  1. If anyone is missing or knows someone missing a canoe. I found one half submerged on a rock in Oswego. Still floats no leaks. Would like to see it back to owner. I don’t do social media so this all I could think of. Tell me type color also has serial numbers still. Appears to have been a drift for quite sometime. Thanks 

  2. You shouldn’t have to explain your reasoning. For posting a fishing report on a FISHING FORUM…I never think to post reports kinda makes me want to more now. Ive never had social Media either. I take pics for myself..but I don’t hate on people who do...I’m all about helping others catch fish it really feels awesome when someone I help. Is stoked and extremely grateful for sharing infor.I’m not insecure about my abilities. There fish everywhere not just in one or two spots on a giant lake lol

    For Gambler, Brian of course there wasn’t 2700 Landlocks in the Oak two years ago. But there were a few hundred that were caught several times. As far as misidentified, people usually confuse a salmon as a brown trout not the other way around. 

     

    The St Mary’s is a multifaceted fishey loaded with everything from Kings, coho’s  pinks and Atlantic Salmon as well as steelhead, kamloops rainbows walleyes, bass and tons of white fish. It’s has alewife, smelt, a huge caddis and Hex hatch. 
     

    Right now the river is filling up with LL’s. Around Labor Day the Pacifics arrive. Then steelhead. 
     

    Why the river is so successful for all these species is the St Marys drains Superior into Huron so water temps are favorable . And you are catching these fish while the big ships are transversing the two lakes. 
     

    it took Roger Griel the lead biologist at Lake Superior State University nearly 20 years to create this highly successful LL program.

     

    Lake Michigan is also having success with LL’s. All of the Great Lakes programs are members of the Great Lakes Fishery Commission. GLFC’s mission is to kill the sea lamprey, and restore native species to each lake. Before everyone gets crazy about the current lamprey infestation, remember our rivers went two years without TFM treatments due to Covid and closed borders. The TFM team is from The Soo and the St Marys river area.

     

    There is a new Sheriff in town. Bureau Chief Steve Hurst has revised fishery management plans for all of NYS. Lake Ontario and all the inland waters. And he is keen on trying to rehabilitate native  species not just in LO but the ADK, Catskills,  Finger Lakes, Tug Hill etc. 

     

    Love Stripe Bass and they are a formable foe in the salt. But I personally wouldn’t enjoy them more in LO than the Chinook’s. Besides traveling to the sound to fish for them and the tuna’s

    gets you a shot at some of the greatest fresh sea food on the east coast.

     

    Lots of opinions on the LL program. Make yourself heard and respond to the public comment period.

    Salmon River last summer had lamprey treatment done by staff from Lake Champlain. Are they not who usually does the treating?

    I've hunted large brookies my entire life.  Lots of places now days only a shorter ish hike.   I like 5 ponds  North of the Stillwater REs. Many 5 pound Brookies up there. 
     Past few years Lower Sargent has produced large fish,  Spruce has big ones.   I believe the State Record Brook trout came out of Spruce, not Silver Lake.  
    Rainbows all over the place throughout.  Just search the DEC stocking list.   Lake Trout, Lake George but motor traffic in there.  

    Tons of nice brookies all over the St. Regis Canoe area.  

    Brooks spawn in October though, I've never really fished for them at that time.  Might want to check the reg's on that.  A lot may be closed to fishing.  

     

    You know of any Splake being in any of those waters? Bucket list fish for me 

  5. anyone know a shop in the 315 area or even just in NY…that does rod repair?..I’m trying to avoid sending it to St Croix just for times sake.. I’ve called a few places in Pulaski and none do repair I had a rod guide replaced at a local place here in Cuse…and they put on the complete wrong size and type..after assuring me they had the right one so never again…I prefer to not do it myself on this one..

  6. Very nice! As for the charter I guess it depends on how bad  of a sin he committed??? Lol. But seriously I’m not sure that’s a tough one potentially. I wasn’t there but don’t know  if...one incident warrants potentially tarnishing his name ya know...that’s your call..The guide I’d used is a awesome dude really professional and laid back. You didn’t launch from Godfrey did ya? Lol  

  7. 5/30 landed 4 eyes lost 2 kept biggest one that  choked the blade 20’. Rest released..all caught in 15-20 FOW on baby perch color blade bait. 6/1 landed 6 keeper eyes biggest 22’...2 shorts...3 nice big perch...hooked something that had no problem towing me around in the yak for about 20 min as the sun. Went down never got a great look at it...guessing a big fouled carp?...all but one fish caught in 15-20 FOW...one eye caught in 9 FOW...all on baby perch blade bait that eventually turned gold when the tape wore off. Im really enjoying catching these smaller Oneida eyes on my new medium light rod. I’m glad I decided to go lighter when I upgraded. Tight lines!   I know I’m not the best at filets don’t keep fish very much at all lol

  8. Finally first time this spring I got into more than one or two eyes at night shore Casting Otisco. Including my biggest one this year 29’3/4 so close to 30!.. Full moon..the alewives were in full force..blow ups everywhere...felt great why I love Otisco at night in the spring. Went 4/5 On sliver blade bait and 1 on Keitech Swing Impact. Saw quite a few other guys out. Be cool to see how other people have been doing. I didn’t notice any other hook ups. Top fish is the 29’

  9. A great guide on Oneida I’ve used many times is Full Tank Charters with Mike Tankersly...I prefer to jig as well and he’s all for it..slammed em on jiggin raps last summer...he’s a great dude very fairly priced...we’ve always launched from Godfrey Point 

  10. Thanks for sharing your opinions. I always handle fish a little as possible. Fish alone a lot so very seldom get pics but when I do I put a glove on my tail hand. Now I’m wondering if that’s better or worse for slime removal. Regardless if  losing fish is good for stocking. I like to release fish because of the feeling I get watching them swim away. Hopefully to live on and grow. Was an eye opener for me. On the west coast I see a lot of guys use those cradle nets like ppl use for Muskie. Really considering getting one if. They are that much better for the fish 

  11. I came across this big steelhead on the SR today. At first she appeared dead picked her up took a pic and measured her 32 inches!..it then started to flop put her back in water and she took off. After laying motionless in inches of water. Anyone else ever see a steelhead like this? Or have any thoughts what may of happened??..I was wondering if maybe it’s from improper handling after being caught?..either way it’s a shame was a really big fish
