  1. That's awesome. A trophy if I've ever seen one right there nice job dad. And of course the little guy gets extra points for still wanting to keep hunting after he hurled.
  2. I wonder if thats the same guy that posted he was crushing the halibut and grouper in irondequoit bay. I spent a lot of time chasing down that hot tip....
  3. Love the Voodoo Ranger icing up next to the brownies. Nice haul!
  4. Man those rainbows are nice lookin. Keep it going!
  5. Thats the irony of all this, a salty guy complaining about how too many people promote fishing online yet here he is visiting a site that does exactly that. Gotta admire the guy's passion but man if a hobby makes you that frustrated then its not worth it dude. Life is here to be enjoyed, you'll be dead soon I suggest you appreciate it a little more and look to the positives.
  6. First time I saw this post just now, what a fun read! Kinda got suspenseful in the end then the Big Buck Down post and the photo WooHoo! Awesome experience and congrats for toughing out that arctic blast. Thanks for sharing. Impressive how thick those Iowa bodies are this late into the season, WNY bucks are pretty thinned out post rut.
  7. next time u buy copper just keep the empty spool and weigh it. Next time you buy a roll just cut off say a 10 ft piece, weigh it, multiply it by 60 and add in the weight of the spool. If its close you're good to go. Kitchen scales are like 10 bucks at walmart. Plus you can use it for mariju-- i mean uh cooking recipes too.
  8. Went out for a few hrs around 5pm, 2/3 footers from WNW but still fishable in the Grady. Went out to 90 ft straight out from the river, found 45-50 degree water around 50ft down, got a few little dudes on the riggers and one nice mature king on the dipsy set at 145. NBK spoon. Love how the wire line makes the rod pop with those head shakes from the big ones. Nice evening out there, sailboats were loving it, didnt see anyone else fishing. One interesting note, there's a 150 private yacht tied up at the RYC right now, belongs to Walgreens founder's wife, a Rochesterian. Quite a sight. The tender was bigger than our boat.
  9. Not surprised that the Canadians would have an imcomplete or ambiguous regulation rule guide. I swear that country is just getting dumber and more backward by the day. Major ports with no docking or fuel, a ridiculously inept customs check in system (if you've tried the ArriveCan process you know what I mean), overly aggressive marine patrol boats, maintaining outdated Covid restrictions etc.-- its sad to see such a beautiful country declining so rapidly, they just can't get their act together up there. Tourism is down 86%, and what was supposed to be a summer of recovery is now another missed opportunity for Canada. So I guess that's the long answer for why I'm not surprised there is no minimum size for pike listed. Nobody seems to have a freaking clue about anything up there.
  10. Not sure about Kings but I caught a laker near Chippewa Bay once and I just talked to a guy that caught a 36 inch brown a few weeks ago under the bridge near Ogdensburg.
  11. nice pike! i've been up here for the bass opener, excellent fishing so far, just targeting smallies. minnows working best for us. we are near chippewa bay.
  12. Good for you EJT, wish there were more sportsman like you out there, its frustrating watching these bass boat clowns hammer these spawning hens with no regard for the consequences. I think part of it is lack of knowledge, and the other part is simply indifference. Either way, the DEC needs to stand up to this, move back the bass opener (they actually made it earlier this year if you can believe that) and start posting officers at boat launches to lay out the rules and ethics that we all need to live by to sustain our fisheries. I believe the governor should get involved and make a law that ALL bass tourneys are catch and release as well. Some do it already, make it the standard. We already know the technology has far surpassed anyone's idea of fair chase, at least allow the breeding fish to remain in their habitat.
  13. That was the case before (vax required) but not any more. A rare example of logic demonstrated by the Canadian government, who has been slowly allowing their country to become vastly overregulated and is struggling with massive cost of living increases.
  14. Yeah whatever happened last year with the vanishing brown trout seems to be behind us. Lots of em around and some good size too.
  15. Nice job, thanks for the report. The smallie probably outfought em all...
