Sorry it wont let me post to your original posting.

Adam, seen u guys out there today we were on Artpark. the NW wind was rippin so using kwikies for us was tough. Where were u guys using kwiks Stella. We were blue starcraft...t2yl.

Erin, Sept/Oct= great king action, start to browns and when slow some great smallmouth fishing..especially after a north wind.

Nov/Dec= steelhead moving in and dec on the bar over the last 3 years has been great for lake trout. if lake erie is not frozen over which it hasnt been for the last few years your are very subject to big wind mudding up lake erie and ruining the lower river. I think that was the case from nov. till erie froze over this year.

Jan IMO is usally the toughest month.

Mid Feb/March/April= steelhead are avaliable, huge walleye and lakers. the only thing that can shut it down is when they pull the ice boom and that shot of ice and cold water can turn the river off for a week or two. Normally they pull the boom when the temps are on a rise so the fish can find more comfortble water somewhere else...canada

If you are ever out this way for anything gimme a call and if i'm not working i'll take ya.

Yep, saw you out there, we attempted one drift at Artpark, but the wind made it tough, so we went down across from Stella on the Canadian side. I'm not sure what the drift name is, but it is long and straight, and it was out of the wind. Several other NY boats were fishing there, looked like everyone was catching fish.

cool..yeah thats the pine drift very productive..especially the tail end have caught some huge lakers at the end.
