To slip or not to slip, that is the question.
Most who ask why I don’t use a boat slip are past or present slip holders with pleasure boats that cruise area waters. Being a full time fishing guide on Lake Erie, my needs and areas of operation change as the seasons do.
So in summary, here are my top 10 reasons that I choose to trail my boat daily:
#10 Daily maintenance and tackle changes. I mi… Read More
Frozen Lake Erie
Its March 5th and Lake Erie is still about 96% frozen. I am hoping and praying that warm spring weather hits Western NY very soon. I am told by ice fishermen that the ice is not nearly as thick as it was last year at this time, 40 plus inches in some areas. I am cautiously optimistic that we will be on the water catching big smallmouth bass but the 2nd week of May. A lot of pra… Read More

Great way to keep worm harnesses in order
I found a great way to keep worm harnesses, neat and in order from a youtube video that showed up on my facebook page one day ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4jxKapm7-A ) Tangle tamers as they are called can turn a mass of tangle lines into the neatest, most organized system you have ever seen.

Giant Lake Erie musky caught in the Buffalo Harbor
A great shot of my customer, Stan Skotnicki (and Derek Bell not in pix) with a huge Lake Erie, Niagara River musky. The big girl was over 40 lbs and 52″. She hit a green “watermelon” Perch bait, trolled over 22 feet at 2.8 mph. This monster bit just as we we ready to leave to watch the Bills beat the Jersey Jets. We lost another a short time before as it bent a hook right at th… Read More
Fall smallmouth fishing on Lake Erie
The water temps on Lake Erie near Buffalo New York are starting to drop and that means its almost time to try and catch a monster smallmouth. When the temps drop it triggers a feeding frenzy for the bass to build up fat for the long winter ahead and that makes it a great time to go searching for the trophy of a life time. The magic temperature is 55 degrees and that will soon… Read More
Best walleye season on Lake Erie
I have been guiding on Lake Erie near Buffalo, New York since 1978 and I admit that most of those years has been taking people out for small mouth bass. I began to fish for walleye with my dad back in the late 50’s and early 60’s, using chugging irons and spinners, but my love for smallies took over and I made a long and great career out of catching them. When I was producing m… Read More
