that's good to hear as we are heading that way on Saturday for 2 weeks those fleas are enough to drive you crazy especially when the fish are not hitting
is it that the summer has not been hot enough that there is not a set up this year or is it wind directions or a combo of both ? Now at July 20th if it don't set up soon you think it may not this year ?
Glad to see there are some fish out there heading to Fair Haven on Saturday for 2 weeks plan to fish hard everyday have an arsenal to throw at em hope I find the right combo
accompanying a outdoor writer is how we got to know Hickory we would pull into Catfish creek with a large cooler full of lobsters and no problem ever getting a dock for the boat, told just what the fish were hitting and where to go.
One year in the spring things got slow in that neck of the woods and we took a drive ran into a old friend at Fair Haven he told us it was hot for browns. The next day we got Old Hickory took a ride west for a spell with a couple of bottles of scotch and a couple of boats he hit em hard then over the years fished all the way west to Hamilton and back for some reason Fair Haven is my favorite place
Screwy Louie back then was a great help in getting us on the fish.
I used to fish with Old Hickory quite a bit we stayed at a empty house he had in Catfish Creek in the spring we just pulled out of the creek casting Cleos catching Browns almost every cast, netting up alewives on the surface and casting them into the bubble. Dam should have bought that place from Neil when he offered it for 5 grand . Also fished with Ken Budd for Steelies in the Oswego river he was not a very personable guide but loved to fish hard.
