We fished Black River Bay this morning. About a dozen boats working 25-55 fow. Never saw a walleye caught but we caught 3 pike and had another good rip off the board. No hits on riggers everything off the boards. Lead cores were best today. Kept a couple for chowder. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I feel your pain but think of all the sunrises you’ve seen, birds you’ve heard, animals you’ve seen, flowers and plants you’ve observed. You have been able experienced spring slowly unfold before your very eyes. You’re blessed!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I think both goose and turkey thighs are very good. More fat= less dry and good flavor. Duck legs are also very good. I think most people have never tried them, cooked them wrong, or are to lazy to clean them. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Meat Eater is already on and pretty good show. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

After cleaning a turkey and removing the beast and thigh meat I boiled up all the bones from the carcass, neck, heart, gizzard and drum sticks. After picking the meat off the bones I had enough to make a turkey soup, turkey salad, and this turkey and biscuits. Likely 5 or 6 meals from things many hunters throw away. I still have the breasts and will use thigh meat to make sausage! . Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Caught 5 yesterday. Still fishing weedy bay 5-6 fow down 3.5-4.5 feet over weeds. They haven’t moved in to spawn yet. Water is 53.5 degrees. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I’ve had some good days on BRB and Chaumont trolling stick baits, deep divers, or spoons. Usually run boards with lead cores or mono with split shot and also riggers. In BRB I fished 20-50 fow and down 5- 30 feet. Chaumont I run shallower as water tends to run 15-30 feet deep. Generally big walleyes and some big pike, and even some pickerel. Never caught any browns there though. Out of Stony I’ve caught browns, lakers, walleyes and pike. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I’m generally hitting the browns and walleyes this time of year but have stayed close to home and hunted turkeys and fished perch and crappies. I haven’t heard much on fishing out of Stony Creek, Henderson, Sackets ( Black River Bay), or Chaumont. Does anyone have anything to report. With the cold and wind it’s likely few have been fishing.

May be more stuff under older dock and weed/algae growth which would provide better structure and food. Seems like certain ones are productive year after year. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Generally the spring bite starts now and lasts a few weeks. I tend to to fish warm bays over weed tops early in 5-8 fow now. As they begin to spawn fish shallow structure ( downed trees, beaver feeds, boat docks, or rocks) Mostly use jig with minnow, tube or 2” Berkley power-bait . I usually fish a light jig 2-5’ below a bobber, depending on water depth. Try changing your bobber depth as often they want a specific depth. It’s important to move frequently if you’re not catching! If they are around they will generally bite. If you catch one there will likely to be more around as they school up. Also note where you catch them and look for water with similar conditions. If you hit them on a certain spot and they quit leave the area and return to it later. Avoid boat noise as they can be spooky. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

All part of the game.I’m happy to be out enjoying nature!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Great hunt. I had 5 come marching in to 130 yards and either made me or didn’t like the strutter. Hunting with snow on the ground! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Great story Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Oh no! What a disappointment but you got to observe a great show. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Temp was 52.5 but wind was blowing today. Couldn’t find any. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Well with the perch bite subsiding thought it was time to try the crappies. Seems like when the shad trees start blooming is when they start. Another old timer once said when the snakes start to appear and I saw a garter snake today. Not a hot bite but enough for a good meal and it will only improve. Water temperature was just above 50 degrees.î Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Prof T and I met on this forum and have become great friends. Glad I shared some “mushroom spots” and walleye techniques on the River with him cause he has returned the favor. Now we’re both a little more tight lipped! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I agree but I caught these on fatheads Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
