 got out on the big creek with the kid and a few freinds for some steelhead action.
      water conditions wernt the best  (18"vis) and high. but it was good to get out there and walk the stream( 6 miles of it ) and catch  a few fish too.

tried to get out for some early  spring perch fishing on erie but after only a short time out on the lake the winds picked up and waves started crashing over the bow so we quit and headed back to shore seeing how the lake temp was 40 degrees and no other boats were out in our area( 1.5 miles frrom shore ) to rescue us in case we needed rescueing. we did get into a few bass and my brother pulled up a slob 15+ inch perch

Nice fish. I'm jealous of your Steel pics. What an awsome place to fish. You guys do have some beautiful country in NY I'll give you that.

got out for some crappie (calico) fishing  today with my son and brother and had one of best days ever landing over 200 fish between the 3 of us.
 we decided to check out one of the bays not far from the launch  and lucked into a big school while drifting the shallow flats-had the whole place to ourselves until a boat passing by seen us pulling in some nice slabs,within an hour there were close to 15 boats  fishing around us but everyone kept their distance so it wasn't too bad..
 we ended up catching over 200 and keeping 75 crappie mostly 10-13.75 inchers with a few 9.5 's thrown in.
      got enough fillets to last a while hopefully we can get in another steelhead trip if the creek clears up a bit .

                    my brother with a nice white crappie         

                    myself with a couple decent size slabs

                 the kid with a averge size crappie

                    back at the launch
                    5 gallon bucket and cooler full of slabs


                     was able to talk my brother into taking 10 of ours-that still leaves me with 40 to fillet----have to teach the kid how to clean fish one of these days

    think im going to do some catch and release fishing next time i get out

[crowkiller]

very nice catch for the day WTG

[Bartman44]

Very nice pile of slabs. I hope to do some of that myself soon.

took advantage of my 4 day weekend and got out with the boy for a few hours of catch&release  steelhead fishing on the big creek. the numbers of returning fish are a bit down this year but we still managed to hookup with a few good size fish and about 16 jacks in the 16-18 inch range,not bad for a few hours but nothing compared to 30-40 fish days of the last few years.
  -----------------------------------------------------------

           another jack-  caught 5 or 6 before the kid hooked up with his first fish of the afternoon

                       another colorful rainbow

   the kid finaly hooked into something- the fish went nuts jumping repeatedly and held out for  10 min before the kid beached it.

 
               i finally hooked up with a fair sized specimen after catching 8 little guys
