Silver Fox

Many years ago we had an old lady as our spotter and they called off fishing after 2 hours, so we had a 8 mile ride south to olcott w/ HUGE waves from the east. It was pretty tense and we actueally had the life vests out! Well this lady wouldn't stop talking so my dad finally said,"shut the f#@k up lady!". We thanked him later after we cleaned our shorts.

Also kicking the crap out of the fish during a thunderstorm and downpour. We ended up winning.

Too many others along w/ lots of pukers.

Nice job rob! We'll be out this weekend. Call me.

We put the braid away come july. Flea magnet. If you only have 2 dipsey rods I would go w/ the wire for sure. You will be sorry by july if you don't.

Ended up w/ 3 bows this morning. all around that 100' area. 25,35 and dipsey 50' back. 3 diff. color 28's took the fish.Looked like kings on the bottom w/ 42degree water 80' down. Couldn't get them to go. Today wasn't very good but it was an improvement over the last 2 weeks.

The temp was 42 at 60' and 43 in 25' when we left at noon. But it seems the fish followed the bait and it's setting up nicely for this month. In the past 3 or so years we've had awesome fishing from may through june w/ big bows and coho's. It looks like this year too if the weather gets more consistent.

The bait is on shore and plenty of fish on the graph in 60fow. A bow, laker and missed one is how it went today. I don't think it will be long for the fishing to pick up. The fish were down to about 50' and lots of lock jaw. Back out on sat.

Good fish Rick. I wish I were up there w/ ya. Sandy sucks right now.

Fished on a buddy's boat sat. am and managed 1 laker fishing 20'-80' of water. Fished on our boat sunday am and managed 1 for 2 w/ a brown. Their were about 6-8 boats out and my brown and another boats 17# king was the only fish I heard taken. The last 2 weeks have been real bad. I've never seen it so depressing. I'm going one day this week before the weekend . I'll report after. It should improve soon cause it can't get any worse!

Sailboats always have the right of way over a power drivin vessel even if your trolling. Unfortunately he pulled a "dick" move on you.

I cleaned B@E out fri afternoon. Sorry

"nuthin but net" keeps their boat at sandy creek marina. If your going to fish sandy I would try a new name. They fish quite a bit. Sorry for the bad news.

You have a PM.

Yes the rubberband works. I use it on the leadcore.

We'll be there sat. morning to put in also. Bruce gave the ok to a buddy of mine for thursday evening . If he's in, were in!

I think the fish are coming tues. the 22nd. Bob holdon is in charge. If you want more details let me know.

Sorry, I said I would report after this weekend but I had too much lawn crap to do. I havn't heard anything either. I'll be there fri and sat. Antone have any info at all?

They are required by sept. of 2008 for all captains. About 125.00 bucks for 5 years. :evil: The only thing keeping me in this state is family and this lake. All of us just have to keep bending over and grabbing our socks!

Thanks bro! Let me know cause I called buffalo and I'm getting a call back by monday.

Thanks Rick. I had more knots in my stomach than a leadcore/dipsey tangle!

I'm going this weekend. I'll report after.

You are fine w/ the 10'6" rods. thats all we use for dipseys. You'll be suprised when your fishing that they don't seem as long than when your on land.

Hopefully tues. at 2:30pm unless I need to take a part over. God I hope not!

I tried a couple guys for ya but it was too much boat for them.

I don't know the exact # of hours but yes you will need to vary speeds. Also it's pretty boring unless you can troll at 15mph.
