I usually stay in the streams. Got a couple friends that boat on Erie, usually for Walleye and Steelhead. There are alot more Salmon in Ontario than Erie. The biggest Salmon I got weight in at 30 lbs. My poor fly rod was about useless.

Nice! excellent thread, I will try to get some Bass today from my new spot.

Harford Glen, trail #5 just passed atkinson dam (on the US military side shhh don't tell) been averaging some nice Bass 2 - 4.5 Lbs so far. There are also some enourmous carp (trash fish) but I try to keep away from those.

If I have any luck this evening I will post up!

Going out on the Jon boat is defn. a nice change of pace (brews included ).
Do you use any wading shoes?

I pried open my squeaky wallet this year and got a set of Simms wading shoes with the "sticky rubber" soles (about $170) and they are worth every penny. Even when it's cold and icy, it's like walking on dry ground.

Yeah we use felt bottom wading shoes. They get great traction but sometimes it's hard to avoid a tumble when your walking through areas with a lot of under water shrubs that hide what's really at the bottom.

We also don't stay in the same place very long, we do a lot of walking up and down the river.

Falling in is part of fishing...sometimes.

Lets make it happen. Here is a link to the guys I used a couple of years ago. They were very nice and comfortable to be around. I think the captain and fist mate make the fishing trip worth doing.

6 guys on the trip at $292 each for a "Offshore" adventure.

That's a pretty decent rate for offshore (Marlin, Tuna, Mahi, Wahoo) on a 48 Foot Ocean Yacht.

I'm interested, just depends on the date.
