Another good tip. Thanks Mike!

That fish right there doesn't only belong on the wall.... It belongs in the Hall ..... of fame for walleyes. Did not think NY had a walleye like that! WOW!!

Thanks Mike. I did not know there was a difference as to wire or mono dipseys. I got the number 1 Luhr Jensens. They did not say wire or mono on the package.

Wow... Standards are really really high. Beautiful fish!

Larry you were right on the money there. We would have caught more walleyes if we could have kept the dipseys from twisting. All our fish came on the downriggers. This was my biggest ever. It was a fat 30 incher. Thanks so much for the tip.

We launched at the Cat. Sturgeon point has a nice launch and is just past Buffalo.

Nice catch! big one in there too!

8 pounds and up are some big walleyes! How come they are not on the American side? Canadians authorities seem to like to hassle American fisherman

Good Job Justin. I know it is a good good feeling to help people catch fish.

Those fish are jaw droppers! Kudos to you. Just Outstanding!

I got to wondering after looking at the monsters that Chas0218 put up in his 08/15 post. I think a fish over 10 pounds should go on the wall! That is just me though. What does it have to be for everyone else?

Another real nice catch. WTG!

Thanks all for suggestions. Just what I needed Justin!

I am making my planer board mast. I have the right sized pipe. I am going to mount it in my front seat receptacle on my boat. I need a wooden dowel, circular 2 1/4 inches in diameter 5 inches long. A 1 inch hole drilled in the center of the dowel so that I can slide the pipe through and it will sit securely in my seat receptacle and not wobble from side to side from pressure of planer board lines. If anyone can help me out, will be happy to pay for your work.. Thanks Frank

I tried to put a picture in. It did not look like it took. Sorry if it is there twice. When I pulled into the park and ride at 3:30 where I was gonna meet Mike, there was another guy with a big white Lund waiting. Whoever he was meeting got there before Mike and they took off. We saw them aways off out on the water. When I got back to drop Mike at the park and ride, the guys with the white Lund pulled up behind us. Of course we had to talk with them They had done really well too.

Got to give a shout out to Mike Engle. Had to get up at 2:30 to be able to meet up with him but it was well worth it. Was in walleye heaven. Caught 9 and lost two. One of which would have gone over 10 easy. You know what the bigger ones feel like. This one was taking some drag. I will dream about that fish. About the trip. I had the boat and the makeshift planer board mast. Mike brought rods, tackle, and his planer boards. My offerings caught nothing. All the fish were caught on his home made spinners. He had more than enough rods to fish different depths with leadcore. We caught nothing off my downriggers. We could see different packs of boats but Mike made sure we stayed well away from them. We may have had two boats within a couple hundred yards all morning. We could see the windmills and the fence but kept to ourselves and landed fish. Mike knows his stuff and it was a day I will always remember because more big walleyes came into the boat than ever. I have fished St Lawrence many times, Oneida a couple but where we were tops them all for big walleye. A world class fishery and a great guy!
