That’s a triple drop tined deer! Wow.

Bill, I noticed you have the big eight point gene on your properties.

I am too busy working on my tan.

Anyone try the new Traditions Nitrostick muzzleloader?

The stocking cuts last year after a second mild winter in a row was short sighted.

On a Brad’s artificial ta boot! Nice fish.

I used to always have a hammer fly/ green dot white board out for kings but once the lake cleared a little after the hard ‘14-‘15 winters, that combo died for me on the west end. I have those combos sitting in bags waiting to go back in the water when conditions warrant. This warm summer and another mild winter and I will be getting them wet again. White halo with glow beads is always a great idea in low light.

Good stuff.

Never mind then. Use a red and white daredevil 😁

the green dot flasher and hammer fly combo is working again? That old go-to has been gathering cobwebs. Glad it’s back! The black edge/glow slick SD with an A-Tom-mik hypnotist combo has been working as has meat rigs fished off smaller 8” protrolls.

Since the fish appear fat, is the issue more spawning at age 2 and less spawning at age 4?

👍 yep.

Interesting that Olcott and not Pulaski has had the winning fall fish in the LOC derby three years in a row. Perhaps this represents a shift in the lake of some sort? Is it a bait and fitness thing? Is it a pen-rearing effect? Is it water temps and weather at the time of the LOC? I can report that the fish I have been catching in Niagara County have been fat fat fat (three times for affect). Is it as simple as the port name “all-caught”? For those of you that fish the Salmon River, please report out on how the run is going this year.
