    I still don't understand why you guys have not gone to automatic feeders. When we had them at the Sandy project, it simplified things and fed slower so less food dropped through the bottom of the pens.

    It's managed as a put and take fishery. If it wasn't for tournaments and charters taking fish out of the lake, the alewife population would be in trouble.

    Atlantic catch rates on the rise? I did catch two last year compared to one the season before. Over the years the Atlantic population seems cyclical. 2006 we caught 16 Atlantics, 2007 we caught 12 and the following year we caught 1. Every year we catch way more coho than Atlantics even though Atlantics are stocked in much great numbers. NY stocks about the same amount of each species yet Canada stocks way more Atlantics (400,000) in the lake than coho (80,000).

    Those marks are sometimes lakers. I used to fish them out to 220' on the bottom. They could be kings and I have taken some down that deep. White paddles with glow or white meat rigs have been my go to that deep.

    Will do! Glad you are happy with the pup!

    If the fingerlakes had a better food source than alewife, Atlantics would do even better than they do in the fingerlakes. Same with lake O. Lake Ontario would pump out giants with a better food source.

    The alewife population in Lake Huron crashed. They now have a more diverse diet. I will see if I can dig up the study I read a couple years ago. Thiamine deficiency affects Atlantics more than the other salmonoids stocked in Lake Ontario. There is a high mortality rate in Atlantics on alewife diets.
  13. GAMBLER
    Studies have proven that Atlantics on an alewife diet will not flourish. I don't understand the square block in a round hole mentality of the DEC and the Feds.

    The boga grip on a rope trick works awesome for boats with high free board.

    Most will not catch 4 legal Atlantics in a season, let alone one day!

    You are not Illegal if you continue fishing as long as you haven't boxed an Atlantic over 25" and 2 lakers for each client.

    The Rochester Basin is the best area on the lake for consistent colored water. You could launch at the Genesee River or Ibay. IF the Genny is running hard, the mud plume can be miles long along the shoreline.

    Can we go back to 2012? That season was amazing for big fish and numbers!

    There was an icebreaker out off of buffalo harbor yesterday. SW wind too.

    I wonder how much the ice boom affects spawning walleye, bass, steelhead, musky and sturgeon? Has a study ever been done?
  21. GAMBLER
    If you are worried about docks and boat houses being damaged by ice, what is stopping them from getting damaged when the boom breaks or they clear the boom with 250 sq miles of ice still left on Erie? If are worried about damage, you shouldn't build there......

    That was my first fishing rod!

    I’m replacing my last two Sealines with Saltists.
  24. GAMBLER
    I’m still looking for two older style Daiwa Saltist 20’s with line counters.

    It’s not my video. Just sharing. It makes sense. It’s not natural for the ice to melt behind a man made barrier. That’s common sense. The ice sitting there keeps the Niagara colder longer. If it wasn’t there, the ice would flow downstream into Lake Ontario and melt there.
