Jim, Let me just wish for good health for you for your birthday.

(Same goes all LCU members in 2022 and beyond.)

@Wallyandre...I just saw a string of photons with catches of browns and rainbows from Lake Memphremagog. You were in the first photo with two nice browns. Was the photo recent? My son lives near the southern end of the lake, but he had almost no luck fishing the south end in September and October. P...

I want to echo what TruViking said... Matt, a few years back we shared some messages about getting together to fish for walleye on Otter Creek. You told me to get some moon-eye jigs and I did so. But our meetup never happened. Later I bought a boat and thought again we'd fish together on Lake Champl...

One picture shows a fish that look like a sturgeon...what is it?

Had an interesting charter out of Falmouth on 9/16. Left the dock on the Islander at 6AM. Capt. "CJ" said we'd make an hour-long run out to a spot where we could target stripers and bluefish. There was a continuous line of bad weather to our west, right along the shoreline all the way to N...

I have not - have just occasionally picked one up fishing for salmon. I am hardly an expert, though.

Good luck with your treatment. You are headed to an excellent medical center. My son and I, both your customers for many years, will be thinking about you and pulling for a complete recovery.

Otter Creek was very high when I crossed the bridge in Vergennes yesterday around noon. So wind will determine the direction of flow for all that chocolate milk colored water. Forecast is for north wind tonight and tomorrow changing to south wind on Friday night and into Saturday. So, not easy to gu...

My boat is an 18' Lund. White hull with black Lund logo. Second boat on left as you walk down the "gangplank" at Point Bay Marina.

Left Point Bay Marina around 9AM. Plan was to head south towards Potash Point and then troll back north. But water was very discolored at mouth of Otter Creek, so we motored north of Diamond Island and trolled north along New York side. We saw a few random marks and a number of bait balls, but no si...

Some of us use a Fish Hawk TD probe to read temperatures down through the water column to determine where the thermocline is. When I do this, I usually set one of my riggers a little below the temperature break and the other rigger above it. I have had no luck fishing in Northwest Bay, so if I were ...

I would probably participate with my boat, son-in-law, and 6 year old grandson.

Congrats on that big salmon. Nice that you released him after the terrific fight he gave Pat. Was that salmon your boat's personal best?

Here's a link to forum member Digitroll's video about using inexpensive and simple to use Big Jon Mini Discs.

Congratulations. Landing two big salmon in a row takes a lot of skill. The big ones are fighters.
