  1. unless you get to a weigh station before they close on the day you catch your fish it doesn't count
  2. Hilton. South shore of Braddocks Bay. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  3. Its actually a good thing. Back in the day youth was separate from the other divisions. Theoretically you could catch a grand prize fish and cash zero. In 01 my son won youth bow. No cash but if it was an adult fish would have cashed. Wasn't a big deal, wouldn't have been top 5. Pic of him I have at the ceremony with Patsy Destaffen from NK is awesome.

  4. Of the ten fish in the dead animal room, six different taxidermists. Some are definitely better than others. Take good pics and share them with your taxidermist. Think about how you want your fish posed. Also discuss how long it will take to complete. I brought a big bow my then 6 year old caught only to get it back when he was almost 9. Good conversation will hopefully avoid disappointment. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

  6. Just had a pretty red coyote in the backyard food plot. Wife saw a big gray the other night. As much as I look forward to bow season I can't wait to seeing some fur fly!!!! Killed a dozen (ish) yotes last year and I bet we get as many this year. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  7. Love your optimism!!!!
  8. I live a mile south of the lake and its roaring. The noise is pretty cool.
  9. have the day off, might just have to go take a look!
  10. Keep doing what you're doing Nick, you are doing it right!
  11. And to think 30 years ago a radio direction finder was the high tech gadget. Loran C and VHF were soon to follow. Next thing you know graphs were paperless...... How many here remember and miss the smell of a paper graph. Good news is I still run a lot of the spoons from those days and they still produce.
  12. Really cool.
  13. Welcome
  14. Nothing better than trying something new, taking a shot, and being successful. Good for you!
  15. I don't think so, it's held out towards the camera, look how big it's fin is. Looks like a post spawn fish, big head skinny body.
  16. My trip was cut short this morning, blew the starter on my trolling motor. Spoke to a couple guys that said good screen but slow fishing. Lake looked nice, blowing a little now out of the north east.
  17. Ontario and I both replied
  18. I pay little attention to color. I think where and how are greater than what.
  19. I'm starting in 80. Be out as well. Will be on 72.
  20. Was in 90 to 110. Decent screen but not as good as the morning. Pulled lines at 6 with one more brown and lost a pig brown behind the boat. Spent almost a half hour the last 50 feet. Would get it close only for it to run deep and out another 50. Pissed me off when the hook pulled. Saw him four or five times, was a slob. Ps, great Atlantic, haven't caught one in years. Great fish.
  21. Back for a short evening solo troll and the fish are still here. An hour in and have a mid 20's King and a brown. Slow trolling NK nags and a spin dr.
  22. Current sucks. Only good direction was east for me.
  23. Good amounts of bait on the bottom and some just off bottom. Fair amount of hooks including some big ones. Pretty good screen.
