Thanks Adam, I have a good fishing buddie coming to town and i hope like hell the conditions are good. He has been in a shanty smelling his gas all winter, he needs to get out and catch something that fights.

Doug

Hi guys, was wondering if anyone knows how the fishing at the bar is? jigging/drifting, or if the steelhead bite is still good at stella or artprk? I dont even know how the river condions are so any help would be great. I plan on making the trip up on saturday. Thanks

Doug

Welcome to the site, when that bug bites it seems to bite the wallet and give some violent head shakes and run of with everything i have.

Doug

how does one of those fght in comparising with a salmon? very cool fish, the aquarium in Cape Vincent has some of those.

Doug

And i dont want to sell them seperate, sorry.

doug

The only thing you can teach me is how to sit in a hut on the ice and cath some perch. Call me when you catch a fish over 1 pound , and i dont think you would know what to do with 20# except floss your teeth with it.

Thanks junkie , looks like i will be there!

Doug

If anyone is interetsed in a old motor(guessing 60's), hasnt been used in a couple years. Runs but needs some work (runs at trolling speed but when given gas slips into neutral or something, told the guy at raz and he said something about a clutch doggie or something ?) anyways if interested get in touch , just looking to get it out of garage, just give a offer .

Also have two old gas tanks (basically antiques) pump on the gas can, really old evinrude ones, if anyone is interested.

have two new sealines sg47 both on 9'6" heavy daiwa firewolfs. They both have 20# big game line.

What would you guys say the average catch is there ? never been there but have heard its good pike fishing, thanks.

Doug

Yankee , i would love to have your boat on the river . No floating ice though

doug

Hey guys , was there today too , got at the upper stella drift , i have been doing real good there , monday i got five from that drift , seems like a great kwikfish drift . Was there from like 8-1:00 . Reeldiel did someone ask you if you wanted a ride in the parking lot ?

A couple from monday

Today went 5 for 6 . Four on minnows one on Kwikie . Was pretty windy and rainy early got better though . Had a blast , time to take a break , four trips from hamlin in one week , took its toll but was well worth it .

Doug

Went 2 for 3 today both caught on quickfish . Here are pics from last couple trips . Got one in artpark and one at stella , lost another at stella .

Thanks alot guys , i have a sixteen foot starcraft w/ 25 horse merc. . Sunday you guys were in really close and seemed to be hardly moving , i went pass you a couple times , once i got pretty close . I didnt realize it was you until i got home and read your post and reconized someone in the picture (guy with greyish goatee). im not sure which guy u were . I am still pretty new to the niagara , been there with my boat three times and im getting the hang of it , i really appreciate all the help you guys just gave me , thanks . oh and sorry about spelling your screenname reeldial , duh .

I will post my result from friday , good luck to you all .

See ya

Doug

Adam , those are some nice fish for sure , you and reeldial are really smacking them . I was up there on sunday and wednsday , will be going friday too . Sunday was very windy and i had trouble getting good drifts at times managed one 9 pound brown on a minnow , also used kwikfish and eggs , I was at artpark wathcing reeldial smack em . Wednsday whe i got there the bait shop was closed so i used kwikfish mostly , got one ten pound bow and lost another . I was using a K-7 greenscale with red nose , what size do you use ? K-5 , i think K-7 is to big . Friday i hope to have minnows and hope to get more than one fish

Doug

If anyone knows what the water conditions are , please let me know . I dont know if the rain we had killed it , if not i will go tomorow

Hello to all , The site looks GREAT !!

My name is Doug and i live in Hamlin , grew up in Brockport . Do pretty most my fishing at sandy creek . I am pretty new to salmon and trout trolling , and i am spending alot of time fishing sandy (before freeze) and the genny now , learning float tactics and so on . My mother and father bought a cottage on Wilson bay , Cape Vincent when i was five , so i was very lucky to have that at a young age . Love to fish the St.Lawrence river , Mud bay , Chamount , Black river . My greatest moment was when i was about thirteen years old . We had a 12' aluminum with a 3 horse (I trolled everywere) . me and my cousin who was also thirteen were out trolling along the beach of wilson bay , when i cought and landed a 44" muskie on large jointed Rebel silver and black . We also had no net , my cousin was so scared to grab it by the gill , he was crying . lol but he did do it . My best fishing moment yet

There are so many places that i havent been to in our own state , and so much to learn . It is truly great to have such a vast amount of knowledge at my fingertips , and to learn from the areas best fisherman , i am greatfull and appreciate it greatly .

Thanks guys

Good luck to all this spring , be safe !

once u find the silt line , do you want to keep all lures in the dirty water or do you want to keep one in the clean , one in the dirty ? Is the dirty water generally warmer than the clean ? This will be my first season trolling for trout & salmon in the spring . I cant wait

He is probably trolling just muskie and walleye , the river gets very deep too .

That is the story i heard , the other picture is not the same fish . I dont think you are getting that fish in without a hook in its mouth . Im sure some of you remember i posted those pictures a while back with the same response of it not being cought in canada , im sure stories really change around when they gets some internet circulation . None the less both those pictures are amazing no matter where it was cought or how

I have been doing masonary for almost nine years now , since i graduated highschool . Do brick , block , concrete (stamped) , worked on Tom Golisanos house this fall .

someone decided to drive their suv on to irondequoit bay last night around midnight

no one was injured , i got this of d&C website

awesome sight , i figured he was out of clayton . I know its a big secret , were he catches them . God knows you dont want to share info, someone might be right in your spot the next day
