  1. It would would not have been enough but would have helped. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  2. I totally get it Rich. I'm not for any more flooding that can be avoided. But to put shipping ahead of flooding is money driven. If parts of Montreal are flooded and we can let more water out of the lake without flooding Montreal anymore, it should be done. The parts that are already flooded are flooded. Why hold back water to only flood more people out that are not flooded yet?
  3. I just read a response on the outflow change to the St. Lawrence river on Face book. If you don't believe it is politically / money driven, you are foolish. Here is the quote" the absolute maximum is between 11,000 m3/s to 12,000 m3/s, however, this will cause dangerously high speeds in the channel and low levels in Lake St. Lawrence, so the board may only want to release 9900 m3/s to ensure shipping may still continue. The shipping industry requires 2 weeks prior notice of adverse flow conditions". F- shipping. People and business are being flooded out. This is costing the towns / counties huge money.
  4. The days that are a blood bath, you learn nothing (other than holy crap fishing is exercise). The days that are a grind, you learn from it. Those blood bath days are fun but they do not help improve you as a fishermen.
  5. I would much rather see someone get some use out of it. It is just collecting dust in my garage.
  6. Those guys will not slow down. We were perch fishing at the channel markers years back in my 14' aluminum boat and a 30+' boat blew by us on plane. They were only 30-40' from us!
  7. Gone pending pickup.
  8. I run them both and let the fish tell me what the want.
  9. I find it funny that the IJC webpage no longer allows you to open the link to the outflows page..... http://ijc.org/en_/islrbc/Regulating_Lake_Ontario-St._Lawrence_River The link worked last week. Now anything you click on the page directs you to the same home page.....
  10. Congrats Chris. Those are some quality spring fish for sure!

  12. Free Browning compound bow. It comes with a release, case,target,arm guard, sights and carbon arrows. It will need a new string. Pick up only. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  13. All season that area is great. Late August, the Sandy to Braddock Bay area has produced some huge lakers. My boat took a 34.06 in 2012 and another 35lber was caught there two years ago.
  14. Char Master, come to Sandy Creek in June. The laker fishing is insane. I can put you right on the fish when you come up. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  15. They were taunting you Bill.
  16. All the marinas on Sandy Creek are empty. The state launch is underwater completely.
  17. They work but a PITA when they get tangled in the net. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  18. We got our fish at Sandy but due to water temps, we held them for six days. Fish deliveries on the West end were way too late. The oak direct stocked just like the Genny. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  19. I live in Hilton and could meet you in Oak Orchard if you would like. Let me know. I am available tomorrow from 1-3pm.
  20. You are gonna get a ton of knock offs with your spin n glo rig like that. Lakers like to grab the very back end of the bait. With your current set up, they would miss the hooks most of the time. I would suggest adding some beads to get the hook back so the hook is right to the edge of the fly. Also lengthen the lead on the spin n glo. I find 24-28" is perfect.
  21. These guys have it covered. Good info above. Not much more that I can add.
  22. The only issue with the format for a big fish Friday is taking the time out of prefishing to hit the different grounds that the species inhabit. IMO, this would be a much better format for an actual tournament.
  23. Along with stocking cuts, two pen projects are direct stocking due to water temps and late fish deliveries. This is only going make for a smaller year class due to poorer survival.
