  1. I wonder since king stocking has all but stopped on Lake Superior and Lake Huron, kings in Lake Michigan have bait to chase in three lakes if they want to go roaming. Lake Ontario kings are stuck.
  2. Dock fishing for largemouth and awesome carp fishing= port bay.
  3. Then there is this. https://www.wivb.com/news/investigates/forever-chemicals-buffalo-sewer-urged-to-stop-treating-landfill-wastewater/amp/ these legacy chemicals that have been shown to effect hormonal activity could be to blame for two year old kings reach maturity at a younger age. We are at the end of the waste stream. Michigan water is cleaner.
  4. Evolving kings No emeralds to jump start shakers Artificial selection at Altmar Bigs in rivers more likely to get snagged Better fishing fleet Internet fishing reports Less older class alewives Spin Doctors and UV spoon tape
  5. Ok, it was me. I did it. I was the red boat.
  6. Beauty!
  7. No worries, he only lost a couple of Gary D rigs and we all know those don’t catch fish.
  8. What was the state of health of the king? By the look of things, that flasher was dragging bottom for awhile. He probably got into your spread to take a look and got the rig snagged. Better to be lucky than good.
  9. Head deep past 400’
  10. These cases can be avoided sometimes by usage of an air horn. It is loud and gets their attention.
  11. Yes, Dr Weidel’s alewife assessment for the year is now complete.
  12. We had a really good bite offshore today. Kings,cohos and steelhead.
  13. The down current was pushing out last weekend. That is why it was cold in there. New day tomorrow
  14. You failed to make Detective. It’s in the thread title. The green can is off the Niagara near the mouth.
  15. The girth was also 33”
  16. X2. Debris fields are visual “tells” that indicate an area of current wadded up a bunch of stuff and shoved it up against the bank. Bait and plankton gets pushed by those same currents. As stated, if debris is too thick, fish the edges. If just feathers and driftwood, go through it. Usually fish are up high and feeding in those areas
  17. The Protroll site has had blinkers for sale.
  18. Yesterday I tried Off deep woods spray on my legs and spread some catmint around the boat that I had growing in my yard. Flies were much less than the day before and the Off worked well enough. I think I was bit twice all morning. The catmint made an absolute mess of the boat.
  19. Easy to make yourself
  20. The baitfish population thanks you.
  21. Usually nicks are from wire. Perhaps you had your rig get tangled with another? The other possibility is the fish swam forward after hitting your rig, got the line tangled in the main line ahead of the flasher or the other wire rig before tripping the release. I caught a steelhead on Erie Sunday that showed itself by jumping behind the boat. The problem was it swam ahead and stayed ahead. We knew we had a fish on but no way of telling which rod. Three minutes later the outside board moves back.
  22. I agree with Vince, you need to examine some stomach contents yourself. Let me know when you are ready.
  23. Haha 😂
