  1. I would like to thank evryone's ideas about my leak, but now I feel sort of stupid. I bought a larger output capacity automatic bilge pump and installed it and no more leaks? So I was ready for any water coming in and could hardly wait to try the sucker out! But to my surprise no water getting in? So then I wondered what I did differently? I horsed up the drain plug tighter, DA! So I examined the hole and was crudded up so I cleaned it, new plug and vowala! no more leaks! Now you all can have a chuckle on me!
  2. I have a stupid questions but what is a bucking tool ? Or should I ask my wife, LOL
  3. +nope mine is exactly like yours, white with blue accents. I have a bimmy top swivel seats and electric trolling motor up front. I will be on the lake this Tues morning. I could give you my phone # and we could share some ideas and stuff if you like? My E mail address is [email protected]
  4. Yoy have a 70's Star-craft ss? So do I ! mine has a 90 hp Evenrude and all the fishing stuff you need. We should hook up someday and look like a pair of twins on the water.
  5. pumpkin seed and dark colored tube jigs, i/8th once tube sinkers to allow slow drop.
  6. Thanx for the heads up on that, so I won't waist my money or time on them.
  7. Fished since I was knee high to a grasshopper, done every type of fishing for fresh water species there is , or at least I can think of! Like to exchange ideas and techniques with others.

  8. Took some casting courses and basics so ready to try this out. Does anyone have any descent areas to get me started close to Hamilton area?
  9. Has any one used the slide divers? This is a new take off of the dipsy diver. Would like some feed back on them and where to get them.
  10. Just outfitted my boat for eyes and wondering where and how far out to get some Erie eyes , I have a deep 16' with 90hp evenrude , just want to be cautious. I have dipsy divers and planner boards. What would you recommend?
  11. What is a good way to find leaks in an aluminum boat with rivets? I filled it with water floor high and let sit but no leaks/ When sitting in water some is coming in from where ? Whats a good product to seal any leaks?
  12. Try Bellwood lake motor boats welcome. But if you really want some hot action for large smallies try Lake Erie out of Cristle beach area . You do not need to go off shore far at all, just fish the shoal's and rock ledges.
  13. welcome back, can we help you in anyway?
  14. Do not forget the simple tube jigs as you can drag them along the bottom to imitate craws, bounce the bottom like gobies, or swim them like a bait fish. I would stick to darker colors like pumkin-seed, green, blk-brown. Use a 1/4 ounce sinker to allow a slower drop. For smallies fish the drop offs, rock piles and a little deeper water then you would for largies.
  15. Oh Bellwood is still alive but because it's a reservoir you have to be patient and versatile. Keep it simple and stick with the basics. Do you have any electronics? Maybe you need to hook up with me to get some pointers, always like to share some ideas .
  16. To fish or not to fish is not the question, but "where and when may get you there"
  17. I have an idea , when and if they catch them , tie them up in the boat, pull the plug and send it out to sea.
  18. I agree with you Ironmaker, there is a time and place for everything, when I go fishing I leave all my cares and stress behind. Some people say I'm obsessed and crazy about fishing, that is their mistake as I proceed to tell them what fishing is all about for me any way.. " The excitement, anticipating, the scenery, fresh air, friendships, stories, adventures, learning, and sometimes the fight." Even if I fail to catch a fish or just catch and release I still find something from that adventure to take home in my memories. I really do not know of another sport that has so much going for it where you can go or take someone and enjoy the day in such a way.
  19. Hello everyone, this is my first post as you all guest, so no laughing or poking please. I love fishing and sharing stories as well as information. I have acquired a lot of information and experience in all aspects of just about every type of fresh water fishing there is . But as we all know one can never have enough and know it all . So that being said I hope you forgive me if I pick your brains  from time to time as I want you all to do the same to me . So to start with most of my trout fishing has been in the north , Owen sound,  South Hampton areas and would like to know of some closer areas in the golden horseshoe area and times to do so. Also I have never gone brook trout fishing and would like some spots to try.

  20. Thanx for your kind advice , will do as I learn to navigate this forum sight better. And nice walleye, makes me drool . Just to return a favor here is one my son is holding up that I caught at fall time in the grand river.

  22. That is one serious issue for sure but on the other hand, I lived right beside this lake and it was made from an intermitten creek at best and all farm land around it. So guess what we used on our fields to make our crops grow? Thats right , either manuer or chemicals. So all that runs into a holding tank called lake Niapenco making it like a big septic tank.So thats why they have to close the swimming every so often. Some fish species can tolerate higher consentrates of bacteria then others but you won't find any trout living in there for sure. I for one would like to see those test results in the summer!
