We only had a couple of flocks of merg's go by kevin..non of them committed to the dekes so all was good. Noticed you said some good #'s of broad bills around...are you seeing them in the st Lawrence or out in the main lake? Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Had a chance to get out with some buddies while in between our gun season & blackpowder season. Last week with the cold weather we had a really good push of greenheads & divers move down. My buddy hunted on Sunday in 15mph winds & shot a two man limit of mallards & whistlers. He said the could have done double...just tons of them around. Well wed wasn't quite as good...weather was almost too nice. Clear star lit morning with out a wisp of wind....about 28 degrees:-( we set the mix of dabblers & a long line of divers & waited to see what transpired. Well 10 min after legal light we had a couple pairs of red legs buzz us but no dice. To our surprise the first bird to lock in with landing gear down is none other then a shoveler! My turn to shot & get my first of this species!! As the morning moved on the dabblers slowed & the divers picked up. Not tons of them around but a steady pick of Goldeneyes & Buffies. We ended up with 9 divers & the shoveler....& of course the Honker season is closed & we had two pairs dump into the dekes & get a free pass.....go figure! Over all a beautiful morning. Hopefully a couple more hunts in before the end in a few weeks! Got some sea ducking to get in as well.... standby!! Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Here he is! & yes he was taken with a Ten point cross bow which is legal FOR ALL on Ohio! Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Great story... even better outcome! We had a similar one in Ohio 3 yes ago. I was videoing a hunt for my brother, at 6:45 we had a 22" wide 8 point walk under our tree at 6yds( a buck we saw dogging a doe the day before) we were in a narrow hedge row seperating a cut bean field & alfalfa. The buck stopped two steps from the cut beans & my bro let fly! A complete pass through.. we could see the bloody shaft from the tree. The buck took 5 bounds & stopped 70 yds out ....we tensed as we expected him to tip over. 45 agonizing min later ( all on film) we watch him walk off into a brushy grown up pasture. As we get down & inspect the arrow we find flecks of liver... not so good. Being morning we walk out & wait till 2:00 pm to take up the trail. Very..very little blood???.... hhhmmm. We tracked him for approx 15 min ..& to our amazement we bust him out of his bed, we watch him make the slow.. stumbling run 300yds back across the bean field towards a 50 acre uncut corn field ( can you feel the heart sink here) We do the obvious... back out & wait till morning. I don't know who slept less..me or my bro. We wake to a frosty morning , & meet one of my buddies from out there to pick up the track. We marked a large hickory on the field edge where we last saw him...be gain there. We find a couple specks of blood & take up the trail( mind you there was less then half a cup in his bed the day before) My buddy steps a few yards ahead and says he can see a small pond on the edge of the uncut corn....I tell him " head for it!" Well....low & be hold there he lay..only his nose & one beam in the mud. Upon dressing him the body cavity is still warm! This buck lived till the wee hours of the morning! Glad we didn't push him. So the answer to every bodies question... where was the shot? It entered high just nicking the liver, punched through the diaphragm & exited just nicking the lower right lung. A very steep shot....that 2" forward would have doubled him. As said....they have an INCREDIBLE will to survive...& thankfully one that the yotes didn't get to first this time!!"

The Elite 7 is coming off her this week, getting winterized & going to storage. The first $13,000 takes it! The "New" Baha will be in the door yard wednesday!

here is a few pics folks. A very solid & rugged boat..will not include the motor.

I have a buddy who has a 21ft Duckwater up for sale. This boat is under 5yrs old, had a 225 hp outboard on it but the engine cooked this summer. He willing to sell the boat & trailer as he wants to down size this fall. Any body that knows Duckwaters know they all custom aluminum construction. This is a center console with a tandem axle aluminum trailer. Great boat for the avid waterfowler, but also make a great walleye boat or Niagara river boat. He is asking $14,000 for the boat & trailer. will post pics as soon as I get them....drop me a pm with any interest

Had a bunch of cohos around this morning that were keeping us busy but never really hitting very hard. The usual run in tight early on was dry for us with miss fires. Slid out to 130 for a couple hours ..picked up our first two kings...along with a couple of good rips on dipsie that came unbuttoned 500 ft from the boat. Slid out to 170 for the afternoon & found a pod of active fish..picked up a steelie on a sliding Cheater...down 50 over 100. Then did 4 more kings...two on dipsies & two on riggers off UV sea sickwaddler down 95. Over all ended up 8 for 20.. beautiful day on the water.

Put the lures right in their face Spike! This time of year...don't worry about temp....if they are hugging bottom....put it right in front of them!! Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Lake Ontario United mobile app

A good mix of staging fish & fresh fish every day. Temp has been 80-90 down...but put the lures where the marks are. We went 5 for 8 this morning with 4 kings & a ironhead. Dipsies out 260-300 took 4 rips. Riggers down 90-102 took 3 hits & 400 cp took 1 ....unfortunately we dropped this one 50ft from the boat. As usual first & evening from 5-7 have been best. Morning trip got blown off yesterday, went 10- 14 on Thursday with a mix of kings, Lakers & browns. Here is today's catch & Thursday's..... on the water every day...only so much time to Post!
