales galore are coming and the constant cycling of bringing it back and forth is going to be an issue at some point.

Does VT-NY reciprocal fishing Lake Champlain
I think it's OK except for Inland Sea and Missisquoi Bay. We have vt licenses for tournaments out of ny. This means we are in possession of fish on the NY shore without a ny license and it's ok.

Ideal swim bait rod?
I use a 7'2" MH Reg Daiwa Tatula with a Daiwa TDZ, 30lb power pro with a 16lb sniper leader to throw 4.8's on 1/8-1/4oz screw lock hooks. Slower ratio helps me crawl them.

That's not what I am saying. And I agree to a point about the cost of production.
