  1. https://www.glerl.noaa.gov//res/glcfs/glcfs.php?lake=o&ext=sfcur&type=F&hr=03 One chart I look at is the surface currents directions (recorded 30' down by buoys). When arrows point towards shore.......fish closer. When arrows point out.......fish offshore. These will not give you the spot within the spot but will give you macro-direction that help me decide how much gas to burn.
  2. I have not heard an accurate site specific reading up-lake yet. The Olcott pier typically has a least 5' reveal to water level .........now the water is to the top. Hard to find your way back to port!
  3. Not many fishing browns right now. Fish 7' - 50' and you will find them. Use boards, leadcore, split shot ahead of flat lines, small dipsys, downriggers. Small spoons should do the trick but sticks could work also.
  4. This is man-made. There are Lakes and impoundments all over the southern tier that artificially drop water levels in the fall to prepare for the increase water levels of spring. Lime Lake in Machias where I grew up fishing has a 2x6 at the outflow end of the lake that gets lifted in the fall. We had droughts in recent years past so this is the first year to truly show the effects.
  5. With the rain we have had the creeks in Allegany State Park should be perfect.
  6. Based on Arney's marina owner's observations, he noted water was rising in December. I used my snowblower twice this year in Buffalo so I doubt the unusual rise in water was from snow pack melt.
  7. The water has no where to go as the water levrel behind the locks is high. Too late for this year. They traditionally let it out over winter to drop lake levels. We are getting a good dose of what would happen if global warming rose sea levels.
  8. Figured the East end was due for good reports. You guys have surface temps two degrees warmer than the rest of the lake and all the down current arrows have been pointing your direction. Nice haul.
  9. Definitely an experiment gone horribly wrong. Towns are going to loose millions.
  10. Always lots of room at Olcott. Just punking Vince. His giant vessel is like a giant beacon to point your boat towards hehe.
  11. Yes...... everyone follow Vince. He loves company.
  12. Tournament Organizers Micromanagement Minute: In lieu of all the "no wake" restrictions on most bays around marina ports, I would think extra time for anglers to get to the scales would be in order this year. Also extra time from when you can leave the dock and when you can start fishing.
  13. Tuf-line micro lead. I just use a fat black magic marker to down-color it.
  14. Is that a typo on the dates under tournament timeline? Thanks Nick.
  15. Sarah I am going to put an idea in your head. How about looking at moving the spring derby dates to start mid-may and end on Memorial Day? Fishing is better, no conflicts with Mothers Day, the weather is better, and more ports come on line for salmon. More opportunity means more people in the derby. Thank you for your consideration.
  16. You just have to abide by the amount of legal hook points per line. You would be best served to hook up with a tackle store on the Detroit River. I saw an under water video of how many untouched walleyes live below the Peace Bridge on upper Niagara. Would be tailor made for s chugging iron and pencil plugs
  17. And it all starts with bobbers and worms.
  18. Night bite from Hamburg South has been excellent. High water had opened new opportunities.
  19. I have not.

  21. Hit search feature on A-Tom-mik trolling site.
  22. Must have been great fishing as those are nice boxes to not have placed. Thanks for sharing.
  23. Yes there are kings in Lake Ontario. Must be in Niagara county for Pro/am at a secret location. Of course the 25 knot East wind tomorrow will change everything.
