you bosco but my dog and kids think i should be up and at em by 7am most days and since im up at 5 am every work day trin to pull a 23 hr day is gettin tougher!!although friday i may try to hit owasco at dusk and fish till i cant my eyes open anymore[midnite if im lucky]

mosquito point is in port byron.as for cross lake i spent over 100hrs the previous 2 yrs trin to figure out the eyes,no luck.ive caught the eyes in the state ditch from may till the end of june then ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.i know that the nite bite happens at mays point and mosquito point,im just to boneheaded to not stop trin durin the day.as for tigers ive never caught any monsters out of cross lake but the people i used to work with at bps swear the north end is where its at.i caught 1 last year @cross lake marine that was over 30in and that was it!!with gas prices the way they are im not goin all over the state anymore,fish close to home and figure the local fishery out.mabey if we get a few more members sharin info we could help each other out.offers??hints???and so long 4 now;john

tried trollin and jiggin for some eyes around mosquito point,landed 1 small northern and nothing else,marked quite a few fish but they were not interested,anybody else try ??

tell me more!!i really cant commit ive got a daughter goin to college ,so everythin revolves around her!!BUT if i am free ill shall be there.!!just need some info,what launch ?who gets the scratch ?and what pup after the tourney is over?;and so long 4 now;john

go to fish hawk.net,[a canadian fish page]http://www.fish-hawk.net/Map_project/maps/Big%20Gull-FH.gif]look for maps ,then big gull lake.g5-g6.on the map is where you can find big island and great walleye water,f5 is where you will find the clorex bottles ,great multi species area.catch the eyes with worms on the bottom,either black jigs or bottom bouncers with dixies.for pike fish the deep weed lines with your fav, pike lure,and green slimey bass will hit anything that moves!!hope it helps and so long 4 now;john

try in north of big island or on the southside of big island in 32 fow.also there is a sunken island mid lake with 2 clorex bottles markin the spot very shallow but on the east side it drops fast and the eyes should be there.west of the bottles it drops more slowly perfect for green slimey bass,for pike try the coves and bays south of big island.hope this helps .also beware not all sunken islands are marked be careful!!and so long 4 now;john

nice rainbow!!

why would you stop @gander for bait??it is a big box store.of course their customer service sucks they make 7.50hr.dont get me wrong i like gander and bps but not for bait .go to mickeys or spankys or thousand island bait shop or handys or the joint in b-ville if you need bait.the big box store are there to catch fisherman not fish,and so long 4 now;john

i have fair amount of luck@nite too but they've got to feed durin the day too!!i cant get it through my thick head that these eyes wont bite durin the day!!

ive got a sayin;some days your the dog,others the hydrant.this weekend i was the hydrant,in 2 weeks ill be the dog!!cant fish 4th july weekend ,daughter graduation extravaganza!!if any of you guys want to meet up on the water let me know,is it worth the time and $$$ to buy a marine radio???how much info do you guys share on the water with people you may know??and so long 4 now;john

where are you fishin::fow??

on the water jiggin by 5:45 out in 30 fow @shack shoals,caught 1 eye spent the next 7 hours trin to find the rest of his family and failed miserably,caught 1 sheeps head and had 1 more bite,tried from 12 to 40 fow,where did the land shark find the fish???i was in my buddy's mirror craft today,it was a strange day on the lake too.first nice drift then no wind,still better than work,and so long4 now;john

fished fron 6am till noon,1 lake trout no eyes markin lots of bait in 40-50 fow ,no takers moved in between 30 -40 fow more bait clouds but still no eyes,fished from the pump house down to dutch hollow,gettin a little discouragin but still better than work!!and so long 4 now;john

i was there the week after memorial day and the fishin was terrible.looks like most of the pixs were in the 3 bay area??the pix of your son with the islands in the east is where my fishing partners caught most of there fish.the pixs of your partner is where i crushed them 2 yrs ago with blade baits!!where the bugs out yet??we had none when we visited,and so long 4 now;john

pending on the weather it may be friday nite if i get to fish this weekend.ill let you know

lookin for more eyes caught more lakers.3 trollin and 1 hit a bucktail jig in 32fow.also caught 2 nice perch on a dixie spinner,can someone tell me why the lake trout smell so bad?????is it their diet??when i catch eyes @nite they dont have the odor of a laker,so i tend to believe its not what they are eatin,walleyes and lakers are feedin on the same forage base??

launch @fremacs head due north stop in 32fow troll east till your half way between larkin and wilson points,just before you get to larkin point there is a 42fow.troll that hole!!i normally have my best luck with dixie spinner on a botton bouncer.and so long 4 now;john

tried this mornin to find some eyes trollin in 27-37 fow.no luck but did calch 6lakers and 1 perch,saw lots of bait on my lawrance but either the lakers where more aggressive or the eyes were not interested.does anyone want to give the secret out on how to catch eyes in the daytime on owasco???i can consistantly limit out on oneida,i try the same techniques on owasco and nothin.trollin,jiggin,3way with a dixie,nothin seems to work.i can catch them at night but not durin the day,what gives.with fuel approachin 4.25$ a ride out to oneida is gettin a little expensive [50$]

ive been in sickbay this weekend so no fish for me,but in 9 short days ill be in canada fishin for eyes!!annual trip to big gull lake,no trophy's but there are eaters to be caught ,cleaned,and consumed!!feelin better all ready;and so long 4 now;john
