Twelve year old children do not need to be in the deer hunting woods with high powered rifles and shotgun slugs flying round. A better place is in the classrooms.

The web site is TCS Outdoors. It features Lake Erie winter walleye fishing with side planers and stick baits. There are enough shows to last all winter for you to watch parked in your lounge chair. You will learn a lot here. -

Thanksgiving Day had three foot of Lake Erie slush ice near shore many times years ago. Today the water temperature is now the high forties. Early fishing will happen this year so let it not happen when our lake never froze but Ohio fishermen had boat fishing all winter. Search You tube fishing site for TCS videos of winter fishing. -

With the warm Lake Erie water temperature the lake may not freeze over again. We have to move somewhere now. -

After last years fiasco at the Sturgeon Point boat ramps the State needs to take over operation there. Yet nothing seems to be happening now. Will the woman Supervisor keep the men home painting and grass cutting again? -
Perch are bottom feeders, they do not chase minnows much. They also feed on gobies and mayfly larva'. Shore fishing for perch begins now with 50 degree waters. You do not need to go out to 60 foot depths but 55 foot depths are where the shale bottom meets the mud bottom and the larva come out of the mud.

Kayak operators and canoe operators like stream access also. -
We need a group for trailer boat operators in New York State. With all the boats, jet skis, sailboats using boat ramps an action group is needed on our lakes and rivers to make our governor and legislators aware of the economic influence and needs for improved waters access points. The marina docks seem to get their needs taken care of but boating trailer operators are forgotten. Please speak up!

One perch rod in your hand out fishes three watched rods. This is due that the watched rods lose too much bait and you waste too much time reeling, rebaiting and resetting the other rods. Keep your pole in your hand and quickly set the hook as the fish has it in his mouth. Your catch numbers pile up faster.

With the lake surface water temperature drop to below 65 degrees, the walleyes will be nearer the surface. With plankton and bait now near the surface waters also due higher dissolved oxygen content of surface water due to wave actions, you will not see them on your sonar as your boat spooks them away. Side planers with lures on top along with jets to keep your lures higher on turns work now. Just because they do not show on your sonar screen, be aware the sonar signal is straight down below, not off to the side and on top of the water column.

The best secret to catch perch is to have an emerald shiner minnow laying on the mud bottom. Perch will feed off a dead minnow before chasing a suspended minnow above the lake bottom. Always have a snelled hook tied to the sinker and let the sinker rest on the bottom. Occasionally lift the line and be aware although no bite has been felt, the extra weight indicates a perch can be hanging on.

Starting from Point Breeze yesterday with my son and nephew aboard, we stopped several times after spotting small hooks on the bottom with our sonar resulting ln occasional perch, with a call from a neighbor, we went off Silver Creek 70 foot of water. Several boats out there were pulling a few perch out and we let out our anchor with 200 foot of scope. Suddenly about 11:30 AM, the bite turned on. With a bluebird sky and high sunlight the perch schools were moving to deeper water tp avoid the sun. Continuous catched of larger 12 to almost 15 inch perch were taken to about 3:30 PM, Things slowed down then and we pulled the anchor about 4:00 PM, The caych was 93 jumbo perch with 70 perch between 12 and 15 inches. Small emerald shiner minnows obtained frpm Ferry Street Bait store woked best, The noon hour tips were important,
