Nice gators Longspurs. 

Hey Longspurs, I am headed to LG on the first of there is ice left. Any tips for a newbie? I have never fished that lake before.

Heading to Oneida tomorrow. Any advice? 

You have to have a machine and get out to the shoals. Have fished the edges and not a lot of luck. Some perch but nothing crazy.

Congrats Longspurs! Nice northerns. There is definitely a lack of respect out there. I can't tell you how many times I have gone out of my way to go well around someone fishing to be courteous and then set up and have others drive right next to my shanty through my set. Unbelievable. 

I have a friend that might be looking for one, I have passed this on to him. Thanks.

Is this still for sale?

If you want a ton of small perch (not keepers, great action for kids) and not a long walk, try the south end of Silver lake. Plenty of ice on west side 8+ inches. get out to the deeper water toward the middle. I was also on Sodus Saturday and had similar experience bringing home a couple dozen keepers after weeding through 4-6 shorts for every one. Definitely got colder in the afternoon when the wind picked up. 30+ FOW. Anything with meat on it worked fine.

Fished Ibay on Tuesday the 16th afternoon and the bite was slow but steady. A LOT OF DINKS to wade through. Took home a couple dozen keepers 9-11".  Pleasant afternoon away from work. Life is too short to only fish on weekends!

I went to Lake Erie twice this year in my 14' Bluefin and was successful both times. Last week we caught a few out of Cattaraugus Creek 65 FOW.

Thanks for the Salute. As a fellow Vet it is MY honor to serve. Having 24 yrs under my belt so far I am thankful for the continued good health to be able to continue to serve this GREAT nation of ours. I follow in the footsteps of those who went before me, who I honor with my service. I dare not speak for other Vets but I know that I am greatful for the many heartful notes of thanks and verbal thank-yous that I receive from those who know me. May the Lord bless you all my fellow members of the LOU!!
