Everything went smoothly and we even snuck in some fishing along the way! Boat ran great and we got to see the gorgeous shoreline view the whole way. After a brief break in Irondequoit Bay to see some family and take them for a boat ride we ended up back on our way and doing some fishing in and around the Sandy Creek area.

We ran 6 rods off the otter boards working from 6-25 ft of water in search of a bonus pod of kings but ended up with a dozen or so all BTs up to 8 lbs hitting the deck with a handful more that did not. Had a couple double headers, slime up the deck for the first time and got another day and experience under my belt with owning/operating a bigger boat.

The new riggers are set to arrive from Traxtech this week and those are going to be getting installed ASAP when they arrive. All of these reports of kings are making the urge to get out even stronger….

Here are a few pictures

And were off First fish to the Net! ]]> The New Canvas https://www.jdscustomcharters.com/the-new-canvas/ Mon, 16 Apr 2012 08:20:17 +0000 http://www.jdscustomcharters.com/?p=1344 The boat came with an older canvas but no drop down curtains. With all that I have put into the boat financially I decided to invest into a brand new canvas with the customers comfort in mind. In planning out the color and measurements I had him bring the top and curtains back a full 10 inches to add more leg room for the customers sitting in the rear facing bench seats. It came out great and is super functional.

The new canvas was installed by John Mann of Sodus Bay Canvas his phone number is (315) 871-6400. If you are looking into getting a new top for your boat do yourself a favor and give John a call.
