The delivery comes Friday. I will have them available early next week! The colors I am carrying in micros are on the site but show out of stock. Thanks for the plug Nick!
2014 the lack of emeralds was not the case around Sandy. There were tons in the creek like usual. Was there a lack of emeralds or the cold water coming down the Niagara keep them out of the area (lake warmed quicker outside the plume)?
I hundreds of hours dragging the bottom of Lake Ontario, I have only hung up bad once. It was on the crib to the Vanlare treatment plant off of Durand Beach. I have brought up some interesting things over the years. Last season I scraped up a diver, flasher and a fly. Some guys used to add a short section of chain to their rigger ball with thick solder. They used to let the chain drag bottom and not the ball. If the chain hung, the solder broke and the chain was the only thing lost. I always wondered about running a 1lb weight off of my rigger ball on heavy mono and let that drag bottom.
The June transition time can be great for brown and laker fishing. I can't tell you how many trips I was alone fishing browns or lakers while guys were scratching out a king or two in June.
