  1. Have not been to the lake in a while , been planning a trip with some friends coming in from outta town for this weekend into early next week . Lotta east winds in the forecast but light winds . I don’t usually do well in east wind fishing but with sustained and light east winds , maybe be ok ??? Anybody have any thoughts ??
  2. That’s awesome Mr Gill, prob feels good getting some drags to scream!
  3. Great fish guys !
  4. I have a fm 196 , I found you gotta keep playing with the trim , and no set thing either , lotta factors , waves and direction , speed of boat , weight in boat etc. I do not have trim tabs .
  5. Sorry for your loss
  6. you have a pm Mr Gill
  7. Great ! Good news
  8. Looks like these two guys were brought up on felony charges , and one of the boats was confiscated yesterday !
  9. Nice!
  10. You mentioned cheek slap , in general a heavier gun shooting a bunch at the range is better on the face and shoulder than a lighter gun . Not sure what your new gun weighs . I didnt see this post , but I recently bought another o/u in 20 guage for upland hunting , much lighter than previous guns , a dream to walk around with in the field behind a pointing dog ( which is addictive ,yes), but a little bumpy shooting 50 rounds at the trap or skeet range . No perfect boat, no perfect gun , evrything is a trade off , unless your loaded and can have multiple boats and multiple guns for every situation
  11. Sounds like a great trip Bill , hope you keep pounding the fish!

  13. Yea she was rolling some . I caught the better grade of fish at night , but not both nights I fished . Best speed was in that 1.6-1.8 spot with a few over 2mph. Still watching wind for this weekend , and Saturday looks great , boat ramp will be crazier than last weekend
  14. Well, i didnt win a new boat or two or place in the money, biggest fish was 9 pounder. Had a great time and a cauggt a bunch of solid fish . Southwind made it doable but by Saturday night it blew some warm water out a little further than i thought . I got out to 46 fow and on Sunday and at the boat ramp 50 fow started firing up guys were saying . As is the case with me i came up a little short . I didnt sleep much fishing a marathon for the weekend , pounded it out day and night. I may give it another shot Friday ,Saturday , and Sunday morning if wind allows . Derby ends sunday 11 or 12 midday. Sent from my SM-A600A using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  15. Sounds like a good trip. Heading to Kansas in December with my 1-1/2 year old Draht, The sand burrs and goat heads are horrible,especially for a wire hair fuzzy feet dog like mine . Gonna trim his paws before we go.. The bird hunting is better out mid west for sure . Sent from my SM-A600A using Lake Ontario United mobile app

  17. Waking up early (middle of the night) and leaving for Huron if wind still checks out to fish the weekend. Im in both derbies . Be great to place but im going fishing ! What was your speed? Guessing around 2mph Sent from my SM-A600A using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  18. Speaking of woodcock. Really hoping to get in on the migration which will be great for young dogs to build thier confidence. Good time to let the dog point , hold when you flush the bird , and have them hold when the bird takes off . And watch the bird lsnd and do it again or shoot. Ill be hunting in franklin and st lawrence county in oct some . If anybody notices a influx of woodcock please let me know . Maybe post it here Sent from my SM-A600A using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  19. This is my dogs first real full season coming up ( 14 months). Hes retrived over 100 doves so far . Putting him on wild birds and homing pidgeons with launchers last week really upped his game on steadiness and also trying to have him hold till the bird falls , mostly for his safety when hunting with other people that just get excited and dont own dogs. But sometimes he gets too excited and breaks but were working on it. Sent from my SM-A600A using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I haveafriend whosan excellant dog trainer and will take dogs out to hunt that are 4 months old . Sent from my SM-A600A using Lake Ontario United mobile app
