Yes you have to have a passport now after 911 and you do have to call ahead but its really not that big a deal. The fishing on the Canadian side is better than the US side for sure when the bite is...
Agreed, it should be a good thing not a negative effect.
The ice fishing in Erie is rocking right now some really good walleye and perch coming through the ice, more walleye than perch. A good friend of mine Mike Patterson is a guide up there and it's...

Keep in mind there are many different ways to throw a cast, some a lot more straining on you than others. If you have back and neck problems #1 go see my brother he is a chiropractor........ #2...
If comparing to cheap Walmart hooks as you said then yes you will see a difference they are much sharper and stronger. I personally use Owner hooks for bass fishing, stripers, and saltwater and they...
I have Optimas in my boat and it is very true on not letting them die all the way. If I let the battery die all the way my onboard charger won't charge it up. I have to put a standard charger on it...
Duayne,
I have factory loaded maps. I use the satellite type image I didn't know it could be changed, will have to look at that.
I have read that the external antenna does speed things up. I just...
One other thing worth mentioning. The HDS I have is very slow when you toggle back and forth between the fish finder page and GPS page. Not a huge deal breaker but my Raymarine is much faster just...
Nice!
Big ones are hard to come by these days but they are there.
I have an HDS-10 with structure and side scan. When I first got it, the first day out it messed up after a couple of hours of searching bottom with it. Called the next day and they sent me a new...
You won't have any problem catching bait. There is no reason to buy shiners this time of year if you have a cast net. At the head of most any creeks they are stacked full of bait you can catch as...
At the head of White Oak creek on Lake Cumberland is a big nesting area for the cranes, they are there every year. They are not sandhills though just regular grey cranes whatever they are called....
My setup is for fishing the jumps not standard blind cast fishing. You can catch them in the jumps with smaller tackle no doubt and its fun. However my set up is to run up to a set of jumps get one...
I use all GLoomis IMX Med-Heavy Fast Action 7' but any bass rod you like in Medium heavy should work 10-17 lb range. I generally use 30lb braid with a 20 to 25lb fluorocarbon leader. On live bait...
I primarily use it when they are in the jumps, I am casting into the jumps. Otherwise during the winter when they are back in the head of the creeks you can blind cast it and catch them as well. Its...
That's amazing some of you have not caught any on a buck tail / doll fly. I have caught more stripers on a doll fly than any other bait by a long shot. Like I mentioned before I prefer a top water...
Duayne, says spinner attached. This is what's crazy to me even though a good friend of mine prefers it also and it works for him.
I had some friends come down from OH to fish for 3 days and one of...
For me the doll fly is the all time most consistent bait. I prefer top water but that dang doll fly almost always works so if I can't get them to hit a top water I throw the doll fly. There are years...

LOL, we put the drone in the drink for the first time while in FL. I will post the video on Youtube and put link tomorrow.
Ahh come on I just spent a week and half in the keys with 20-25 mph winds all day every day with my boat. You don't need an enclosure you just need to know when to duck and duck and duck and duck...
Check your PM.
I have been catching them in the back of a creek in the evening almost every time I went back for the last 3 weeks. Just before dark and in only 3-7’ of water so very shallow but makes for a fun...
Bass fishing can be very discouraging but can also be very rewarding and when you throw in the tournament factor that multiplies by 10 plus. Until you are a pro and have to make a living at catching...
All you have to do is check for continuity on your switch. Pull the switch out, disconnect the wires and check for continuity on switch. Easiest way to do this is turn your volt meter on beeper so...
Don't feel bad I got my butt kicked this weekend too. Fished all day Friday and caught 1 drum first thing in the morning and that was it. Couldn't find any jumps morning or evening and just could not...
I second the beast then because it was there. I fish saltwater a lot and use the same boat, same fish finders and have never marked a fish even in the ocean of that size. Even sharks that I catch up...
I posted in another heading and found same thing PETER did found lots of fish in 30-40' and very active fish but they just laughed at my bait. Only caught 1 on live bait in morning in 2 days. Got...
Not that I have seen they are still on main lake area and mouth of creeks. But with that being said I have not gone back in the creeks because of finding plenty on main lake 30-40' range.
Anyone...
We caught a few this weekend, the mornings were a bust for me only 1-2 but the evening jumps were good. Took a customer and his daughters 7 and 9 and they had a blast catching them in the jumps. All...
I will be striper fishing both Friday and Sat morning and evening. Check your PM first2fish give me a shout if you need help.
You won't find too many where you are staying at this time of year. They wont be up to Burnside until next month usually. The closest to you would be if you head down to fishing creek almost to Lees...
You can teach them to fish, you can teach them both Chinese and English, but at 17 months they still think your trolling motor controller is a cell phone!!!!
He loves the boat, but Friday night...
It won’t make them come up all day but it will usually make them come up longer. Each set of jumps tend to stay up longer, more jumps occur and they last longer in the day. Same goes for over cast...
At 54 seconds is when the fish comes up to the surface but at 26 or 27 seconds is when it hits the top water bait then dives down.
The camera is a Gopro Hero 3 Black, and no you cant zoom or pan it...
Here is another video of striper jumps from Sunday, for all of you that can't get on the water.
I am using a top water and if you watch at 26 or 27 seconds in you see the striper hit the top water...

2 weeks ago when I fished all week I had a problem keeping bait spunky in bait well. Normally I just pump fresh water in all day and have no problem keeping shiners alive. But two weeks ago when the...
"Techno fishin is sweet!"
Sounds better than redneck technology as another friend put it.
The helicopter will fly 30 mph so if we have it in the air already it can get to the jumps before I can...
The timing should be fine if the weather stays cool you should have a good time. Looks like next week is going to get colder so you should be in good shape, I would keep the dates you have.
Well its more like a 300 vs a 75 hp.......
The phantom has GPS and can fly itself etc. plus come back to where it took off at if problems etc., has a lot more features and was built to film not just...
That is the phantom. That's the first time we did it turned out pretty cool but you put her in the drink and party is over she don't float or is it water proof. Will try to get better footage that...
Nothing on the planet better than Davis FSR #790 it is a fiberglass stain remover and it works 10x better than anything on the market. Other stuff works but not near as well, if you want it looking...
Check out the video of the stripers jumps yesterday 9/26 fish were schooling and jumping before dark. Didn't not experience any craziness, boats were scattered and respectful that I fished with....
Guess its time to invest in the 300 motor then. Wonder if momma will be ok with spending $25,000 to beat the other striper goons to the 30 second spot???
In regards to the 2-stroke or 4-stroke I would pick the 4-stroke first choice, but the newer 2-strokes aren't too bad to troll with. Mine is a 225 optimax (2007) on a 22' boat and it trolls at 3.2mph...
I fished all week with VMKY but in my own boat and had a tough time. VMKY caught more than I did, I never blanked but never got a school to play ball all at once. First time I have been on top of a...
I saw striper jumps yesterday evening about an hour and half before dark I swear. Only bad thing is they were baby striped bass.......... At mouth of channel of Burnside island ramp on the point AKA...
Hey 410th I think I talked to you on Cedar. I was the one in the center console boat with T-Top talked to you around the old rail road bed. That was my first time at cedar didn't have much luck just...
