    Temp/Bait in/around Big Salmon??

    in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)

    Posted

    the way it sounds there are fish in the estuary. any reason why you guys don't anchor up and fish that? i love trolling in the lake, but if the fish are being more cooperative in the estuary i wouldn't hesitate to try it. does it get pretty full of boats in there?

    Yes it does! Make sure you use the right hook on your lure. I have seen the guy next to you watch you and then all of a sudden you have a fine. I even saw them take a guys boat at the ramp back in the 80's.

    We will be there Saturday AM before hitting the lake. Plenty of fish in the lake to still be had.

    To Those of Us Born 1925 – 1970

    TO

    ALL THE KIDS WHO SURVIVED THE 1930s, 40s, 50s, 60s and 70s!

    First, we survived being born to mothers who may have smoked and/or drank while they were pregnant.

    They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can, and

    didn't get tested for diabetes.

    Then, after that trauma, we were* *put to sleep on our tummies in baby cribs covered with bright colored lead-based paints.

    We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, locks on doors or cabinets, and when we rode our bikes,* *we had baseball caps,not helmets, on our heads.*

    As infants and children, we would ride in cars with no car seats, no booster seats, no seat belts, no air bags, bald tires and sometimes no brakes.

    Riding in the back of a pick- up truck on a warm day was always a special treat.

    We drank water from the garden hose and not from a bottle.

    We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle, and no one

    actually died from this.

    We ate cupcakes, white bread, real butter, and bacon. We drank Kool-Aid

    made with real white sugar. And we weren't overweight.

    WHY?

    Because we were always outside playing that's why!

    We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were

    back when the streetlights came on.

    No one was able to reach us all day.

    And, we were OKAY.*

    We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then ride them down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes.. After running into the bushes a few times, we learned to solve the problem.

    We did not have Play Stations, Nintendos and X-boxes. There were no video games, no 150 channels on cable, no video movies or DVDs, no surround-sound or CDs,* *no cell phones, no personal computers,* *no Internet and no chat rooms.

    WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them!

    We fell out of trees, got cut,* *broke bones and teeth, and there were no lawsuits from those accidents.

    We would get spankings with wooden spoons, switches, ping-pong paddles, or just a bare hand, and no one would call child services to report abuse.

    We ate worms, and mud pies* *made from dirt, and the worms did not

    live in us forever.

    We were given BB guns for our 10th birthdays, made up games with sticks and tennis balls, and -although we were told it would happen- we did not put out

    very many eyes.

    We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just walked in and talked to them.*

    Little League had tryouts* * and not everyone made the team.* *Those who didn't had to learn* *to deal with disappointment.

    Imagine that!!

    The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of.

    They actually sided with the law! *

    These generations have produced some of the best** **risk-takers,* *

    Problem solvers, and inventors ever.

    The past 50 to 85 years have seen an explosion of innovation and new

    ideas.

    We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned how to deal with it all.*

    if YOU are one of those born* *between

    1925-1970, CONGRATULATIONS!

    Kind of makes you want to run through the house with scissors, doesn't it?
