  1. If every fish species were as aggressive as those little buggers it wouldn’t be fishing it would be catchin!!
  2. I know a lot of guys that aren’t happy about the tournaments because of the way things were run by previous organizations. The bass guys are the number 1 reason why people have a bad tast in their mouth. I think the people who come out of the wood work to sponsor these things are truly amazing!! On the other hand firing the fish in the dumpster after the show is another bad taste left behind. I thought I heard about someone taking them for the needy. A lot of the bytch is why can’t there be a catch, weigh, measure, with pics and release. I know there is a lot of room for cheating there. The main thing is society is changing by leaps and bounds!! We have the tree huggers, the frog lovers anything that pertains to taking a life anymore is frowned upon. Nothing gets me more irate then some azzhole blowing the horn for a mile if they see my or anyone else’s truck parked along the road during the hunting season. I think with fishing it is the only sport that the fish-(animal) gets a second chance. This might be why the fishing business is booming. This generation that’s coming up behind us is down right scary, most all accept a few would starve to death if there wasn’t grocery stores, and the cluelessness of where things come from or if they can’t have instant gratification they are not interested, such as the fast pace video game on their phone!! they positively can not wait for a hour or more for a hit, then when they get the fish to the boat, they freak because they don’t know to do next!! This may sound over exaggerated but trust me it’s not, you wouldn’t believe the stories I hear from my wife’s job as a school teacher. Hope this sheds a little light on this very subject. It might be from a different angle of perspective but it’s the way of the world and we’re taught especially me to keep our thoughts to ourselves, if I had a dollar for every elbow I took to the ribs from my wife because I speak my mind the way I was taught to be or people would walk all over you. Being in business for 22 years with the general public was a real eye opener!! I personally know parents that are so frustrated with their own child because they won’t engage in the outdoors they just throw their hands in the air and go themselves, but if they would have taken them at a younger age as we see on this very site, parents getting their children into fishing or the outdoors early before they can form their own beliefs from their friends or the internet. We had children fishing with dads out there not long ago, this is what is needed way more than one realizes!! I hope this doesn’t turn into a cluster mess!! If this is your beliefs then in layman’s terms it’s your opinion!!
  3. White perch-white bass what ever the hell they are their a pain in the ass. Like posted above worm stealing little bastards, period!!

    Fun day

    Cool we fished Oneida Year’s ago as a weeks vacation, we stayed at the end when your going north over the bridge on 81 it’s to your right it was a blue marina I think, it had a place to stay in the back and we had our own slips from the marina. We caught a fair amount of eyes, it was a nice stay. We ate in many different places. I don’t know why but I never fished it again. My favorite place if my memory serves me right it was a bouy 108?? It was in the bend of buoys. We caught a lot of species of fish in the lake a fun time. Thanks for posting!!

    Fun day

    Even short eyes are better than no eyes!! Congrats to your outing!! If you don’t mind me asking what body of water were you fishing??
  6. Awesome job guys just proves you don’t need all the bells a whistles to catch fish. Common sense goes along way when it come to going without all the gadgets that a lot of others rely on. In my opinion you couldn’t have picked better timing as the gibbous waxing moon, “the 3 days before” and the “waning gibbous” the three days after a full moon are the best times for fishing, in my world, some don’t believe in it but I’ve had enough success to say this is the days I fish and have been make our Canadian fishing trips around this theory for 30+ years and I feel we have had more way more success than when other guys booked trips that I went on. Either way congrats to your day you have beaten the odds in many different ways!! PAP!!
  7. I believe those are most pain in ars fish called a white bass. They foul you up so often I usually move to get away from those damn things. Some say the bigger ones are good eating, we caught a few big ones and we filleted them and they are eatable, coming from a guy that’s not a fish eater!!
  8. If it were a outboard it would of been sitting in my driveway long ago!! For sure!!
  9. What’s the main motor in this boat?? I’m looking to get away from the fiberglass tank I have. Thanks for any info!! PAP. If hrs are available would like to know that also!!
  10. No you won’t have to cut the floor under those box type seats is were the screws to lift the panels out, I forgot to say the guy before me installed pedestal type seats where those other type seats were. Sorry I didn’t think about that!!
  11. The north shore drops off a lot faster than the south and west shores. They very gradually work there way to the deep, by the time your in 60’+feet your to far away from the structure of the island where the north shore drops in quicker and I believe it’s a holding place for the fish during the migration to and fro the Bay of Quinte {spelling} it’s a jog from Henderson that’s the run I used to make. Once your at the green can by Galloo isl. it’s still a jog, but it’s definitely worth the run, that was before I hit 50+ in age. I don’t know if I would trust myself anymore. All though we used to make a 25 mile run out of Port Clinton to the Canadian border every day for a week the last few times I fished Erie. The great times we had out there was worth the punishment your body took on getting there, the fish were bigger nice 24” to 26” fish in closer to much trash fish and 17 1/2. 18 3/4 you had to weed through them. I don’t know the laws anymore of crossing the border, from what I hear, I’ll just stay on this side of the line. Those that fish those waters are blessed by the walleye gods!! For sure.
  12. Main Duck over the U.S./Can. Border. Used to fish that area for eyes before the 911 incident and things got a lot tougher crossing the border.
  13. I had a crest liner years ago I needed to remove the two seat pedestals and remove the floor piece and the unit was right there, six screws out and there it was out!! I got one from crest liner and it looked like the same universal ones you get at West Marine, mine I had to calibrate which is nothing more than bending the float rod. Mine was a 1750 with a 30 gal tank.
  14. How did the Ducks treat ya?? Thanks for any info. PAP.
  15. Absolutely great job!! The great outdoors is where common sense and a lot of other meaningful things in life are learned. Not in front of the idiots box killing your opponent as he or she gets up time after time, not how it goes in the real world!! Reel em get the fish off the hook and in the water so “It doesn’t DIE is stressed” in the fishing world. Nice going dad. Looking forward to the end of softball season so my daughters can hit the water also!!

    Seneca Fish Camp

    How bout a pic of the eyeball??
  17. Yeeooww those were some hungry ladies!! I find it amazing what these fish can inhale when they are aggressive, which adds truth to the Muskie hunter stories, claiming they catch these pain in the A$$ walleye on there 8” gear they are pulling or casting!!
  18. !!! How bout it. That had to a adrenaline rush for sure!!!
  19. Why did you disconnect the brakes?? What did you use for a tow rig, what is expected to be used a tow rig!! 1/2 or 3/4 ton??
