As a charter captain and taxidermist I actually AM a salesman. However, this time I'm not selling anything. The price you pay for the Salmon School will be well offset by the gift bag and other free stuff you will receive. Deadline is tomorrow boys. 😄 Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Come to the salmon school next weekend and you'll get one in your gift bag. 😄 Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

I'm told there are still a few spots left. Get off the couch and come to the Seminar next week. It'll get you fired up for spring and you'll pick up some great tips and incredible deals on tackle. Sunday is the deadline boys! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

For those on the fence, and the couch, here is what you'll get for registering--- --A FULL day of salmon and trout instruction from 3 Captains and tournament fishermen with over 100 years combined experience! --A gift bag with our "go to" baits.

The LOTSA Salmon School is the place to be next weekend. Www.lotsa.org Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

As we close in on the registration deadline and the date itself I wanted to remind everyone of another amazing deal. BloodRun Copper, in association with Coville Outfitters, will be offering FREE copper and Flee Line spooling service at the show. That's right! You can bring your reels to the School, leave them with Greg and Danny at the BloodRun Booth while you're in class, and they will be spooled up and ready to go when you're done. You pay ONLY for the line! If you're wondering how much backing you'll need, how much copper or if you'll do it properly you do not have to worry about it. Come to the Salmon School, bring your reels and while you're learning about copper techniques your reels will be ready to go exactly as they should be! The LOTSA site is now back up and running and there are a few openings left. We had our last meeting last night and I can promise everyone in attendance that this will be the SEMINAR OF THE YEAR!! We will be doing a meet and greet/ social hour in the seminar room on Friday starting around 630. See ya there! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

I can guarantee there will be a discussion on untangling copper and lead core FUBARs. Btw....FUBARs shut down the big boats too. The key is avoiding them in the first place. 😄 Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Boat width has nothing to do with it. In fact, I developed my inline tactics based on tips from friends in Michigan while I was fishing out of a 16' Sylvan! Inlines were MADE for small boat deployment! Not sure why you think TX44s "suck" but would love to hear about it. 44's will whip a big King on a long copper faster than anything!

OR you could just run inlines and never have to worry about it. Redeployment of an outside big board line is all but impossible with long coppers. With inlines it's as simple as can be. We will be discussing these methods and techniques at the LOTSA Super Salmon Seminar on the 24th in Niagara Falls. You will be amazed at how easy inlines are to use once you learn some simple techniques! If you haven't signed up for the class you still can at the LOTSA site---hopefully it's fixed. 😠Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

It will be Friday afternoon/evening at a location to be determined. Most likely at the convention center if we can find a spot. Prob meet around 5. Can't wait! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

On Saturday January 24th LOTSA is once again hosting the Super Salmon School. Capt Greg Gehrig (Top Gun-Oswego), Capt Mark McClutchey (Diabolical- Michigan and Salmon Showdown fame) and myself (Free Spirit-Oak Orchard) will be putting on what we consider to be the most comprehensive, educational information packed seminar ever presented. We will be teaching you to better understand Lake Ontario and we will be intensively covering our favorite techniques. Each of us brings a "specialty" to the class which we will be sharing with everyone. Capt Greg will share his "tournament famous" downrigger programs. Capt Mark will be sharing his deep water meat fishing techniques that have made his team Michigan's biggest tournament threat. I will be sharing my knowledge of reading water, temp graphs and currents as well as my techniques and methods for running multiple "junk lines"--like lead core and copper. This seminar will cover EVERYTHING from deciding where to start, what to start with and how to run it all the way down to playing and landing your fish. If all that wasn't enough to get your attention, we are putting together a truly impressive gift package for everyone in attendance. This package will include actual tackle and baits we use and talk about as well as incredible deals for more tackle from our amazing sponsors. Visit the LOTSA page to sign up today and we are looking forward to seeing you there! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Depending on where you launch from the mudline is usually the key to oldsquaws and scoters. A string of 12-15 run 25 yards off the back of your boat is all that is needed. They aren't the brightest birds---I wear my orange Mustang and occasionally have to "duck". 😄 Good luck on the eider---although one or two are killed in Niagara every other year or so you are about 250 miles too far west. Bluebills, goldeneyes and cans are usually too smart to fall for the "string of ducks behind the fishing boat" trick. Good luck and remember to wear your pfd.
