MCTFisher9120 Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Hey Guys, well my buddy Gone Fishin caught the bug and decided to put his boat and motor together last night so we could get out today for some fishing on Lake Ontario...It was awesome, we bundled up and had little trouble launching out boat, lot's of ice but we had maybe 6 feet on either side of the boat from shore to ice. Once out of the bay we got out on Lake Ontario and slow trolled Rapala hard baits behind the boat, both stickbaits and jointed ones. Didn't take long on the right stretch before I got the first and only fish for out outing but was well worth it. Here is my first brown and not my last, going to be doing this lot's more haha, was soo much fun. Only had my frog rod but did it ever put it to work Here's my PB and wicked fish Till next weekend's report comes MTBF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cudz Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 nice fish! Time to invest in a survival suit if you are going to make a habit out of going out this time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave524 Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Very nice brownie a little longer and leaner than most and a nice broad tail, nice change genetically from the football strain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCTFisher9120 Posted March 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 nice fish! Time to invest in a survival suit if you are going to make a habit out of going out this time of year. Ya I definitely wan't one man, I'll make due for the next little while but once work for me start's up I'll be grabbing one...after all the fall will be very long and full of trolling I hope! As for the comment on the fish, this fish was great looking with a full belly still on it...Can't wait to get into some more of these fish as the trips pass by.

fishnsled Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Nice .. looks like an Atlantic to me Dang, beat me to it. Nice fish Mike, be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctranter Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Nice fish Mike. Definetly looks like an Atlantic, but I'm sure the experts on here can make the call. With all of the trib action these days I love the occasional big lake report. Keep em comin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camillj Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 (edited) Actually I was only joking .. it could be an Atlantic .. but in that colour phase you really need to be counting pyloric cecae to know for sure ... and by then a live release is kinda out of the question Edited March 20, 2011 by camillj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Bobby Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 brown - square tail and wrong markings and head for atlantic. Nice brownie - were you off St Cath Jordan or Niagara R? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Look at the square tail on that bad boy, that's 100% brownie.. Way to many spots to be an Atlantic anyhow. Good job Mike! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave524 Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 I like to look at the position of the jaw in relation to the eye, the difference is much the same as large and smallmouth bass. With Browns having a eye-jaw relationship much like a largemouth and Atlantics are the smallmouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
