    Plecos4sale......judging from the fact that your hand holding the bass is TWICE the size of your left hand, I'd say that fish is about 3-3.5 lbs and Picker Pines's about maybe 5lbs or so. Both nice though.... :yes:   Picker Pines.....Is that your biggest bass through ice?  :wondering:

    "I took her to Doug's Fish Fry in Skaneatles today after we bought our new to us rv 5th wheel! Last nights eyes will be for Cody and I!" ......Boy I haven't been to either there or the one in Cortland in a while. Great stuff. I read in a review recently the one in Cortland had gone downhill somewhat compared to the Skaneatles store. When on the road and hungry for fish, they are hard to beat!....BTW, nice wintertime river 'eyes! :yes:   ....Oh, and Sluggo....whatever the surgery is for, relax and take it light, trust the docs, your own self and the guy upstairs and you will be in the best frame of mind to recover successfully! You are your own best advocate..... ;)

    YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT A BROWN IS A DIFFERENT FISH THEN A LAKER OR RAINBOW THEY ARE A EDGE FISH MEANING THAT THEY LIVE ALONG THE EDGE OF DROP OFF SO IF YOU WANT THEM THAT IS WERE TO FISH  I HAVE FISHED THESE FINGER LAKES FOR 35 YEARS & THAT IS WHERE THEY ARE CAUGHT

    Trouthunter.......You are so right about the browns along the drop offs into deeper water in the fingers. That has been my experience as well in Seneca, Canandaigua, and Kueka......Seems like surprisingly good ones have been caught trolling along marked drops from around 30 to 55 feet down when that drop is going from a shelf flat of water (like north of Kashong on seneca or north of woodville at south end of canandaigua) into the depths (100ft or more), right along the angled slope edge of the drop.....And yes, nothing beats good accurate and regular data from as many points (fishermen over time) as possible, to figure out how to best do stuff, including getting the funds to do whatever.

    How about just chalking it up to a "misunderstanding" and moving on....starting to sound like a reality show.... :)

    .......Ah, must be a long winter to b fussing and building edges  :bandit:  over such an innocent and clear query........let's go fishing!!  :ninja:

    bondouley......NNniiiiiiice!!. In getting that new St. Croix, perhaps U were not anticipating the big ones going for your offerings.... :thinking: ? Seriously, the real power that still-fished larger lakers, either wet or hard water, show when jigging can be a real eye opener for those who usually troll them in. Even one of the big guys seems more like working in an old boot compared to a similarly sized salmonid of almost any other type.....I wonder what was the size of that big one that got away. Nice report and pic :yes: !

    Hey Kevin......your absolutely right.....I knew that! :thinking: Yes the burbot is a cod family member. And bowfin look a lot like snakeheads. And I have yet to catch any one of those three.... or a mudpuppy......something to look forward to. BTW, I've heard (from Zimmern's Bizarre Foods) the dreaded snakeheads are great eating, as opposed to their native look a likes, bowfins. As I love eating cod, pollack, and most of all haddock, I'd love to try those burbot.....choo-choo.....glad U kept a hold of that over-striped perch....it is really neat!  :happy2:
