I understand that the tag should always stay with the meat of the deer. Sent from my C771 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

The fish and bait will be in winter mode, deep bait and fish. I wouldn't be afraid to fish 170-200' down. Sent from my C771 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Lol! Yea I figured just busting on ya. I'm jealous you got out, I may try this week. Thanks for the report, last time I was out I had to go to long point to find fish. Sent from my C771 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Sounds like fun but I'm confused, Deans cove is on the west side and if you ran north that's no where near T- falls... :huh: Sent from my C771 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Had a really cool morning hunt yesterday. Caught this old girl settling into a small patch of Goldenrod. After a stalk and a fawn blatt she stood up and gave me a shot. I have been lucky to be able to harvest some nice deer in my time but this girl is one of my favorites. Weight, 135lbs, she had a broken leg that had healed and her teeth were almost totally gone. Guessing 6 1/2- 8 1/2 yrs old. The matriarch is down! As I went to retrieve her I almost stepped on her fawn, she taught many of those little ones well I tip my hat to her life, I give her my respect...

So true, NY is in trouble with its mature deer population. DEC take a look at how Ohio does it and make a plan to get NY out of that number ones worst place to hunt whitetail Sent from my C771 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Buddy got this one on a little walk around, wouldn't leave the does butt! Sent from my C771 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I agree with you in my experience the scum line is usually current running north. If there are weeds they will be in those. I think that the water is a bit more oxygenated in those slicks. In the spring the mud lines show current direction very well and I like to fish the edges then too. Next time out this winter I am going to try a large spoon or stick to mimic a stocker sized brown. I knew an older guy that had pics of huge browns he caught with 6" stick baits in the middle of the winter on Cayuga. Gonna give it a try.... again, nice report thanks.
