Found a 4 lb skipper king when we pulled lines Saturday morning and had it for dinner last night. Treated it like an oven-baked trout -  head & tail cut off, stuffed with fresh lime slices and a spice blend I like. Sealed it in tinfoil and baked it - delicious!

They're all terrific fresh, cleaned properly and out of cold water. I've never eaten one that was running the river - usually too busy chasing steelhead!

Nice job! I was hosting friends, out fishing with Jolly and we had to give up early before they turned inside out. Have to stick to flatter water for them next time!

mine will......... One year I had some king carcasses in my garden....... won't do that again.

I'm slow, but I'm not stopped.

My grandmother loved carp carcasses for her rose bushes. Her neighbors were not amused...

are these still available?

 

Doesn't look like it. I'll close the listing tonight if I sell them to Puffintuff...

Still good for 5pm? I'll throw the poles in the car before I head to work...

I find that deet doesn't work very well on them. Been using Sawyer
Products with Picaridin. Seems to work better on them. Available at Gander.


Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
 

Ditto.
Started using it for the biting flies in New Hampshire and found it works well on Lake Ontario too. Just have to respray every few hours.

That's what working at Bass Pro was like for me!

This topic pops up every once in a while since the DEC posts advisories on what and how much to eat out of New York waters. 

This is a pretty good take on the issue: https://www.themeateater.com/cook/butchering-and-processing/eat-fish-die-happy-clarifying-consumption-advisories

Well, at least you kept your hair!

Any trades for fishing or hunting gear before I pull the listing?

Really windy Sunday am in 8M and no movement. 5pm and a pair of doe came through with a six point trailing closely behind, hot for the larger of the two. They passed eighty yards out but the smaller came my way and gave me a shot, tracking right to left in my blind. Looks like she stopped about five feet too far to the left...

Set a blind yesterday afternoon. Had a few doe coming in but got chased off by a buck, then two hours later got to watch a small 4 point for 45 minutes. Too small to shoot but got some crappy video at 30 yards. I'd like a crack at this old warrior...
