CRUD150

My crew. Photo's are a year apart and I don't think they ever moved!

Nice, glad it all came together!

Another Great Lake transplant from the south. Hydra Sports 1800cc with a Mariner 150 both 1989 from Fla. Great little fishing boat that will handle more wave than most guests can take:)

Some where along the way the boy learned how to catch fish.

Also and truly memorable. My new boat crew. And a year later, they have not moved!

Memorable Firsts in the outdoors- Candace "Candy" Hanlon. mmmm Sorry to bust a thread, but this really stuck with me and was the first memory to come to mind.😈

I would suggest you try from Port Franks 15 min. south of the Bend. Troll the cut on rough days and on calmer days you can venture out a bit to the shoals on the lake. You will find them with some work. Cheers.

White kitchen cutting boards, sold at Canadian tire. Cut em to size, use 5200 adhesive, they work great.

Fish caught #'s were down, but fish size were way up this year. Pretty well took a 17 pounder to get on the top 25 board. That means they are eating something out there!

Dome over Springfield.

Funny stuff

Yes the salmon on Huron are getting to be ghosts of the past. The changing water conditions and forage are at least bringing back native species along our shore of Huron. Walleye are coming along north from Sarnia and we are getting more in the Bayfield- Goderich waters. Starting to spend more time learning to target them. Just not quite the same thrill as getting a good screaming 20 lb king on the line.

Great smiles son and pop time!

We do well with rainbows.My Buddy Big Larry 2015 Chantry derby biggest bow 16+lbs. My sons 2016 Chantry entry 11lbs, Larry entered a 12 on the first day and won biggest bow 2 years running. When asked by guys in the derby how we catch big bows, we tell them we just try and catch a big salmon:) We have not caught a decent salmon during the derby for a number of years:( Seriously, pull some orange for bows shallow. Blue and silver tricked some kings earlier this year north east end. Or go out to the islands for some lakers. Hope you get some nice weather and have good luck! Enjoy, it is a beautiful bay to tour and spend time on the water.

A few thousand for the shiny lure that caught the sucker that married me.
