    Won't be long now!

    The guys who put their boats in last week are probably second guessing their decision; their boats are frozen at the dock! I just talked to a buddy who said the whole marina is iced up.

    Won't be long now!

    Yeah, I will keep guys posted. My boat should be in the water by April 1st. I hope to get in a couple days of fun fishing before my first charter of the year.

    Won't be long now!

    A charter left wild wings on Saturday and came back in with a skunk! I honestly cannot believe anybody would pay to fish on a day like Saturday. My buddies told me it was nasty on shore so I could only imagine what it was like on the water. I love fishing but there comes a point where I draw...

    Wheeling Cabelas Great Outdoor Days

    I will have a booth set up this weekend (16,17) for Cabela's Great Outdoor Days. This is their largest event of the season with vendors and seminars throughout the weekend. Last year my display (Eye Spy Charters) was by the aquarium and I assume that is where I will be again. If you are in the...

    Won't be long now!

    The worst thing about the jig bite is all the boats because you always will have a few jacka$$es that go over the fish at full speed. With all the boats in a small area, it doesn't take long for the fish to scatter.

    Jesse, you need to make a spring trip with Adam. I just talked to him about it on Saturday.

    Won't be long now!

    I started working on the boat over the weekend and hope to have her in the water by April 1st. The lake was full of ice on Saturday but I just talked to a guy who said all the ice blew out with the strong south winds from yesterday (a north wind will bring it back). The early season jig bite...

    Any outdoor events coming up?

    Ricer, I should have been more specific. I am looking at events in the southern half of the state. I also want to stay away from the big shows. Just looking for small events. Thanks for the reply, I might have to check out that show as a bow hunter.

    Any outdoor events coming up?

    I am looking to set up a booth at small outdoor events/stores to promote my Lake Erie charter service. In the past i have set up at pheasants forever, NWTF, ducks unlimited, etc. banquets. I have also set up at wild game feeds, reverse raffles and outdoor stores. I will be passing out brochures...

    Second chance for ice fishing?

    I walked out of Catawba with a group of 4 other guys. We fished from 9:00-4:30 and only landed 7 eyes between us. All of our fish were between 16-18". We were approximately 2 miles nw of the state park in 22 fow. We had 6-7 inches of good clear ice in most areas but a few spots only had about...

    Who's seeing shed bucks?

    Checked my cameras over the weekend and all 4 bucks still had both sides. Did not notice any shed bucks in the 200+ pics

    Ice Fishing...by the end of the first week of January?

    As of right now, there is no snow on the ground here. Hoping the snow Wednesday ends up being less than what they are calling for.

    Ice Fishing...by the end of the first week of January?

    The best recipe for ice is cold, clear nights with little to no wind. That will produce good clear ice. The snow will serve as an insulator and slow the ice building process.

    Ice Fishing...by the end of the first week of January?

    If we don't get a lot of snow there should be some fishable ice by Saturday. Snow really slows the ice making process, so if we get what they are calling for, it might be a little longer. I fish the Sandusky Bay and with the wind/rain from last week, I am afraid that water will be a mess. I...

    Deer densities observations

    I cannot speak for the deer numbers in the southern part of the state, but I hunt in Huron County and the numbers are definately down. I hunt 3 large farms and used to be able to see 15-20 deer a night out feeding during bow season; now I am lucky to see 5-6. I think there are a couple of...

    Buck Down

    Thanks everyone! I am dropping him off at the taxidermist tomorrow. Now I guess I will have time to do some trapping.
