ONEIDA LAKE DIEHARDS THREAD...

 Black and silver worked good for me.

I think it has little to do with color and a lot to do with the action.

[Rugburn]

 That's my thinking Reeleyz, and of course location, and lure size, cadence, time of day, barometric pressure, etc etc.

 Yo pimplepounder,

 Sounds like work is getting in the way of your playtime. Better retire now while you got a chance. Your worries will not be over even then. The hectic schedule continues with Sweete-Rita's honey do list, putting in the garden, cutting the grass and mitigating them dang tent caterpillars, one still finds little precious time to hang a line over the edge of the boat . It's down right tiring, so much so, you might see an old codger out on the east end today , basking in the sun, taking a snooze with a firm grasp on his pole just to wake him up occasionally.

We all have those days PP. I got my butt handed to me tonight, 1 perch and a bunch of short eyes. First walleye skunk this season. It was still a nice night on the water with my son.

Yo Bruce,

 I had a great day on the water. Put a lot of nautical miles on the Larson however looking for the perch. East end was not the place to be yesterday so I went in search of. Saw a lot of guys and gals by the last buoy, but decided it was too crowded.  I played in and out of the southern shore the rest of the morning till 1:30 and then found a spot on the north shore not far from Godfrey's where I had launched. Thankfully, I salvaged my day picking up 2 dozen nice perch within a couple of hours. The wind picked up pretty good by 5:00 but my new anchor held pretty good. It was fun to be back out on the lake again. Oh yeh. Pimplepounder I just might have grabbed a quick snooze while drifting for eyes.

Bruce, i'm glad you had a good day with the son. I imagine he is growing leaps and bounds eh?  I probably won't recognize him next time I see him. They do grow fast don't they? Enjoy him to the max bud. They grow up direct reflections of what we have taught them. I know he will be a fine young man. He has a good tutor.

[reeleyz]

I am glad you got on some fish jbog.

Little B is growing up fast. We have a lot of fun together. I think his little brother is going to give him a run for his money though.
