Tall Tails

Its important to remind folks yes the projects were ended but the fish were reallocated. They did not cut the fish from being stocked. Thank you for that reminder. I did also leave out that direct stockings were eliminated in a few places as well. Those fish were put into the net pen # and re allocated to other direct stock locations.

Fair Haven and Sandy Creek but those fish got allocated to Oswego and the Oak accordingly. All based on fishing pressure and the survey. No less fish being stocked due to less pens. Yes an overall reduction in stocking but as a percentage the net pens are receiving actually more and less direct stocking in ports are taking place. Offering for higher survival.

Again more disnformation... The only way Lake Ontario Kings stay abundant is thru stocking... There is zero protections in place for natural reproduction. Nat production is simply a gift from Mother nature and adds to the fishery where it can. Please don't spread disinformation...

Huh?? Stoppage of net pen fish?? Where? Not sure where you are getting your info but that is simply not the case in anyway shape or form. Pen rearing is as strong as it ever has. Is there new guidance as to locations and numbers? Yes but certainly in no way has it stopped.

Just wait till the first big west wind... it can get as big as 4 foot waves there at least... I certainly wouldnt want my boat parked there.

The engineer they got to sign off on the mess.

That is a LONG Way to lug a cooler from a vehicle on a Wagon!!! WOW!!! And to think this is where the Mayor wanted the Charter fleet. No thanks Jack!! The Cluelessness continues.

We use them for Saskatchewan hunting. Easy to get in and out of in a ground blind and a ladder stand. A bit more of trick in a climber or a hang on. You wont get cold however. Ultra cold days -10 to 20 sits throw heat packs in the bottom by the feet and they are toasty warm.

We purchased one about 4 years ago for my wife to use to help with access. It is a great tool! I use it heavy to check cameras completely quietly. I can check 6 to 8 cameras on our lease in 20 minutes on our mowed access trails and not bust a deer or leave scent behind (Pre Cell Cameras of course). We have a Quiet Kat. Negotiated a great Price at the Harrisburg show. I used to hunt a lot of large public tract lands and you are allowed to use them as long as it is below 1000CC electric. Ours is a 750CC size. We used it to get deep on big closed logging roads. It is just another tool in the arsenal as far as we are concerned.

The Hatchery is closed to the public due to COVID restrictions. What were you doing there?? You were adamite in our meetings that Steelhead were for the Trib anglers and Steve Hurst is quoted as saying the Chinook Salmon are for Lake fishing specifically. I guess were trying to figure out what the truth is here...

The paint can be found at Lowes Greg. The one in the picture the yellow is actually to bright.

I might have a few... $100.00 a piece.. LOL

This can be a long answer but lets see if I can simplify it. A "Flip" that you are asking about is when the lake has been stable with a thermocline and then we get a Hard south wind. That rushes the cold water in and replaces the warm top with the cold. We call this "ice out" or a flip. What you are describing at least to me and the way I have learned it is the west wind simply fills the bay with warm water and you need to get offshore to find the correction. In some cases typically later in August the fish wont leave once they are "Staging" they just get finicky and wont bite much. The Bay is a different animal when it comes to Warm water. West wind probably effects the bay more then any other place on the lake. You need an East or a South wind to make the correction to the bay and bring the cold water back in. The trick in the bay is to run deep and keep stopping and checking with your probe until you find the temp you are looking for unless you are marking them. In that case the temp wont matter if they are hungry. I hope this helps.

Get 12 clips to Dave I will leave him the cash in case we don't cross paths. Thanks Greg.
