I haven't posted much on this site for over a year - to be honest mainly because I have fished very little until our most recent trip Our group decided to venture out of the Algoma region this time around and head further north to Nakina Ontario We used Ogoki Lake Outfitters run by John and Gloria Ritch http://www.ogokilakeoutfitters.com/ What a choice - we had by far our best trip ever for fishing and the lake and its surrounding beauty was just awesome I did a much lengthier report here and for whatever reason I have not been able to copy and paste and keep the formatting or the pictures https://www.canadafishingguide.net/forum-2/member-trip-reports-1/go-northwest-young-men-a-week-ogoki-lake/ For those who don't want to flip: We had some epic weather roll in, caught over 500 fish for the week and really had a great time If you are ever looking I would definitely endorse both Ogoki Lake and Ogoki Lake Outfitters A few pictures below Cheers Gordy

YES and welcome to the forum

I'm not sure when the price went bananas on the ion series. But I paid $400 at Crappy tire a couple years ago. Agreed that $800 is excessive, hope that's just temporary. There are some hidden benefits of battery augers; no fuel, oil, stuff on your hands, carb kits, etc.

Thanks for the links, interesting read, the Sandusky Register mentions the last good age class of fish occurring in 1958, I would have been 8 or so , I liked them as I could stillfish for them but Dad trolled for Yellows with bait casting gear, usually with a June Bug spinner and worm, they pulled too hard for a 8 year old to troll. Smaller size, deeper cooler water all goes along with my 60 year old memory, just don't ask what I had for lunch yesterday ?

https://www.bassmaster.com/slideshow/fizzing-fish-step-step-how The club I fished with had a tournament on Sandusky Bay one year and we limited ourselves to the bay itself. There was a much larger tournament going on at the same time from the same city ramp, they had no limits on their area and most made the run out to the deeper Lake Erie waters. We were coming back to the ramp shortly after their weigh in was finished and noticed seagulls floating around pecking on fish struggling on the surface, it was the smallies from their weigh in, and a lot were in the 4-5 pound range, it was a sick sight!
