    With the overhead ice, the emeralds will be in the Niagara.

    7 locations sampled........7! We trollers know 90% of the fish are in 10% of the water.

    30’s for riggers- plenty of line capacity for 30lb test.

    Never had them flip.

    After reviewing the article which depicts the locations of the bottom trawl survey I see some real problems with the accuracy of the methodology. I am shocked at how few areas are sampled on Lake Michigan. They have not adapted the same wider sampling strategies now being deployed on Lake Ontario. Keep in mind the net only opens to 18 m or 59’ and stays down for only 5 minutes per sampling. There are huge voids in the sampling locations on Michigan. I can telll you there were a few times when I was on the Kaho when the fishfinder showed heavy bait under the boat but with as much as 2000’ of cable out, we missed the fish. I know the water is much less fertile than Ontario but I can’t help but think there may be more fish than is being reported.

    Double Keeled otter boats. Because you can run them in any weather.

    I think they found zero alewives in last years Huron trawls.

    But not as warm as the last two mild winters. Bottom temps of Lake Ontario is two degrees colder than last two. https://www.glerl.noaa.gov/res/glcfs/compare_years/compare_years_o.html

    I think we are in for a bi-polar warm-cold March the way the jet stream has had such deep troughs.....which probably means lots of wind also. The lake is pretty warm. It has not quite reached complete isothermy as there are still some islands of 41 degree water offshore. Those are where the kings are wintering. Having three banks of 40 degree water evenly spaced out in the different basins, I am predicting the whole South shore is going to enjoy spring kings. https://www.glerl.noaa.gov//res/glcfs/glcfs.php?lake=o&ext=vwt&type=N&hr=00

    If you can’t put your boat into your marina slip you can’t fish. The topic is related to access.

    http://msue.anr.msu.edu/news/lake_superior_water_levels_nearing_monthly_record_highs_msg18_breederland18 This might be a good topic to discuss at the meetings.

    Look at Lyman’s. They have a cray action. You can find them up at the St Catherine’s Bass Pro.

    The pictures say it all. Casey looking completely surprised in the first photo like....."wholly crap we caught a brown in February!" and then the smiles come as the warm fuzzy feeling sets in.........and then there is Rob........who never smiles in outdoor photos. Nice work boys.

    Intelligent men wrote those amendments, not aggressive. Your strange usage of the English language make me think you are perhaps a Russian Bot stirring up trouble.

    Buffalo. Everything I have seen until now suggest that we will not have an early spring.

    Robins showed up today on the wave of warm air.

    WOW. Beautiful laker. How are the launches?
  22. Gill-T
    If you launch at Olcott, you don't need fluoro as the water along the shore has stain. Leader down to tiny barrel and run 12 lb trilene to a 30 lb duolock snap. Some sticks have better action by taking off the split ring and tying direct.

    I think all the new shotgun manufacturers cut corners. I always wanted a Browning Auto-5 so I picked up the new version and it felt and looked so poorly made I walked over to the used rack and bought one built in 1952

    No birds today. Hunted Bear Creek outside of Franklinville. Too many predator tracks for my liking. Fischer tracks, saw a huge red fox. Fox in heat smells in the woods. Dogs got their work out.

    Every police station should be built next to a school.
