  1. Was out yesterday down by eagle bay. The black ice is definitely melting and by afternoon the top layer was crumbling apart. The ice was also making those late ice cracks all day. The conditions changed big time in two days time. Also, the shoreline up in Inlet by the channel is shot. Be safe and enjoy. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  2. Yes there is. Was nice yesterday. Jay Davies
  3. No I haven't. I'm I'm the southern Adirondacks north of Utica. That's a lot of bass! Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  4. I have not, but location for particular times of year is key. Let me know when you plan to head up there next season and I'd be happy to help. Also, yes, there are big pike in there.Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  5. Impressive. I'm still working on a fish of that size Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  6. That's a nice fish!Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  7. Not really. All big fish I'm around are released. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  8. Those look like Baffin's and are the best cold weather boot made Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  9. Oh, nope. That wasn't him lol. It doesn't surprise me a bit. That's a good spot. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  10. That may have been my buddy. His fish was 42.75" @ 22 lbs Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  11. Sure it wasn't a tiger ? That lake never ceases to amaze me. The lakers can be tough without the right expensive equipment once the water warms up. I usually get into a few good ones through the ice. Jay Davies
  12. If you must know, the only reason it was there was so I could reach down with the handle to get the line out of the groove the friction makes on the underside of the ice. I do not gaff any fish. I do not fish with people who gaff fish.Jay Davies
  13. Very good. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

  15. Thank you very much for all the insight! I just so happen to have a bunch of Red October tubes. They are very versitile. I'm also very familiar with proper releasing techniques and fish handling. Its something I can't stress enough when I bring guys a long on the ice to target big fish. I thank you for bringing it up and making the extra effort to educate! The boat control will take some getting used to, but as with anything, time will make us all better. I can't wait to get out there. I hope everyone is very successful this season! Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  16. Thank you. I have not fished 7th, nor do I have much knowledge of it. I have seen a couple guys have been fishing 7th a bit this year for the LL salmon, but didn't have much luck. Although, that doesn't mean anything. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  17. A couple local younger guys were really after me this year to get them on some pike. I told them their best chance was the last week of the season. Both of them ended up getting their biggest pike yet, one of which beat his personal best both days. The first day, he caught an 18lber, and the second iced one that went 22.8lbs. The other guys was not so lucky, as we lost one of his that was 40"+ at the hole due to a poor hook set. He still caught a nice 13lber, that was his biggest fish yet. Overall, it was a pretty amazing two days pike fishing. Jay Davies
  18. I iced my biggest Fulton Chain laker yet @ 32.5" on 3/14/15. Still lots of ice and it's not nearly over yet. Jay Davies
  19. How many of you guys on the rivers vertical jig for these fish? I've been out trolling on charter trips, but when I watched Jon Bondy's vertical technique, I was very interested in trying that style at my first pure bread. I get bored to easily trolling, although I know how effective it can be covering lots of water. I'm just more interested in experiencing 100% of the fight from start to finish, not just reeling the fish in. I plan on trying my luck a bit up on the St. Lawrence this year, and any help will be greatly appreciated! Jay Davies
  20. July/ August are probably the worste months to target them. They have a very good way of hiding in the depths. That lake has so much structure, its very hard to even decide on a starting point. Your best bet for open water is the month of May there. I do ok on that lake, but it is very challenging. Also, couldn't agree more with the C&R. I'd love to see a slot limit to keep those good 34-38" breeders exempt. I know of 12-15 pike over 40" that were kept this winter just on one body of water alone! And it is a relatively small reservoir, which I can't understand how it bounces back producing monsters every year. Its got to catch up eventually, ruining it for the next generations to come. I release every pike I catch. There are better species to eat. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  21. Very nice. One of my goals for 2015 is the pure bread. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  22. One of many 😎 Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  23. Anytime, thank you! Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  24. So far I love it. As long as you keep it semi warm, the battery will last. You download an app and can control it from a smart phone. Or manually on the camera. Pic quality is a touch better than the gopro I think.Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  25. I wish I didn't have the dark shirt on to better bring out the markings on the fish. But, I was alone and getting a picture was a chore in its self. I'm control my Sony.action cam on my phone with my right hand. That's why I have the fish supported with my legs lol. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
