  1. Braddocks and Sandy yes. The Genesee, hell no!
  2. Best Places to Fish in the Great Lakes Region: A Complete Guide to Prim Fishing Locations
  3. And the Erie snow that makes it to the Lake Ontario drainage helps lake Ontario with Lake Erie moisture.
  4. I might be selling 4 this spring. I will let you know when I'm ready.
  5. Thank you! I will look into it!
  6. Does anyone know of a way to get rid of kicker interference on your electronics? When I throttle up running the kicker, I get a ton of interference. If I run on the main motor, I do not get the interference.
  7. I have with mixed results. Trolling slow with K7 and K9 kwik fish were a better option than the rapalas. Erie guys are using my death traps with Gambler Rigs off leadcores, riggers, divers and coppers in those depth ranges with a lot of success.
  8. French River Ontario Canada. We used to stay at the French River Lodge. Awesome pike, walleye and smallmouth fishing.
  9. I don't know about Chamount but the lake temp is 51. We are running 3 degrees warmer than last year on this date.
  10. I was a little confused when I was walking up to her. Three forward and one back!
  11. They are amazing animals. The stuff they survive is unreal. A couple season ago, I shot a doe with a backwards leg. It looked like she had been hit but a car, her leg broke and healed backwards. She was perfectly healthy and the injury was old. Congrats on the deer!
  12. Buy high end reels for wire divers. Wire divers are hard on reels. Cheaper reels will wear out faster. I run Daiwa Saltist 30's for my four wire reels. I have owned them since 2007 and they have been flawless.
  13. The walls of my office.........
  14. I bought something similar to Rob. I bought a 200 pack. GatorNY bought some waterproof paper that is pretty cool too. That paired with the holders, its easy.
  15. Awesome story and great for him to have someone like you to mentor him!

    DEC

    Are you sure about that? The last 4 or so years in this state point more toward nazi Germany than a free USA.......
  17. Congrats Tommy and Rob! Let’s see the pics Bill!
  18. Let me know if you are getting rid of them. I'm in for 2 of them.
  19. The band is getting back together!!! Good to hear BIll!
  20. I'm looking to buy two old style Daiwa Saltist 20's with line counters. Let me know if you have any for sale.
  21. As a kid, my father would take us to Hamlin Beach State park and we used to fish floating egg sacs on a slip sinker rig and catch some browns and steelhead.
  22. It should be. The new breakwall is actually making the bay worse IMO. I was kayaking there a month ago and couldn't believe how bad that east side is now compared to pre breakwall. Jetties and piers would be a solution to keep a better channel at Braddocks.
  23. You could finally have the answer to "did you catch a deer yet"!
  24. The DEC has said bait but the biomass has increased the past 5 or so years yet size has not improved. The DEC is not going to close the tribs. The financial backlash would not go over well with the local economies. But, when you manage the salmon fishery for the lake, in times of need, you should be protecting the prime spawning areas you depend on to keep this fishery going (which they do have some areas closed). If we didn't depend on natural reproduction as much as we do now with their new stocking plans, it wouldn't be an issue.
  25. Seeing that the DEC has not come out with a definitive answer (lots of theories tossed around over the years) as to why the kings are shrinking, it's a very concerning trend to me. The sky isn't falling yet but why wait until it is? I bet the Lake Huron salmon guys wish action was taken before they lost their king fishery. Let's be honest, most guys aren't going to book a charter or guide, travel from out of state or buy thousands of dollars in gear and a boat for little kings like in the picture above from Lake Superior. 5lb and change kings are not fun on big lake tackle and you don't get much filets off of them! I know I wouldn't be dumping money into a motor rebuild for my boat if the kings were that small here! 15-25lb kings are fun but sliding the net under a 35+lb king sure is a special memory that one will never forget!
