Paying attention to detail. Plain and simple. That is something that can be easily over looked by lots.I'll keep it in mind. Maybe shut all off, once I'm where I need to be. Worth a shot. And...longer leads, 75 to 100. Sent from my SM-N900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

You are correct. Vitamin d. Is a important part. Alewives have very little.Sent from my SM-N900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

They also have more vitamin D than the alewives. Sent from my SM-N900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Lake Michigan is where they are getting the eggs for Hatchery. They actually bust through the ice in January through February to get the big boat out to the center of Lake Michigan. They stocked over 50,000 in Lake Ontario last year. That's another reason why blue and silver and purple and silver is a good spoon choice out deep. Whoops, I let that one out of the bag. I haven't heard of any reports of them harvesting spawn eggs from Ontario yet. Sent from my SM-N900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Remember it's a food Web we are trying to create. Atlantics and LT love cisco. Salmon love alewifes. There is a prism of life here that has to work together. We are trying to play god the best we can on this lake. It starts with the plankton. Which brings other issues, (zebra mussels,etc). even the bait fish needs food.

The Cisco efforts, (herring) is already underway. Deepwater cisco have started in 2012/2013 Ranging around 10000 stock fingerlings. Oswego and Irondequoit bay. Might be why you catch salmon out deep. Cisco like deeper cold water. Sent from my SM-N900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Lol, not at all did I say that. I said water was cleaner.Sent from my SM-N900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

By far cleaner, almost 50% cleaner than 30 years ago. That's why people think the fishing is no good.Some get set in their ways. A very must to adapt with the lake changes. Clearer water, equals sharper fishing skills. Long leads, copper, fluorocarbon,etc. As well as location and timing. Get them away from the boat.

The article states, "it's not lack of nutrients". It's alewifes are at their max northern limit in the great lakes. Any further north, they would just not survive. So every hard winter kills off alewifes. That's what I got out of it anyway.Sent from my SM-N900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
