Open Water 2006 Reports Part II


Recommended Posts

melikefishin - If your having a tough time locating a refurb let me know I might have something or I should say Frank may have something for you wink.gif email me at

[email protected] and [email protected] and will discuss it...

Tank - Way to go! Jay that pic isn't too bad from a phone, not bad at all.

Fishingking - that eye on the bottom sure is pretty.

Thanksgiving afternoon I went in the woods with my brother-in-law hunting. Saw 11 deer and had a couple of easy doe shot's within 75 yards with the .270, no bucks frown.gif It was nice just sitting in the woods and watching deer it's been 26 years since I did that. He's going to see if he can get some nuisance permits for that area next season and then I think I'm going to get my sporting license. Next year could be the year. I don't have to buy a gun either Mike's got a ton of em so it won't cost much at all. Coming back from Westmore land this a.m. and saw a nice fat doe on the back of a polaris smile.gif

I took the hunter safety course back in Massachusetts when I was 14 and I had my gun permit from there as well. I don't know what I'll need to get set up for NY, drivers license?

Went fishing on Conesus Lake this evening with Hali-man and MXFisher looking for some walleyes off of Long Point.

We fished from 4:30pm to about 7:30pm with a few warm up breaks in between. I got the waders out, and found out I had a small hole in my left leg. So, my left foot got a little cold shocked.gif

As far as the fishing went, it was slow--no one got a fish. The lake looked like glass---no wind at all. The only thing that made a wake were the geese taking off towards warmer environments. All three of us prayed not to get 'dumped' on when the geese were right above us. grin.gif

Big Johnny Ice - Hey bud the night fishing the last couple of days hasn't been great here, dead calm + no bait= no fish.. Went for a run and hit the bar, bridge and Schnibs and nothing. Nobody was out last night except for Maria and I, late.. Franky how was the bar early? Did you go?

Fishing King - Hopefully we have some west wind going as I now have enough plastics and lead to last a few years now for Oneida, me thinks. All the BfishN stuff arived yesterday and they were out of unpainted and and he sent me painted in it's place "SWEET". Upon futher inspection along with the Firecracker I would definitely get the Black and Silver, I know that's gonna work too it's got heavy flake in it wink.gif

Have not gone Tim . . .hunting late. Probably not there tonight either . . .that happens when you go all day hunting on Friday . . . Going hunting in the morning too . . . grin.gif Heard they were hitting last night just before dark and a little after that but then they shut down. Suspect another bite is at 9 . . .but you know the rest of the story . . .

Well Frank the bite was early according to Larry and Mike and as usual the boys grinded it out from early on and the last hour was when things picked up for them at the bar approximately 7 p.m. Joe was there too early. and didn't catch any and Dave (Ontario) the guy that was fishing there while I was talking to you on the cell picked up one off Big Johnny's Perch and then he left around 11 ish. Well Larry and Mike said that they left fish as they were leaving and I thought man I will make quick work of this and get home early... So I thought... and then on my 2nd cast with a blue challenger jr. a nice 18.5" hit so I thought alright here we go... Well the next fish I had on was and hour later at 9 p.m. and lost him trying to land it and then around 10 p.m. I caught another 18.5" and then at 11:45 this 22" piggy took to the gold. So like the boys said earlier., The bar was a grind tonight. I stopped by the bridge just to throw a few shots and there was no one home and no one fishing for that matter, also Schnibs was empty.

Fishingking - See you tomorrow evening...

Here's Mike with his limit... Couldn't get Larry to pose with his, I think he's camera shy wink.gif Larry it was nice shooting the breeze with you for a while after Mike left. smile.gif

If I hunt it will be a quick push up North, but I doubt it . . .if I got lucky would have to prep it quickly with the higher temps . . .then it gets tough. Will be at the "spot" some time tonight. Will call. Larry the gentleman as always . . .Tim told me about you sticking around after you had your limit to shoot the breeze.

Hey Jay,

Looks like you guys are doing good on taking out some of the 'wood rats'. Great job getting all of the deer this year....No venison for me. It was tough for me to get out with the kids being sick and work getting in the way, but I can still fish once and awhile. grin.gif

Speaking of football...I am a Steeler fan too. I guess we both can say that at least our team didn't lose 30-0. LOL!!! Let's just hope that the Browns don't end up with a better record. blush.gifblush.gifblush.gifblush.gifblush.gifblush.gif Oh yeah, do we have 5 rings? I thought so....

Jay - Nice deer!

BJI - Now now Johnny that was uncalled for, to rub the Browns misfortune in is really below the belt, but then again the team we put out on the field is probably better of playing a non-contact sport grin.gif This afternoon things were getting rough and as the quarters were clicking away along with the Clowns chances. I jumped up and calmed the crowd of disgruntled fans and yelled, "Paper or Plastic" reminisant of the New Orleans Aints of old. The laughter was something we all needed after watching all the rabid dogs in the pound imploding. Yep we were calling for Romeo's head and wanted to smack Edwards for calling Charlie Frye out on the sidelines on T.V., if Braylon don't watch it he will be another TO... blush.gif

Thank God my Cardinals won the World Series and by the way Big Johnny my Cardinals have won 10 World Championships, 2nd all time to the Ny Yankees and how many have your Pittsburgh Pirates won? grin.gifblush.gif

Now tonight's fishing report: The weather was beautiful, conversation plentiful and the walleyes were not at home. Lake was pancake flat and Frank was the only one not get skunked as he caught a nice bullhead oh and I forgot Fishingking netted a couple a dozen shad..

Probably will fish late Tuesday and then I got to put the seats back in the van for the trip to PA for Amanda's dance competition...

Timbo . . .I think we should have gone some place that had deep water close by . . .like the Schnibs. Jay nice deer . . .oh I put them down with one shot, but have to see them first. Been that kind of year up here and me not having a doe tag is limiting. I'll get one of them honeys come Southern muzzle. Another nice deer . . .congrats.

David was down there and had been there for awhile and nadda for him too. Said Mike was there earlier and had said he lost one and had one other bump. Joe, Larry and Jan . . . nothing, not even a bump. No one else doing ANYTHING!!!! Got to have some change to the weather . . . like wind. I know be careful for what you wish for . . .the weekend is a doozy and all next week . . .maybe until next April! Time for ice! BJ . . .I don't know about snacking on the shad, but salmon jerky is mighty tasty with the suds!!!

Fishingking - Tim I have contractors on jobs here all the time and they are a pretty good lot. The only problem I ever had was the roofing guys a few years back. Those guys liked to get self-lubricated at lunch and one of em took a P--s off the corner of the building and was reported by an occupant, LOL..

The weather was to nice last night and Johnnny know's what happens after I get some smile.gifgrin.gifblush.gif

The walleye fishing was terrible last night. Tried to do some scouting for Donny tonight and I drove and fished till 3 a.m. and not one dang hit... The bridge and schnibs were chock full of bait, no wind., maybe tonight...
