  1. With fewer birds being spotted this year I was happy to take this bird yesterday. 8” beard but 1” spurs.
  2. Early yesterday I harvested a turkey and this morning we caught a nice limit of browns. largest was 9.7.
  3. You were in a good walleye area but it’s a tough region to fish with change in depth and current.
  4. Had a quick trip tonight on the river. We had our limit by 8:30. To

  5. With knee replacement this summer I didn’t fish nearly as much as usual but did get out with the full moon and was happy to see the fish are still catchable.
  6. Finally made a solo trip after knee replacement. Had to do some searching but finally got my limit before the rain.
  7. Fished a few more times with other boys and caught enough for a good fish fry and then went to catch and release.
  8. I took my grandsons to a dock fishing last night and to Butterfield in my boat this morning. We had some success and smiling faces.
  9. Interesting that the river walleye population seems to be doing well. From what I see the river fish feed mostly on gobies rather than alewives. I wonder if this has anything to do with the difference. I find few alewives but many gobies in river walleyes stomachs.
  10. The meeting was pretty chaotic. Acoustics were awful and people were pretty rude in over talking the presenters. It appeared most wanted a walleye stocking program which DEC said isn’t a viable option and would not be effective over the large area. DEC is looking at spawning habitat enhancement and perhaps a change in limits. About the only consensus is that the walleye numbers in the eastern basin is down.
  11. I’m planning on attending
  12. I don’t have side imaging. Down imaging shows the bait well. Fish the flat edges along Channel markers in 30-45 fow. If you see bait work that area. I mostly troll against the current using heavy bottom bouncers and stick baits. I’m currently recovering from knee replacement so they get a break from me for a few weeks.
  13. Surgery went well but not easy to get comfortable to be try to sleep.
  14. Last outing before knee surgery.
  15. Got Mr Walleye out on the river for his limit.
  16. Went out with a friend last night and went 6 for 8. If you found bait you found fish. Caught them in 4 different locations all around 30-40 fow.

    Crappies

    Hit a small local lake fishing from shore. Caught 9 crappies, 5 bluegills, 4 rock bass, and a pike using bobber and jig. Also caught a bass on a small bead head nymph on a fly rod.
  18. Probably through the week. My son and I just made some I had frozen into a white sausage. It came out very good.
  19. Running 6-7 ‘ leaders a foot above bottom bouncers I seldom have issues with shallow stickbaits running deeper than bottom bouncers
  20. I feel fortunate that my wife enjoys spending time with me in the outdoors. She is pretty much a fair weather hunter and fisherwoman but loves to see the world come alive and turn on Marlin to identify bird calls. She also happily enjoys eating the fish and game we harvest and we have a large garden. Nice that she can relate to my passion!
  21. Lots of time to fish and I have lots of perch in the freezer already. Feel fortunate that my wife enjoys being in the blind with me.
  22. My wife and I hunted a popup blind this morning. 2 Tom’s and 3 hens appeared out 300 yards. Came our way to about 175 yards. while watching them 2 hens came by at 5 yards followed by a nice tom. 9” beard.
  23. I ‘m missing out on some brown fishing but got to spend some time with my Son in Law in Costa Rica. And got a rooster fish.
  24. Fishing 1/2 day at Manuel Antonio and staying 3 days. Also spending 2 days in jungle and two days near volcano. Family vacation of 6 adults with 2 grandsons.
