  1. Crazy how the two lakes can be so different. Erie is rocking right now with only light south winds in olcott. Guess I should have made the trip north. Thought it was supposed to be a little breezy out of the west.
  2. MCF how deep did you fish? Heard fish moved deeper and closer to Canadian line as of early in the week.
  3. While I would disagree the buffalo end is dead, easier fishing is west. Not sure if you made it out today with the lake rocking pretty good.
  4. 1. Absolutely. Staple for me on Lake Erie. I troll harnesses 95% of the time. 2. You can fish off all the above. I love bottom bouncing with my electric but also fish off lead core, dipseys, jets, and riggers. 3. I use boards when fishing suspended eyes in open water. 4. Colorado, Indiana, willows, and hatchet. Every dog has his day. Mix of different sizes and colors depending on conditions. Colorado are better at slower speeds and willows when you turn it up a notch. Sometimes small blades, sometimes bigger blades with more thump. Colorado typically .9-1.5. Willows for 1.6 to 2.2 or so. Not sure what body of water your on. This is just what works on Erie for me.
  5. Interested if it's not already spoken for
  6. Still searching if anybody has any laying around.
  7. Checking to see is anyone has any in good shape that they're looking to get rid of. Let me know, thanks.

  9. Steve, I sent you a PM.
  10. Hey guys, I know this isn't a fishing report but looking to see if anyone has any info. My family would like to rent a cottage for a few days, not an entire week, in the finger lakes region. We're coming from Buffalo. I mostly only see weekly rentals available. I was wondering if anybody knew of any places to stay for 2-3 nights. Waterfront preferred and a place for a 2 year old to run around with his dump trucks. Thinking of Wednesday to Friday/Saturday anytime late July through August. Thanks.
  11. Let me know if deal falls through. Thanks.
  12. Fish grips! Best money I ever spent for handling walleye!
  13. Yep...buddies were scouting eyes in Canadian waters Sunday and marked lots of perch with nobody fishing them.
  14. Ask the local tackle shop whats been productive, I run mostly SS and regs. I am far from an expert tho. Good quality and great customer service.
  15. http://www.niagarathisweek.com/news-story/5662871-police-coast-guard-search-lake-ontario-for-missing-boater/ Another sad story. I know this was posted on the north shore thread. If you fish solo fellas, like I often do, where your life vest. I know it doesn't guarantee survival but it sure as hell would increase your odds and at least let authorities locate you much easier.
  16. Gill-T, there was a great day bite off Buffalo a couple weeks ago but since the wicked Northeast blow a week ago fishing has been slow. Pick a few here and there but nothing crazy. It's still early in the year for the day bite to really take off, things should improve once the lake gets into the low 60's. That being said my father and I were talking while out on the lake fishing Sunday about the lack of emeralds around this spring. Very unusual year. SBH and EBM were loaded for a couple days back in May but other than that the upper and harbor has been pretty void of bait.
  17. Moor recommends running your rigger with cable straight off the back of the boat. It is much easier for me to reach the release when run off the side of the boat. Has anybody experienced the cable chaffing or being damaged when run perpendicular to the stern?
  18. What he said. Gets the blood flowing for sure.
  19. Just this spring I caught a 15 lb king on a free slider and a 10 lb laker off the rigger spoon simultaneously. Pretty crazy. I always run an 8mm bead above the swivel. Just preference I guess.
  20. PM sent on probe
  21. Sounds awesome. How was the lake today? Stayed home with how wicked it was blowing last night.
  22. I'm no expert but I've never used snubbers. One more connection for something to go wrong. Just have your drag set right and you'll be fine.
  23. Thanks for the input fellas. Such a great resource.
