  1. That's good to hear. I'm not surprised I always thought 99.9% of fishermen and women are honest and know what it's like to lose equipment. Fish stories don't count.
  2. Fished yesterday started in 80 ft headed north along with three or four other boats Few fish marked mostly deep. Two rigger, two divers out deep. Got to 400ft with the same boats heading north and got our first hit. Water very bumpy not 1 foot wave but more like 3ft. After two small steelhead two small kings and a couple releases we quit. Lake started to calm and the little fleet we were with continued north.
  3. I don't target steelhead but catch them best when I put spoons and flasher flys in 50 to 60 degrees. This time of the year that would be off shore. Latest DEC fishing report for lake Ontario- "Target staging kings at first light in around 100 feet of water with gear run in bottom half of water column, and slide deeper to 150-250 feet of water as day progresses. Trollers are also running well offshore for more stable waters of 400 feet plus for a solid mix of king salmon and steelhead". Run lures in top 100 feet. Trollers are catching brown trout in the nearshore zone at depths around 50-70 feet on medium spoons run near the bottom. Catch numbers improve the further you head east. For more information, see the Pacific Salmon Fishing on Lake Ontario page.
  4. It's a day late but the down temps yesterday were colder than the day before. fished the 80 to 100 fow . Almost all fish were high, the biggest came from 30' all kings. Nice to have down temp.
  5. Never sure what to do when there's no mud line or color to the water early in the season for the Browns but I keep a pair of 5/0 Hammerhead spinners with a peanut tied to them, go out to 75 fow and put them on the bottom.
  6. Saturday nite at the end of the day on a tip that the walleye bite gets good soon on the river, I took two fat 20 inch walleye on three drifts around sunset bottom bouncing worm harness in 20 fow. Wind was perfect for the drift. Thanks to the person who put the picnic table near the flooded boat ramp.
  7. You were close, another 100fow was good friday. Bright colored flies and paddles 200 out. Gator and coyote spoons down 75 to 100. 2.5 at the ball. 75 ft had bigger fish, slightly out of temp.
  8. If I recall according to the program they were introduced. This may be the link-http://www.makingwavesdocumentary.com/ See this link for bait shop in Lewiston they may have some info. http://www.outdoorsniagara.com/downriver.htm
  9. I am also waiting for reports on smelt. PBS had an interesting documentary on the great lakes about invasive species anyway smelt was one topic and they run when the temperature gets to 42 degrees.
  10. How long do we have to get the Trophy can pic in? You may win with that one.
  11. Didn't you ever see Jurassic Park? You can't stop mother Nature.
  12. If you want a guarantee you'll catch fish,leave your net home.
  13. nygooseduster26 or anyone out there, what kind of temps are you finding? Thanks
  14. My brother came across a book called Lake Erie Smallmouth, this book published in 1999 is selling for almost $400 and people are buying it (some sites are sold out). http://www.addall.com/New/submitNew.cgi ... spCurr=USD and at Amazon- http://www.amazon.com/Lake-Erie-Smallmo ... 0964330938 I know this is a Lake Ontario site but some of you might know whats up with it. Thanks
