Spring Ramblings and Reports

[iceman1603]

Todd and I had a fairly uneventful morning on Oneida. Few walleys for the pan, 1 perch, 1 smalley, 1 siver, 1 big ole sunny and 1 Huge sheep head. did a lot of movin but fish didnt seem to active. Tried bunch of stuff including bottom bouncer and spinner rig but it was not really possible today since there was NO WIND .

I really like fishing the crawler harnesses and things of that nature while drifting. I would like to see the set up your talking about Lee...

[Thunderman]

I can say that was one of the biggest drum I have seen on oneida it was pushing over 10 lbs easy .The 4 walleyes were good eaters 15 to 17 inches .

I have a friend on the south shore who fishes like Lee says and it is surely effective. (sorry Lee, I got your secret, lol) Some days its sticks, others is jigs, and others its spinners. Last time I did it the wind died at the end of the day and you could see the eyes blast out of the weeds after your bait...

Yuppie. I have seen maybe a total of 6 of those fish caught. That was by for the biggest of all of them .. That was the biggest fish I have landed since I caught the 10lb catfish down at lock 21 fishin from the wall at night..

That's a minnow Sheep/Drum

My old buddy Fishnfilet...would target those suckers in the Seneca River and we would POUND those nasty hard fighting fish. Biggest I ever saw on a scale was 21.5lbs. He would go to the creek in Auburn and catch his own Crayfish for them. This guy would eat them to boot

He would also take the Stones out of the back side of their mouths and make jewelry from them...needless to say, he loved catching them

We used to get into some nice sheepheads at times. I remember one day probably around 1990ish we went out of the south shore launch as a south west wind had our north shore spot too rough. We found fish outside the island, shallow, and had a field day with eyes, smallies, and big sheephead...

I haven't fished in almost 2 weeks so today with about 30 minutes of daylight left I grabbed to flyrod and hit the neighbors pond. Caught 4 gills and one bass with a caddis pattern on top. 3 of the gills were "deluxe" models...

This one goes about 10 1/2 as the two boards measured 11 inches

Not sure on the length but well past my wrist...

Nice DC I will be catching a few of those first thing this morning .That has to be allot of fun on a flyrod

[Thunderman]

Thunder - I was thinking the same thing, "in the water". Were you still up at 2:45 am, or woke up for the day?

Tank and I went down by camp yesterday evening. He targeted eyes and caught 7-8, one a nice 21 incher. I stuck to the rifts with the flyrod and picked up two small trout plus missed a few...

Fished out of Fremack marina this mornin with a buddy. Fished from shore out to 119 and back again and NO waldos. Marked fish in a few spots but no biters. Couple small mouths and 1 big sunny was all that would cooperate.
