It's because of everyone in here that I'm able to attempt to go after some eyes this year This is all new to me, so I'm picking up all I can to get em in Lorain. I've started fishing a couple weeks ago with my 17 foot fiberglass boat. It has a 115hp with a 5hp kicker. I'm doing the sandbar thing and taking some perch every once and a while in other places! Thanks for all the info and it's great to be here!!!
