    The push is to promote the king fishery. Why not promote ALL of the world class species we have in Lake Ontario? The trout fishery holds the fishery together when the salmon fishing is tough or non existent.

    That laker was in 2012 before Dave Chilson changed the format. No steelhead in the spring derby this year. He took the money and doubled the prizes in the salmon division. The way it is going, he is going to pocket a lot of money when the salmon division does not fill up.

    They are sold

    9 lightly used spin doctors. $60.00 and free shipping to the lower 48. Local pickup for $55.00. http://s29.photobucket.com/user/GAMBELL/media/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zps1185e4b5.jpg.html

    Any less than 200yds gets me a little uneasy about running it. If you run it on a board, you are losing a huge percentage of your backing for a fish to run. I hope you guys are ready to chase!

    Most of the steelhead are in the tribs right now spawning. There are some fall spawn fish out in the lake but they are usually found in the warm near shore waters.

    There is a floating barrier across the mouth of the Niagara that holds back the ice on Lake Erie. Google it and do some reading it is interesting. There is also a camera at the mouth that shows it.

    I wouldn't be surprised if the Rochester basin has some kings before the bar. The nice colored Genny water will warm up faster than the ice filled Niagara water this spring.

    300 yds of 50lb power pro and 350' of copper.

    I have one John. If you want to check it out, let me know. Same drag as the Saltist reels and same gear ratio. I fit a 350 copper on it with 300' of 50lb power pro backing.
  11. GAMBLER
    That's what I thought Scott.

    I use 250lb power pro for my plainer line. The only time I had it break was when a sailboat ran over my plainer board. The releases zip down the line.

    No need to see your rigs on the finder. Bang the ball in the mud and then raise it up a foot or two. Seeing your rigs is the last thing you should worry about. Speed, lure selection and having fish where you are fishing are the most important things to worry about.

    5 to 20' back from the ball. Put one long and one short. The longer one will need to stay a touch higher off the bottom.

    Battle scares from running the creek?

    More than likely. When we get an upwelling in winter we see 39 degree water again until the wind shifts. Just like temp swings in summer but not as drastic.

    Congrats john. I hope you won the lottery to pay that fuel bill!

    You are correct jimski. What you physics teacher did not tell you is if the surface cools and continues to cool it will push colder water to the bottom. Our temp sensor is on the bottom of the lake in 50' of water. We see 39 degrees for a long time in early winter. Once the up layer of the water column cools, it is gone unless we get strong east winds and upwelling in the winter. I will keep trusting our calibrated equipment.

    Should have known that was Kyle!

    There was a guy on the ice on Cranberry when I went by yesterday afternoon. CRAZY!
  21. GAMBLER
    Gained another degree today. 37 degrees at the intake.
  22. GAMBLER
    There is still ice but lots of water between the ice and shore. Not enough open water to get the perch bite going yet.
  23. GAMBLER
    Lake Ontario deep water temp has gone up 2 degrees in the past 2 weeks, 3 degrees since march 1st. It bottomed out at 33 degrees in the middle of winter and now it is up to 36.

    Also make sure that the numbers are not touching any pin stripe. I got a ticket on Ibay for that.

    Hallett Bait and tackle has prices that are hard to beat. I have purchased a ton of stuff over the last year and a half from them and did not find better prices.
