Letgofishing we need to get together some time and get out on the lake.  My son and I went to Shields and Mazaska yesterday.  Out of 6 spots we tried we ended up with two baby sunfish!  Would be nice to be able to eat some fresh fish for once!  You ever go out on an evening fish?  Keep up the good work and let us know when they are not biting for the "pro" then we will no to not go there anymore.  Take care and N Joy the Hunt././Jimbo

No sonar just alot of holes. My kids were looking all over the Lake for a silve Suburban. It was so funny they wanted to find you cause you allways catch em. Me not so much. Not to bad yestuday though. Keep up with the reports!  :toast:

Went to Mazaska yesterday and had a blast...nonstop doubles from 1-3 pm (go figure on the time) and then off and on after that....nothing of great size, but after a winter of not catching fish over by Rochester, was fun to see that there are actually live fish somewhere

I hear ya, I've been out around Roch. a couple of times and have been very close to skunked on both trips.

This warm weather is firing things up a couple of places though.

letgofishing... NICE BASS!  I can not get out this weekend  :sorry: as I am in the cities all weekend for the motorcycle show.  Next week is busy getting trailer ready (read configured) for trip on Friday.  We leave for our trip to Texas and will be gone for 9 days.  However, I'll post up here again when I can go.  Would like to meet and fish with ya.  I'll even bring the beer, not too many though as neither of us will be walking home!  Take care and N Joy the Hunt././Jimbo

Letgofishing, it was great to meet you today.  You are one heck of a guy and a fisherman as is proof with the photos you had.  If you ever see my truck at the was feel free to swing in and shoot the bull we usually have a couple beers laying around too if you are into that type of thing!

Letgo, if you plan on going Monday morning let me know, I think I might have to work the wash, but will swing down early and hit the morning bite before work.  If I do not work I might just fish all day.  Maybe MNMoose will want to tag along??  PM me the details if you are not looking to broadcast where your fishing excelence will be!!
