Fishmaster

Hit the Big Lake Ont yesterday with Pickle left Port D around 7 am headed down to Jordan to see what the water temps were like ..37.7 deg off jordan seen 2 browns pulled in then we picked up ran to the bar to find 15 or 20 US boats all jiggin for Lakers fished around there for a couple hrs no fish so headed our way back to port d ....another week when i get the boat in the fish will turn on ... ;D

Used a buckets for years for bass and perch ..

17 to 40 fow ...all depends on water temps looks for the warmest water you can find ..40 deg and above is good water

FD see ya out there ill have the boat in the slip at weller around the 4th or 5th ...last year on the 5th of April we had 15 Kings by 11am ..hope this year is the same might be a little later with the cold Feb ..

A few browns pulled today but very slow yet water temps 37.6 and lots of junk floating ...we picked up ran to the bar lots of laker being caught jiggen but none for us today trolling another week or so ...water was 33.3 off the bar ..

I use them all summer long trolling for Walleye & Salmon keep the boat at the perfect speed and stop the boat from going to fast from waves pushing the boat ..you wont be disapointed just dont buy a cheap one becuase they will rip ..

Did they go Brankrupt ....i heard they took the MNR for alote of cash for Lic fees ..is it a action not run by the owners ...but run by Goverment Closesure

Call or Email your MPP and help support to save live bait ...

That wont be good if that happens to Port D

Wow thats not good ...if its that bad why not net them ..set net across the dam river i would think trying to get them outa the water would be better then watching them and hopen they dont get in the great lake ...but im sure like everything else there here allready ..

Viscount do you fish Lake Erie for perch in the spring and summer ...minnows are the best bait ...

It would be sweet if we could blast them Cormarants and Carp while trolling for Kings and Walleye

Lets hope Kings eat them before they get big ....our club will be stocking 540000 kings in the next month or so ..the US boys will be stocking 1.5 million kings to follow ..i also heard 100000 Alantic's will be stocked in the next week or 2 also..

Got it now thanks ..

Ok Rick how can we tell how many people use live bait..i would like to copy this and take it to the next Bait meeting and it's alote easyer if it shows how many people use live bait and how many don't ...

i liked the old poll better ....this is way to confusing for people ..

Im at work lol...wish i was on the water

Good idea Pikehunter ...how do i make a pool on this site is the next ?

How many people on this site use minnows for bait

Even if you plug it in the wrong way it will just reverse ...down will be up .....10 guage its lots but yes use a fuse ...

Very well said Garry...

Nice Silver Bullet...

So if i get a sticker on my bucket from out of the enfected zone leave it on my bucket then buy bait down here put in Erie minnows say i bought them from up north hows that going to work ...best thing would be is just tell guys buying bait DO NOT USE IN NON ENFECTED ZONES ....but like the 8 rod bandits bait will be caught moved where ever they like ..its not us at fault its SHIPS...

Lake Simcoe has not been tested ...Frogs gone Crayfish gone Leeches soon to be worms never ...SHIPS Forever ..as for plastics they will never keep a bait shop afloat..

The biggest thing that Pisses us Bait Harvesters down below 401 is that Lake Simcoe minnows are still being caught and sold and Lake Simcoe was not even tested for VHS ....you can bet if the virus is in lake erie its in simcoe and a many other inland lakes allready ...
