Thunderman Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Kinda like when he measures fish he starts at the 5 inch mark . Frank, you shouldn't have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Cloud Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 Tank and I hit some creeks this morning and did ok. Started at our finger lakes trib spot looking for some lake run rainbows. Nothing to exciting for me - a few small ones and I lost one around a foot. Tank tangled with 3 fish in the 20 inch range and they all won. One just came off, one took off down stream then headed up and got his line around a rock, and another took him around a submerged log. He did end up landing a fresh 15 inch bow...From there we made a stop at a favorite creek of ours and caught about 8-9 browns. Nothing big but 5 of em will make a nice meal...Sorry lads, no camera today... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderman Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 DC,do you have to buy a stamp for trout now and how much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Cloud Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 Thunder - No not yet. "Yet" being the key word. I dont mind the concept as long as the money goes back into the fishery. But it wont, it will end up in the general fund. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY-Kyle Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Couldnt agree more DC...you know the money from the sportsman will go into general state red line pot. Next year we will see a incerease in licence sales across the board and i wouldnt be suprised to see specialized stamps for trout, stealhead, salmon....i just hope they are all under the same stamp.

USMC130FE Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Hey DC, How much would a fly fishing lesson cost an old Jarhead like myself cost? I really would like to learn and I tired of waiting for one of my Marines to teach the class. I got the equipment, well most it think, (rod, reel, and desire!)Let me know if your interested. Thanks!Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Cloud Posted April 4, 2009 Author Share Posted April 4, 2009 Cost??? Alot!!! - oh, I dont know... a few beverages and a good steak sound about right. If you can make it up to Hanc ock on the Delly, I got lodging taken care of. Not the best place to pound numbers of fish, each one is earned. But nice wide open casting. Plus our camp is a pretty nice place to spend some time. Hatches are fairly consistant during may and early june. Lets make this happen...

Thunderman Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 I just took a ride down by the lake to see how much water is dumping into it.WOW all the rain and what is left for snow up north there is whole trees and allot of rift raff coming down.I wouldn't be supprised if they have some flooding some where the lake is filling up fast this could interfear with the spawn that would stink .

Dark Cloud Posted April 4, 2009 Author Share Posted April 4, 2009 Todd - It could also be a good thing. Maybe delay the spawn a bit and have more fish shallow come opener... Steve - Maybe we can get a few others involved? I know AW is interested in some flyfishing. He has a theory that his better half will find him sexy again if he does something "cool" like that...

augustwest Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 I was looking at one of the local papers yesterday and on the front cover was the one and only: ThunderDung cruising up the Barge Canal on his way out to the Lake. Our boy is a Celebrity Hey Thunder...I have a rod you can cast I refuse to pick up a fly rod...that ranks right up there with Watching Paint Dry and Watching NASCAR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNY Tim Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 Had a quick visit with Dad and Billy off to the hatchery we went. That was the first time I got to see the walleye egg stripping/milting process and I'm pretty impressed the way they work together, tough job. The staff on hand was excellent in Constantia. Amanda asked questions and they answered them, wish the weather was bit better to cruise the creek but maybe another day... Got to see BHammer and when I left Tank and Hammer were still chatting. On a cool note... Rosa got a call today and Amanda's bowling team qualified for States in Syracuse. Got a pa nice pacque for doing well too. Stopped off to see North Shore and Tuzzy on the way back home. Why would anyone want to fish for bass? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNY Lee Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 I'm getting there.... Just when I feel like I'm 100% and try to start doing stuff I get really tired and have to rest (sleep). I really haven't been eating much so that's got my energy really low. I'm at about 60% and hope to start eating more solid food sometime this week. I went from 189lbs to 178lbs. I'm just taking the food real slow and work my way up to more solid stuff, I don't want to over do it and have to go back in the hospital.
