Much thanks to Dale Lane, Lt Matt Lochner, and all the other volunteers and sponsors that made another Yates County youth hunt an overwhelming success to all that participated. Unfortunately I was not able to get a gobbler within range of my hunter(which this year happened to be my best friend/co-boat owner’s daughter). But we all had a memorable experience including a 200 yard crawl through an alfalfa field to get 35 yards from two toms that were just to wary for us. Lots of gobbling and encounters both days tho so I think she’ll be out again. This is my 6th year “guiding” for this program and I can’t tell you what an honor it is to be a part of. Congrats to all!

Anyone use anything special to store their trolling spoons in while out on the kayak? The special mate boxes are just way too bulky in the kayak and the standard stowaways can’t keep the spoons separated well enough. I was thinking about ordering some of the Amish Outfitters spoon pouches and trying them out but have never seen or used them in person. Anyone have any recommendations??

We’re still about a month out from typical smelt action. 44 degrees is optimal before they start running. Niagara River is 36 right now. Need some warm rains before that picks up. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

General consensus is the water is so low that the fish can’t get in and out from the lake. Channel is ‘clogged’. That’s just what I read on here and IceShanty tho. Haven’t been out there myself. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Last time the west branch froze up(4years ago?) it seemed to be the glory days of laker fishing where anyone that could get out to 40fow could have the time of their lives. Which lasted pretty much the whole season if I remember correctly. Has things changed in the lake since then? Minus the west branch not freezing up part.

“Bait Master” in Springwater. His name is Al. Great guy and great bait. Price a month ago was $15 for one or $12 for 5+. I know they were in high demand at the time and he was a little backed up with orders, but he was still planning on keeping up with demand as best as possible.
