Launched there this week and tried 3 different cards to pay. All rejected. Got a note on my car when done fishing to call a number and give them my card number. Checked the machine and there was a note on machine saying pay with cash or call a number and give them credit card info. Giving a strange # your card info sounds like a great idea!

He was smarter than me, I tried fishing skinny water all day from Genny to I bay and just washed lures. At least his son got to reel something in.

I thought the same thing when Bill sent me the pic! I said “your favorite fish” lol

Talk with Rick (Yankee Troller). He is a bird expert and also sells that style boat at Krenzer. I am sure he can help. I have a 196 fishmaster but my bird is mounted in the dash. Rick

You did much better than me. Went 4-4 with all fish on stick baits. Nothing on spoons as I tried orange and then green spoons also down 6-8 feet. I also ran chinook diver out 15 with spoons and no luck. I stayed around shipbuilder since I didn’t want to mess with all the boats around Webster, maybe that was a mistake. I worked around 10 FOW and later in morning slide out to 20. The thing I found odd was my speed over ground was reading 2.8 and multiple boats passed me on the troll making me think I was going too slow. I was happy for first trip out boat ran perfect and we caught some fish. Good job and good luck this year.

Remington Rifled Slugs for my 870 pump.

Glad you found him! Nice job!

When I shot mine on Sunday I thought I missed it when I 1st checked. Shot with 12 gauge at 70 yards with open sights since I was hunting a thicket. Buck jumped after I shot it and ran into thicket where I couldn’t see it anymore. I figured there would be blood all over the snow. Nope, didn’t see blood when I 1st checked and was heart broken thinking I blew my shot at a big one. Upon a closer look I found hair and blood splatter on the trees behind where the deer was standing. So I knew it hit it and there was an exit but there was very little blood in the snow. Waited an hour for buddy to come track with me. Followed the tracks in the snow with very little blood. Now I was thinking I wounded it and that was worse than missing. Buck only ran 20-30 yards in thicket. Double lung shot but hardly any blood trail. Good luck and keep us posted if you find it.

Hunted with the same guys I fished the Sandy Creek Shootout with. I saw over 20 deer opening day with at least 8 bucks I passed up for hopes at one of the 3 bigger ones we have on camera. Changed my spot for Sunday and it paid off. He was with 2 does and luckily only ran 20 yards. One thing I love about hunting is the memories busting balls with the guys and friendships. Love hunting and fishing with friends, a deer or a fish is a bonus.

In my defense, I have no issues netting the fish. Keeping the fish in the net after taking the hooks out while the fish is still in the water is a different story! 1 time Bill, 1 time! Lol

We had to force Bill to reel in that fish. He is a great host and likes to let his guests catch all the fish but we luckily talked him into reeling in the big boy. He deserves to have some fun after all he does for his guests. He doesn’t like coming on my boat since I make him reel in some fish. Lol

Bill’s fish was around 25 and mine was around 20

Whaler is the laker at the taxidermy?

Went out of Sandy this afternoon. Fished 350-470. Blank screen. Picked up and headed into 150. Fished 150-90. Marked some bait and fish in 120-90. Only 1 skippy king. Had high hopes going offshore but maybe I didn’t go far enough. Rick

Nice job Bill

Nice job boats were scattered all over out of Braddocks

Fished 150 to 400. 1 king in 360.

We will find them somehow between our 2 boats

Manny if you want to replace your sunglasses with Oakley’s send me a PM. I get a discount being a 1st responder. At least I can help with something. Rick
