    Buddy and I hit the river last weekend. Managed to get our limits jigging. He had never caught a walleye from lake o or SLR before and every fish he caught was his biggest ever. Including a 30” 11 lbs. All in all a great trip

    Haha no problem. Never want to catch them but they are a fun fish to catch. I love jigging them over trolling. I tie up my own hairjigs ranging from 1/2 to 2 oz.

    Got out over the weekend jigging channel shoals with heavy hairjigs and managed a few. Caught a massive drum as well. Wish I wasn’t solo for a better picture. What a fight. Bite is just starting where I fish

    Is the lake free of ice at this point?

    Animal art taxidermy in Mexico. Fran moshier. He doesn’t advertise himself quite like the other shops but his work is great. My dad got a walleye mounted by him 25 years ago and it still looks great. I’ve gotten some other fish done by Him and they look very good as well. There’s a lot of good taxidermists around.

    I also have been trying to learn the river eyes on my weekends in the islands. My uncle got a camp this year up there so I visit as often as possible. Had some decent success but the fishing is inconsistent at best most days. The constant northeast wind never seems to help either. All the bigger walleyes in the photos were released with the biggest so far this year being 30” and 11 lbs.

    Yeah I’m all for the study of the Ontario eyes as their movements kind of fascinate me but it does suck to see fish dead

    Do all the fish they net die? Just look it in the pictures

    I’ve wanted to get up there the last few years around opener but with high water and unpredictability it just hasn’t worked out. Sounds like it’s been difficult at best
  13. Getthenet2
    How was the bite on opener up there if you don’t mind me asking
  14. Getthenet2
    Looking for a 2 up

    I’d be interested if you were in cny
  16. Getthenet2
    Are you located in mass though?
  17. Getthenet2
    If there’s some available I’m also interested in the same thing

    Hey guys so I’m thinking about trying BRB this weekend at some point. Might wait until Monday for the crowds to die down but I’ve never actually fished it. I’ve read some articles and old reports. Is the delta of the river the best bet to start? I’m not a troller. I like to jig mostly but I’ll throw cranks and sticks if I have to. Just looking for any basic tips. I know it’s a popular spot

    Here is what I was talking about. https://www.google.com/amp/www.cbc.ca/amp/1.4191585

    I also believe they did actually stock Lake Ontario recently on the Canadian side. I remember reading something about them releasing so many walleyes into the Lake

    I'll be honest. In 20 years of fishing(I'll never claim to have the knowledge that someone much older than I has) I've never seen the perch population struggle in the big water I fish. I hit the big spring runs of the st Lawrence and on Lake Ontario. Despite no limit in those areas not one year have I said man the numbers are down. Every year seems just as amazing as the last. Some days you can catch hundreds of pounds. I'll only sell occasionally in the spring and that's it. Otherwise I've never kept more than 50. However in smaller bodies of water inland I could see why a 25 fish limit would be smart. The big water I think can sustain the population but the smaller bodies of water I could see overfishing create more of as issue just an opinion on the matter

    I'm sure based on what you're saying you guys self impose a slot. I personally make a lot of trips to the river in summer for walleyes and rarely keep any larger walleyes. Unless the fish is hurt on the fight or I cannot get it revived which has unfortunately happened before I release any walleyes over 8lbs. If I could pick and choose I'd take 3 just barely legal walleyes and catch one ten pounder for the fight a picture and a release. I have fortunately seen a few guys putting the big walleyes back this year. Love seeing it

    We caught one like that off of cape last summer. Nice looking walleye but it barely had any white meat to it
  24. Getthenet2
    It's unfortunate because we all love talking about fishing, fish, the water, our catches, but in today's age where when you post on here or any of the other sites or groups you're telling thousands. It's easy to kill spots which in turn has led fisherman to be a lot less talkative in many ways.
