I will not be going to the meeting due to not having power and staying late at work.

I think the lake trout stocking goal is now 400,000.

Rochester State of the Lake Meeting Who is going? I will be there.

Unfortunately, this impacts all businesses. Bad business makes people gun shy when sending people money. It is sad to see this happen because he had a good thing going. Making it in a flooded tackle market is not easy to do.

Thanks guys. Competition does not bother me.

You are very welcome Chris. Good luck with the benefit.

Fished Friday afternoon with my son and did very good. He counted them when we got home and told me we had 33. I counted the filets and had 86 filets. It was fast and furious for one hour and slow the rest of the time we were there. Lots of 6-7"ers that went back for the future. I was shocked at the amount of teeth marks in the perch.

Or you are letting it out to fast. Sometimes if you let it out too fast and you are not going perfectly straight, you will hang up on a wire diver.

I buy clear tubing from Lowes. I cut it into 5" tubes and slit both ends. You feed the line through the tube and wrap the leader around the tube. I will try to remember to take a photo and post it tomorrow.

I have mine in Cabelas flasher storage bags. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Not that I know of. It is so muddy at that time of the year that you wouldn't be able to see them. I have caught lakers and Browns in March with smelt in their stomachs near the Genny. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Of you are fishing the Olcott/Wilson/Niagara Bar area lakers will be shallower. I'm not saying you will not find lakers every once and a while shallower but the majority stay deeper. When I had my boat in I bay, we used to fish lakers in 180-220' of water in early spring. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

The lakers start to head to their normal waters in early to mid April. On warmer winters, sometimes earlier. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
