Hey Bill, salmon do hit when they are in the river. But only when they are still relatively fresh. once they turn black and really ugly yes theystop hitting but maybe thats because they most likely almost blind. Berge

Hey Victor i will pm you. Berge

My son is staying in Chatham for the summer and wanted to fish somewhere close by for channel cats or carp. if anyone has any info around the area of Shrewsbury or vicinity it would be appreciated. You can pm me if you like and no i am not looking for specific spots, only if this area of erie is worth trying. Thanks Berge

yes pretty much done now.

Great post Mike, love the spinner fishing eh. Berge

mmmmm the smell of carp in my steelhead net, i think i'll bring my other net. let me know Mike and Victor i'm ready for carpin.

Nice salmon, wow that first one is very chunky. BB

Kelfun, great job buddy and nice steely. Yes it was a cold morning i froze too. Berge

Thanks guys, it was a lot of fun. My son is gone for the summer so it was nice getting out with him one last time this spring. Oh and MIKE, there are still lots of steel around buddy. Went out again this morning, this time by myself and found that there were even more fish around today. . So Mike when you going to take me carpin and show me how its done??? Berge

It had been about a week since last outing and the itch got to me. My son was in town for the day and also needed to get out, so out one more time. We went to our first river and had a nice hike but couldn't find any fish so after an hour we left for our next destination. Didn't have to walk very far and got into them right away. Between two of us we landed 11 ranging from about 3lbs to about 10 lbs. Lost a bunch more. Pinkies and whites worked good and also switched to a silver spinner which was great watching them chase and hit it. Here is a few pics As you can see i love the release shots. Berge

Hey Mike, you up for a drift? let me know. Heading out somewhere this weekend. I'm so evil lol. Berge

Wow buddy, great pictures and great times. It has been fun sharing the rivers with you.

Mike great report and a lot of fun, great fishing with you.

Nice fish, makes it even better when you get one in tough conditions. Berge

Hey Mike i'll send you a pm and let you know where. My arms are sore from yesterday, i think together we got into over 50 of them we lost count. Berge

Nice fish MJL, must have given you a great fight. Maybe we'll see you this weekend on the tribs.

Living my youth again? what, you calling me old!!!!!!!!!! Always nice to get out, chat and catch a few steelies with friends. Silvio great report bud. MJL it was nice to meet you, maybe we'll all meet up again soon.

Massive steely and a few nervous moments as it showed itself from under the slush and came to the net. Hey bud i wonder what you would have done to me if i had muffed the net job eh.

A sportspal g2g sounds good, heres a few pics of my sons 14ft squareback Love your pictures , its amazing where you can get to with a canoe.

Hey buddy, looks sweet. Want to see it in action soon. Wonder what that reel is going to look like beside a steely in a pic.

Yes, i've been saying for years that the limits should be reduced on the big lake. But they keep reduceing limits in the rivers and leaving the lake limits alone. Most fish caught in rivers are released compared to most fish caught by boat are killed. Would be nice to see an accross the board limit of 2, just might help. Nice to see you getting into a few brownies. bb

Hey Bill, almost went out today but the winds told me to stay in bed. yesterday was sure interesting, would have been nice to see the one that broke me off. we'll do it again when we get a warm spell. Berge

Hey Dave love that shot with the snowy background. We got into a few but the best is getting out and having a blast with good friends. Kemper calling that fish, just crazy!! Berge

Thanks guys. Eh Dave i'll try anything , oh and don't you know that bows love the sound of trains?

Got out today on my own and landed a couple decent bows. the water was mint but not many fish around today. BB
