  1. I don’t think it is a money issue. There was a sight proposal with funding in place for a hatchery in Niagara county and it was rejected.
  2. Distrust comes from experiences. We were sold on the idea of increasing water levels on Lake Ontario so more fluffy baby ducks and pike could be born in the flooded cottage yards dotting the bays on the South Shore when in reality it was just a way for the shipping industry to make more money. Hopefully the DEC can show via actual numbers that there is a return on the changes. Generally speaking, what is good for the fish is typically good for the fishermen. There is a fine balance between making the put-and-take fishermen and the C&R fishermen happy. My hope is they study the results of the changes and don't make the regulations permanent until they can prove via numbers that there is a positive effect.
  3. Very cool buck and well placed shot!
  4. They both love camera time.
  5. You work? Seemingly everyday there is a new post with you on a sit lol. First day for me will be Saturday. The next two weeks they are suckers for rattling.
  6. That fish hasn’t been up the creek long enough to probably be impacted by the contamination
  7. Stripers and false albacore off jetties from NJ to NC
  8. Wow !! 600 fish is a ton. Congrats! Zach, you still haven’t answered my PM. Any interest in producing some yellow cedar “Lyman” plugs for us salmon guys?
  9. A good old deer snort works for me but I may have to expand my vocalizations after seeing that. It would appear they are attracted to curly’s voice.
  10. Must be the size of the worm.
  11. Since LL’s spawn in September mostly, I would assume most of the larger fish would be up a creek somewhere?? Is anyone getting bigs right now?
  12. If you get bored while on a sit, you could just turn it around for some “selfie time”.
  13. Why not a UV-glow two-face deer blind ?
  14. If a deer sat at the base of a tree and ate every last apple, they would explode with gas! Apples are a “desert”. Deer need a good mix of greens,browse, protein from nuts and lastly fruit. They will eat two or three apples and keep moving. Great kill spots as they make noise crunching them that blocks the sound of you drawing your bow.

    Altmar

    I could sit and watch them all day.
  16. That has been a destination hunt I have always wanted to try. Do you hire a farmer to take you back w/horses?
  17. Wow!!!!!!!
  18. Yes. I believe Canadians were concerned about some runs of steelhead that developed off tribs to the St. Lawrence that they considered discontinuing stocking on the East end of the lake.
  19. Take time to go thru these videos. Much of the hard work on maintaining a quality fishery in Canada falls to fishing clubs. https://www.lakehuronfishingclub.com/
  20. I was a hired gun for Vince lol. Had a blast. In reference to -does the signature of a shark ball matter..,,,I believe the great Vince Pierleoni once said at a LOTSA lecture “everything matters” as it pertains to what we put in the water.
  21. This is how we extract fishing secrets out of you Pete! Got ya!
  22. I will call BS on attraction of facets. Go to John King’s website michiganangler.com and scroll thru some of his underwater videos. He has a few with underwater audio on capturing how obnoxiously loud cable hum is under the water. I can’t believe fish can “hear” or detect anything with that hum going on. I spend a lot of effort making my gear quieter and more stealthy. I do own a non-faceted shark and catch fish off it. Don’t buy into gimmicks or snake-oil salesmen......that is how we ended up with Trump.
  23. good for that kid! At 18 I would have shot the deer in the brow tine because that is were I would have been looking!
