cya there Dave! Hope to see more OFC'rs there anglers rely more & more on the advancement of their marine electronics, I havent met anyone yet who is as "in tune" with them as Jos. Allways is a learning experience when he is speaking.

I have allways enjoyed following your speckie reports & the trips to Kansas Dan, and as well as the great photos that accompany them happy 2012 to ya!

Im in the same position, & just may pull the trigger on a 24v system

@thefishdawg its fun, great way to stay on top of things, mostly use it for fishing & sports updates

yes you are! one of the best stocked shops in the province

roger, i run 10-40 synthetic in my 30hp Johnson 4stroke, 8 years in now, no issues

1997 - was a good year over all but the real cheery was that while I was in grade 10, the teachers were on strike for 2 weeks in mid October, me & my pals did real well on the fall run of salmon & trout. 2008 - Was able to get out almost every weekend, fished with a variety of good friends on different bodies of water through the season and even managed a good streak of success in comptetive angling.

thanks for sharing that fine tribute Lew, i think about you & Dianne around this time each year

i like your style Roger, go get'em bud

the voice of reason

The Okuma Convector with out a doubt is the best LC reel for the dollar right now I have a full fleet of them for my salmon/trout/walleye trolling applications and have not had a single issue yet in 4 yrs. In the same price range, the Daiwa Sealine is a close second.

Hi everyone. The following is from the RWFC site. Please help us out if you can. The more votes the better! As many already know the newly formed Metro East Anglers Inc. have been working very hard to continue operating the Ringwood Fish Culture Station going forward from here. At our first official meeting we outlined the program. Its primary focus will be the continued Restoration of the Coho Stocking Program for Lake Ontario. With the loss of the OFAH earlier this year and many of it's sponsors a need to fill a large funding hole has became part of the responsibilities of our membership. That being said one of our long outstanding members and supporters Ettore DellaAquila has decided to throw our hat into a competition ring for community funding support. Great Job Ettore. The address is as follows and all details can be viewed there: http://www.avivacomm...acf11597#.ToW-2 The idea here, as I understand it, is that THE MOST VOTES move forward in the competition. Aviva will receive hundreds of ideas but only those that our supported with the best numbers will move forward. I ask all supporters of Ringwood to make an effort to get us as many votes possible and help us win the funding we need to continue these types of programs. This would very much help us concentrate on what we have done best for the last five years. Raising and stocking our Salmon/Trout into Lake Ontario. Voting starts October 3rd, 12:00PM Please feel free to help me get the word out. Facebook, Twitter and all the other social media sites are the best way to attack this competitions. I am told. Please post on your walls! Thanks for your Support

Hey all, thought I throw out a reminder that next Sat will be the Strait Line Anglers Club annual walleye tournament. This year, we will be at a new location, North Erie Marina in Port Bruce. All are welcome to participate and you can find more details here: http://straitlineanglers.com/SLA_LakeErie_Walleye/SLA_LakeErie_Walleye_Tournament.htm hope to see some OFC'rs there!

you can try running a diver down the chute but you will be far better off running it on the side between your rigger and planer boards. with 30lb wire and having a #1 diver on a 2.5-3 setting, let it out 150-200 feet no doub from mid May through the rest of summer, wire diver combos will get ya lots of fish when they are properly deployed also on smaller narrower boats, its preffered to keep the middle (chute) open and free of lines to avoid tangles and to leave lots of room for landing fish, to each their own though

thanks for sharing your report ill suggest next time pull those flat lines from the middle (chute) and run a diver on each side instead. Divers catch lots of fish & you will have much less tangles

see ya Tuesday folks

Strait Line Anglers "The most common question about the club is the name and it's spelling "Strait" rather then "Straight". It's simply a play-on-words. Strait is a name of a long, large size water-body, such as the Davis Strait. This is somewhat descriptive to the waters that our club members typically fish- Lake Ontario and Lake Erie."

Been a while since there was one. Thought I would throw this out there.. The Strait Line Anglers Club will be having its next monthly meeting on Tues April 5 at 7pm @ the Grimsby Legion. As allways, all are welcome to attend. While we are a multi-species club, the focus that evening will be on Spring Salmon as we are happy to have guest speaker Karl Chmilnitzky (captain of Team Twofish & the 2010 Scotty King Of The Lake series)on hand to share some tips, stories and also have a little Q&A We will be in the basement but the bar will be open upstairs. We plan to start promptly at 7pm. directions & more info www.straitlineanglers.com or look up our facebook page hope to see some of you there

No different then any other day on the water. We wont be checking for insurance. Hoping to draw a good field for the event!

thought ths would interest some of the Lake Ontario anglers Pay Every Day Salmon Derby http://www.payeverydayderby.com/ 3rd Annual Feed The Fry Salmon Tournament, Port Dalhousie Pen Project fundraiser http://www.straitlineanglers.com/Feed_The_Fry/Feed_The_Fry_tournament.htm 36th annual St Catharines Game & Fish Assc.

im a tiller guy - '04 16.5 Crestliner Canadian i have my eye on this on

thanks terry been a while since we had charlotte here

spoonpullers may have given you a headache but having your wire diver combo violated & robbed of 500 feet of line will give you a heart attack (and quite the rush!)

some great info there for sure where abouts are you located? one of the best ways to shorten the learning curve besides researching other trolling specific websites is to hook up with other anglers and "apprentice" a couple times and feel things out before you go at it in your own boat

no thanks i prefer local small town shows and tackle shop "open house" sales instead
