  1. Who do ALL of US have to contact and complain to in order to get the ball rolling to make the necessary improvements!!!! To just talk amongst ourselves accomplishes nothing. I hit a curb yesterday and really try hard not to mostly while trying to exit the SBH. Need to widen the roads and make the pretty center median narrower or gone with something else in else smaller as divider. It just might be the New York State parks department? Nothing is going to happen unless we make it know there are serious issues. Like your tire blows out at 60 mph on T way because it was compromised at the SBH. With all do respect to the Thunderbird Pilots that can get though everything cleanly every time the black scuff marks on the curbs and the crushed curbs say it all!!! I hit a curb and scuffed a tire yesterday and I try hard not to, I am a former U.S. Marine not a T Bird pilot. Lol If anyone knows who are where to complain to let us know, address phone number. Lets be a band of brothers and getter done!!!!
  2. 1) You can vary the size of any speed bump my friend. 2) When U drive over any sized speed bump slowly your tires will never go airborne unlike dropping off a curb. Driving over the curbs because of the poor entrance exit design can cause and will cause more damage than any speed bump. I see people dropping off the curb by the collection booths every time I fish. The black scuff marks on the curbs visually state how poor the design really is!!! Take a LOOK next time.
  3. Your 100% right however not all boaters are polite considerate or smart. The ramp road has prelaunch loading spots on the Buffalo or North side of the entrance ramp road. Once again in this case we a dealing with human nature which is unpredictable at best. Never gonna get full compliance from the general public, fishermen or not. Good point though do we need a big hunter orange sign that reads preload your boat here b4 launching and a cop to enforce it? People should realize it makes things go faster for them too, but some won't no matter what...
  4. 50 yrs your just a kid, great year that one if I can remember back that far hmm? Lol Back then I wasn't even wearing glasses at 50 everything worked good not so true anymore. Need BIGGER PRINT, Wider Roads and the P can handy. Any help you can provide to fix the Maze and/or the fish cleaning station would be appreciated. Heck At 50 I'd just carry the boat down to the water and drop her in now I got to use a trailer. Maybe that's my problem not experience. Great year 50, 1998 a century ago. Have a great day mate.
  5. No other boat launch IN NYS has such a design in out of it 's boat launch and I never seen a cop handing out speeding tickets. It's poor design because it's so curvy and narrow. A wider road with a couple of speed bumps would do the trick and been a lot less expensive my friend. Once again look at all the black tire scuff marks on all the curbs in and out. That says it all!!!
  6. You must be younger than 72 years old and a former obstacle course or truck driver. I have non of those benefits and I try not to hit anything. By the toll shacks every time I am walking to dock I see trailers run over curb. Just look at the BLACK SCUFF MARKS on the curbs do little elves paint those at night? Your obviously exceptional and should have been a Blue Angel or T Bird pilot. The rest of us mortally normal. Lol
  7. How many of you folks have run over the curbs & scuffed your trailer tires and prayed you didn't have a puncture or blow out trying get in or out of the small boat harbor entrance and exit? I do it almost every time and my boat and trailer not really that big just average 18 ' boat. However the pretty median in the middle with all the plants and trees that make it all worth while RIGHT? I suspect WRONG! It's so sad that the black tire scuff marks on all the curbs create an eye sore.. Really!!! Yes it's a dumb PP design that makes the roadway to narrow to negotiate and once again probably designed by someone probably sitting behind a desk. "a dangerous place from which to view the world". It could be the same person who approved the fish cleaning station design and rubber drive belts that don't work to well when WET. Is there any water in a fish cleaning station? Yep but bring your own extension cord to use your electric knife BRILLIANT!!!! Have you all enjoyed the easy access trying get your fish to the cleaning station, it's especially convenient for old folks like me. While the boat launch itself is well designed and trailer parking wonderful. The previous things I mentioned need to be redesigned and improved, like a wider entrance and exit road and a chain drive for the fish cleaning station. I would suggest we start to call the NYS parks department and ask for a redesign and improvement be made in the off season On the other hand maybe I am the only one this happens too or noticed all the black scuff marks on those beautiful cement curbs. Comments and suggestions welcome.
  8. My buddy and I Fished out in front of condo's last Sunday that's way out in front of the windmills 50 to 55'. We caught 12 of the biggest walleyes we have ever caught in our lives that's 130 yrs experience and a lot of walleyes between us. We had a 10 lb., 9, 8, 7's smallest 4 lbs. Actually most bigger than we wanted to catch to eat, but you take what the Lord gives you on any given day. All stomachs empty but fish full of fat!!! Almost no junk fish that day 3 to be exact. Think I saw bait just above bottom kind of fuzzy long horizontal streaks not a solid streak. What kind I don't know. Worm harnesses took our fish. Not to worry Lake Erie walleyes are alive and well.
  9. Went to eye fish website no such thing as Pink Frog spinners. Green frog yes.
