Jimski and everyone else keep the good ideas coming there are good people who are listening. I am a Jimski too AKA the Ciscokid. :)

Just talked with 4 different NYS DEC people from 716, and 518 area codes as those are the contamination people in 518. There were clueless regarding the Michigan Huron River no eat fish advisory extending to Lake Erie. They haven't tested for this chemical in fish but only in drinking water. I had to tell him that fishermen at the cleaning stations would volunteer to provide fish for testing. They just hired a chemist and purchased a new spectrometer and are developing a protocol. I told him call Michigan they probably already have a protocol. The chemical is a fire retardant and is used waterproofing materials. It is one of the main chemicals used in the manufacture of GORTEX. They all admitted that Michigan was way ahead of NYS. What else is new????

Great Job but all you have to do is look where all the black tire scuff marks are, you don't build or design anything when it's public except for the average person. It's that simple. We all appreciate your help. The exit right to the road is one of the worst the angle is almost impossible to line up. Tight lines. Thx again.

THIS IS THE LINK TO THE MICHIGAN DO NOT EAT FISH WARNING HURON RIVER TO LAKE ERIE!!!!!! https://www.freep.com/story/news/local/michigan/2018/08/31/do-not-eat-fish-warning-extended-huron-river/1159464002/

The SBH is a state owned facility with Liberal politicians ruling the roost in Albany you can bet a dollar to a donut that all those tax dollars go into A GENERAL FUND. So you can kiss the money bye bye for sportsmen and women. It doesn't exist once it gets there!!!! The actual boat slips are owned by a private company. Stop by the SBH office on right side just b4 the cleaning station and talk to the state dude in there if you want results. His Office located just across from parking lot so easy to access. Says people don't show enough interest in his opinion.

How does this affect us L. Erie east enders are local fish in NYS & migrating fish contaminated with those chemical? Google Michigan no eat fish advisory Huron river to Lake Erie!!!!

Great suggestion!!! Just remember for those folks that plan things but don't do things " A DESK is a DANGEROUS PLACE FROM WHICH TO PLAN/VIEW the WORLD!!!" but they do it anyways and never consult the doers they just throw it up against the wall and see what sticks. Gotta love the bureaucracy. "Drain the Swamp",

Am I blind or haven't I looked in the right place to have noticed a BIG BEAUTIFUL Stars and Stripes flying somewhere anywhere in the SBH. It would be nice as most of us are PROUD Americans first of all. Secondly the only windacators we have now are the windmills, certainly a big American Flag flying in the breezes of Lake Erie would be very nice. I can get sea sick sometimes so it would be a great way to help measure the strength and direction of the wind. If there's a flag there and I just haven't see it then I stand corrected, and will apply for a see and eye dog ASAP. PS: I love dogs.

Thx MuskieDreams you got it right!!

Lineman, your right the mouse pad is more than likely my problem. However this is the only site and area this seems to happen. I am steering starboard and clear of the mouse pad. Lol Thx

MM good job of identifying the issues and finding a positive way to take action. Look for the areas with heaviest and most scuff marks. Example far curb on right turn to exit the parking lot. You got to be a Jedi Knight to get out of there without running over the right curb. Guys/Gals push their cars towards far curb to make Right turn and not hit right curb almost impossible. BIG BRIGHT SIGNS NEEDED to hopefully get people to load their boats in the prep area NOT in FRONT of the LAUNCH AREA. They should Man UP and DO THE RIGHT THING!! Childish bad behavior STINKS!!!!! Yesterday I had a run in with a jerk who had a fancy fishing boat & truck who drove by us in the get ready prep area. Then proceeds to park his boat in the early am right in font of launch and get his boat ready not a pleasure boater but a fellow fisherman. I told he is suppose to make ready in the proper area he got offended and as I walked back from parking he confronted me and started an argument . I go there to fish and enjoy not argue with inconsiderate idiots. Yes it's easier not to say anything but this old former Marine knows nothing said to these people will just continue there Bad behavior.

I find this website aborning at times had a reply 99% written and it closed and reopened loosing everything and other times it scrolls up on it's own and I have to stop typing and reposition the cursor. Hate it!

MM how did your conversation with Vince go? Did you nail down the issues, did he offer support? Thx CiscoKid

MM that's the kinda support and good action ideas we need!!! THX

MM, I agree I think your the man for the job good thinking.

No kidding it gonna take time. If you want change U got start somewhere sometime but no one is replying that they called Vince so it like peeing into the wind. Good thing fish are dumb.

That's not what Vince told me today. Do you have 1st hand info or is this your best GUESS??? Do you have a better CONTACT for us??? No one person makes a change like this a smart guy like you should know that. Vince works for NYS and is the manager of the whole Buffalo Harbor State Park. With out him on our side we get nothing!!!!!

Please feel free to vent but then follow up with some positive comments or solutions. Call Vince, bitching among ourselves accomplishes nothing. He's a key to one of the locks. It's a PROCESS!!! Vince thinks there's no problem and it was designed this way to prevent speeding. I talked to him today. I told him it was one of the worst designs in the state system. Action gets results we all know just talk is cheap. Go gem em Ivo.

Pure negativity will not produce results. The $tate built it the state can fix it!!! Stick together don't just bitch.

Ok ladies and gentlemen HERE's the PERSON to CALL at The Buffalo Harbor State Park to voice your opinion & Concerns regarding the entrance and exit at the SBH!!! Silence is golden but not in this case, he told me I am the 1st person to contact him this year. He's the manger of The Buffalo Harbor State Park, AKA the SBH Please Contact and ask for : Vince @ 716- 822-1207. If we you don't make waves they'll never know and things will never change. Thx, The KID

How true Mike. How about a tire that gets compromised and scuffed at SBH but doesn't blow out until the T way at 65 or 70 MPH when heated up NIGHTMARE!!!! It's gonna happen unfortunately someday to someone, some family. To many fools designing things from behind desks " a dangerous place from which to view the world"
