bettieanne

Hes in his 20s ( my guess) we were all untouchable then! We need to stay together as this is a dyeing breed. Youngsters now days would rather watch people live their lives thru technology instead of do it!! Just go to a boat launch and look at the age. Dont try walleye fishing bud , u ask anyone anything and all you get is...well in the water... yep that's where I caught it. Most salmon guys are more than generous Sent from my SM-J327V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Took my youngest out and was hopeing to get into some perch. Launched at baldeagle and motored to yanty. There were 5 eagles and more cormorants than I have ever seen except for lil gallo up north, which they leveled. There were proly couple hundred[emoji107] hope this isn't a trend. We all know what they are capable of. Not a bite in creeks so did a pass for brown's to get the boy some fish. Sent from my SM-J327V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Caught it on my lightest rod and when the fish was in the boat I pulled lure out with ease, the bigget fish. After we landed we picked rods and called it a weekend Sent from my SM-J327V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Intrested in your graph, where are you located? Sent from my SM-J327V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Yes sir, it surely isn't helpin us open water guys but if ya cant beaten join them. We can hit the ice to. There still eyes to be had, in 20 yrs of fishing the opener it's never been a place to fill the box. There's been years that it has happened, but far and few between. The bettie Anne has also took on the title of daddy day care boat, with the future anglers on board. A few more years and I will reap the benefits, with them running the rig. There are your go to baits, keep them in the water, seems the eyes turn on and off up there like a switch. For years we would change a 10 rod spread in slow times and end up with one of our go to baits on and thats the one that they hit. Same baits with diffrent lead lengths. It's also a good idea to have many spots to hit. Weather looking decent, good luck to all. Pic loaded from portclinton trip in March, get the blood pumping! Good luck to all!!

Congrats to all with their harvests! Some great bucks here in new york, even with out qdma. With no luck in getin a mature buck on the ground with bow i was looking forward to get the muzzel loader in my hands. Have had 2 good ones in the cross hairs, both on doe an when i gotem both to stop for shot of course. No good shot opportunity, the mature ones always just seem to know when to stop and not offer a good shot.[emoji35] this season ay least Took my 8 yr old out this morning on our newly acquired tradition of the thanksgiving morning hunt,3 rd year in a row. We got our first ever deer this morning!! He was like a seasoned veteran, here she comes, looks like a good one, you should takem dad. What a memory I have to cherish for ever! He was so excited, i couldnt belive it. He literally ran outa the blind to go see it! His first words after was dad i knew you were a awsome hunter! Was nice hearing him say that after the season i have had! Were havin breakfast then we gota go hang in the barn. Sent from my SM-J327V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Joe, i sat in the stand for several hours. I went to stand up to gather my suff to call it a nite and when i did the botton gave way.. was a hang on stand with the steel cables,a fold up. Luckly for me when i hung the set i was short on steps and only set it about 18 ft. When i hit the ground i layed there an thanked the lord that i was ok. Just layed there and looked up at my bow on the holder and said dam i need that for the mornin hunt tomaro.... bac up i went. Will be relpacing all with cables in the off season. Gona repace with linked chain... an yea the buck was the one i sent u pics of earlier this year. [emoji2961][emoji2961][emoji2961] just not my year!!! Fresh start in the am with the knight...now that the deer feel safe around me!!! Sent from my SM-J327V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Finally a cold morning. For the first time i have had to resort to the cross bow. After last nights, yet another failed attempt with the compound. The one i been dreaming of gave me a 30 yrd shot.stickers an kickers... An smack goes my limb on the shootin rail, arrow feel way short of the mark. This ladder stand has literly costed me 3 good ones[emoji2959][emoji35] its got the rail around it, good for takin the kids, bad for dad...yes, new stand will be goin up in this location next yr. He was the 6th mature buck within range, by far the most quality deer i have seen in one bow season over the almost 20 yr of bow hunting. Bac to this creeky stand this morning. Big guy didnt spook am almost got another poke at em. With all my troubles this year i can only laugh about last night. What can go wrong has gone wrong. Lol Also for the first time i fell from my tree.. wear your harnesses, i was rushin as i came bac from camp an wanted to get bac out and said, no i dont want to take the time. I am just greatful to still be able to be out here enjoyin mother nature, will keep on keeping on. Down to 3 sits for bow.... Sent from my SM-J327V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Well its been 4 days since i shot the big 9. No luck on the recovery. Boy it burns deep... when its your passion and you cant controll it. This afternoon will be my first time bac in the woods since.......time to get over it and move on. Looked friday and then saturday. Thanks jakey baby... one day we will have a sucessful recovery..on my end. Even took my good luck charms, my 5 yr old and 8 yr old boys saturday. They made me so proud as they tried to help dad find the deer. After there reward was to go fishin at the oak and candy from narbys!! Yea, during prime time!!! The struggel is real!! I have taken my boys almost as often as i have hunted myself this year. There is no destractions out there, just a father and his son! Some things are more important that a big buck.. Well thats what i tell myself..Good luck to all, still time left to get it done. Sent from my SM-J327V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

What a morning!! Had two huge deer come by in the dark. One gruntin up a storm. All i could see was silouets. Covered up with mature bucks. Blew it on a big split g2 buck. Doe busted me he was with then he circled around me. Had 40 yrd shot on em but not comfortable with a long poke. Passed shot. He was the 4th mature buck that i just wasnt comfortable with shot on. What a roller coaster ride this season has been! Then i look up at 815 an see a good one cruzin. Hit em with the can an hete he comes. Knew em from trail cam pics an knew he was a shooter. Came to 30 6rd ckean broad side an stoped em an let it fly. Looked like a good hit. Ran off tail tucked hard. Gavem 45 min. Recoverd arrow clovered in bloor then backed out. Gona givem a few hours an go back in......3 rd sit on this property an seen all but one of the mature bucks i had on camera. Sent from my SM-J327V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Hunting westside of monroe county. Just doesnt seem like these bucks are to fired up yet. Been seeing lots of 1 an 2 yr olds responding well to the calls, but no real chaseing. Did just have a decent 8 go by following a doe, but were walking like early october. 2 bucks an a few doe this mornin so far. Hunted my camp over the weekend, bottom part of stuben an it was on. Had a good one at full draw, not the shot i wanted to take. Sent from my SM-J327V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Joe, does that gold one have a extendabl handel?

Musky, i will pm u

Had a great trip! The fishin was pretty average for a opener weekend. We got our fish all over the place, we fished from deep in the bays to out on the lake an each spot was giving up fish. My dad wanted new scenery so that's what I have him. Lots of marks on the graph but wad tricky getting them to bite. Had my dad an son on the boat an 4 generations of fisherman at our cottage!
