ONEIDA LAKE DIEHARDS THREAD...

[Chowdaire]

I don't mind the tough fishing myself but somebody better tell the waldos it's Father's Day on Sunday. This is only the second day I'll get Dad out this year and I gotta put him on a few fish.

Whoever has that Easy Button. Break it out.

I have an easy button on my desk here at work. You can borrow it if you want!

Good luck, I hope you find some biters.

Yo Perch Hound,

 No, the time is not wasted. Still got that beauty you gifted me bud.  I'm still afraid a big old walleye is going to sink his teeth in it. Not too much to worry about this last week out. I took Jperch out with me last week and all we caught was shorts and perch on our worm harnesses. Yesterday chrony and I got out all day long and again only caught shorts.  I did manage one 20 inch keeper last Friday and again a few shorts. I was getting a complex, but seems I am not the only one eh?

Hey Boggs, how are ya?
Beat that stick up, put some marks in it, give it some character! 
Fishing for me has been sloooow, getting time to replace the roof on the house, ugh...
so the boat time is going to be quite limited. 
Tight lines bud.

Chowdaire......best of luck Sunday fishing with your Dad!!!  Hope you are able to find some fish for him, if not, I'm sure he'll still have a great Father's Day just being able to spend time with you out on the water 

[wallyworld]

I don't ever wish anyone to have a bad day fishing..........but, I sure as heck feel better about my lack of catching after reading that lots of other people are struggling this season too

Yo Chowdair.
Good for you bud. I wish you good luck . My Fathers day present is, I am getting my daughter and my great granddaughter out  in the boat for the first time. I'm torn between taking them out for waldo's or going for the sure thing , drifting harnesses through Big Bay and catchin gills and pickerel. Thinking I will opt for Big Bay and watching my Great Grand daughter squeal with delight.  I bought her her first Pink Snow White fishing pole.  At 4 years old, not sure if she can handle the 5 foot Ugly stick yet, but we will see. She is precocious. Reports to follow on Monday.

Had a decent evening on the east end. Jigged sonars in 22 to 16 FOW, had the gf out with me, and she kicked my butt. She got 2 nice eaters and 3 just shorts. I went 1 for 2, but it was a nice 20"er. Beautiful night for a few quick drifts, fished 7:30 to 9:30pm

[Chowdaire]

Thanks for the well wishes, guys. I'm going to pick up a couple of cigars after work so worst case Dad will enjoy being outside having a smoke and a cold beer.

I should really scout the lake on Saturday to find fish but I'm going to run to the big lake instead. I haven't had many chances to get out this year and am dying to give those big silver fish a try.

Good luck everybody

[filetandrelease]

Good luck chowdaire
Well Bruce at least you got caught some fish my first outting trolling with the wife was slow managed 3 borderline fish so we tossed them
Went back out in the afternoon with snag for some sonaring we jigged  deep water and got lucky and found a pod of biters ,we  kept a limit and snag got a big sheep and we caught 2 smaller ones , wind shifted and couldn't stay on them oh well,  I'm happy to land a few , and today my elbow is paying for it lol but it's a good hurt

[Chowdaire]

Nice job rlowery & filet. Everything I'm hearing is the evening bite is much better than the mornings. Maybe that's the key.
