  1. East fork Pro Call Tommy
  2. Spent most of the morning targeting browns in close . Never had a hit in there . Did the North south thing for a while out to 160 and back . . Got a small salmon , and 2 more hits . Also another beauty of an Atlantic about 10 # . Can't bring myself to target Lakers , or at least yet . Temp was all over the place . One minute it's 62 , the next it's 48 , then it's 50 . Not stable at all . By next weekend it should straighten out , I hope . A little disappointed in my home port brethren . Only 2 other boats out I saw . Lake was nice today , what's up ?
  3. Definitely not as good for us today Got 2 real nice Atlantic's both around 8 or 9 #. 1 flew about 3 ft out the water . A few small salmon and a few more bites . Lot of crap floating around where we were . Tomorrow is another day .
  4. First day out of the home port . Started early till 1030 100 to 140 down 70 to 90 Spoon bite mostly with a few hits on flasher with my rigs . 10 for 17 hits All Salmon . Kings and Cohos a few skips Our biggest
  5. I caught a few perch( one slob ) and rock bass . And 3 small largemouth this morning .
  6. Be sure to wave as you go by . Our place has the red ADK chairs And please don't swamp me in my row boat .
  7. Actually , this is how things use to be . In the past , Trolling didn't really get good till around the 4th of July .
  8. With all the boat I see going out and no reports , I figured the fishing was less than stellar . Bass and perch have not been great also . One saving grace is lots of bait , which should pay dividends in in the future
  9. Untill the lake stratifies , I wouldn't expect much . Historically , this has been the worst time of the year to fish . We are about 2 weeks behind . We caught a bunch of Smallmouths this weekend . Looked to me like most of them were not spawned out . What a turn from last year
  10. As long as the kids have their time , I see nothing wrong with this , let them try
  11. Well all I can say is this is a , " watch out what you wish for type of thing ". Fast forward to April 1 of next year . A lot of fathers who's fathers took them will be taking their kids to go fishing , like they did every year since the begining of time . And what will they say about this development? Their kids won't be able to do what they did as a right of spring . And questions will be asked as to why . And you can bet that TU will be the ones being the scapegoat , right or wrong . TV cameras on crying kids is all that's needed to make TU look bad . And I'm sure their will be no shortage of angry fathers ready to sound off. And with social media , the sky is the limit . Don't mess with fathers children . And If ever there was a day for a protest , that is it . I got nothing but love for you Dave , but I would talk to some people .
  12. Bring it to a professional to have it checked out . Absolutely nothing to be letting go
  13. Yeah , this seems like a dumb idea. Anything that gets kids fishing , and being successful is good for the fishery . It's close to a population center so the masses can enjoy it .And maybe some kids get the bug , and turn into us
  14. Agreed with Rolmops Get a new tank hoses fittings and primer bulb . No issues while at sea
  15. Yeah , well 2 mornings in a row out of my row boat , no fish . I don't think that ever happened to me in all the years I've been there . Lots of bait and a bunch of brown trout stockys Hopefully this west wind and warm weather straightens things out
  16. You have not been missing much so far . Hopefully this better weather / wind patterns straighten out the lake. Depending on what port you are out of , the fishing this far has been not great . The West end seems to be the best bet so far .
  17. When we were at Wilson for the LOC We hit 3 logs trolling There was all kinds of stuff out there.
  18. If I remember correctly , my Mag 10s I had late 80s auto stop worked when the ball broke the surface. It also has a lexan thing with a snap swivel on one end you had use so rigger could sense when ball broke the surface . Loved my Mag 10s . Great rigger , fast enough . I just wore them out
  19. Really , are we a worried about dragging your sinker across the bottom . For crying out loud . And might suggest a healthy dose of bourbon for that headache . You know , for medicinal purposes.
  20. I have kicker also and run everything off my battery, no problems .put a noise filter on your kicker for better performance with all your electronics . Got mine from Kell Industries where I got my Depth Raider . Game changer .
  21. Out of curiosity , why the separate battery and not your main battery ?
  22. Well i certainly hope so . That would mean there are a good amount of Kings around . Which currently isn't the case , for whatever reason. I feel I'm a pretty fair fisherman and have things figured out with these trout and salmon pretty well . But one thing I haven't figured out is how to catch them when they aren't around.
  23. Curious to see how good this jigging thing is this year . Last year there were kings all over . Doesn't look like that's the Case this year.
  24. We need a serious north west wind for a few days to straighten things out
  25. Was the water gun clear ? Way back when we use to go offshore and look for scum lines and temp breaks . Does anyone do this anymore ?
