Did you make it out on the big lake today?

Lol..... Well hillbilly this is gonna be my first trip ever with my brand new boat so I'm gonna be being extra cautious. I'm just hoping to catch a fish period no matter the species. But after I get some time under my belt I'll be sure to look into going north of the boarder off the bar. We're launching out of wilson so I'm thinking 3-6 miles is about as far as I'm going to travel for my first expedition. Hopefully I'll be able to locate some fish in that zone.

I fish out of Niagara on the Canadian side, and it's a rare day on the water that we don't catch fish. Welcome to the big lake, perhaps our paths will cross. Any questions just ask. I'm not a pro but have fished the south Shore for a few years.

Thanks hillbilly. We weren't planning on crossing the boarder. That line should be definitive on my lowrance

I find it gets lost in the wind when the fishing is hot....lol. I got nailed the opposite way a few years ago. I now support the New York fishery 100%

Well..... There's only one way to learn then. I'll find out Friday afternoon when we get there I suppose. Thanks for your help.

Make sure you have an ontario fishing license if you're heading west around the bar...or be careful not to cross the line.

So when you say outside of the bar do you mean in NOTL? how deep?

I run a camera on my boat (same as in my truck) for personal entertainment as well as document anything that may happen during an outing. Anything questionable...show the authorities and let them deal with it. Social media occasionally gets out of control.

Oh and 3 Lakers and one coho off the gun range in Niagara Sunday afternoon in 14 to 20 ft of water...j11 tiger was the hot ticket. 45.7 degree water
