i told you---i wouldnt lie to you man

I will be there next weekend both days doing dipsys and boards.

hi mikey, sorry i think i deleted it by accident. george has been sending me shit messages and filling up my pm box. thanks for the offer. right now im waiting to see what my ins company has to say. im trying to get them to pay for new shingles because i lost almost 30 from that wind storm back on the 11th. but we can still go fishing.

I got the gold back ones for sure! As far as heading east I am going to be out of Ahstabula or Geneva. To tell you the truth I haven't fished eyes in Erie for 20 years. I bought an used 21' Trophy hardtop and have spent about 5 k in tackle and shit so far! LOL... I am retired now and have all the time in the world to fish and enjoy the lake. I have a 25' trailer I am going to put up there also so, me and my friends will have somewhere to go and be stupid!

Back when I was fishing for eyes 20 some odd years ago we used wire line mostly all the time. I am going to have to learn how to do it again. I think the biggest thing is I bought top notch electronics which, we didn't have back then. We only had Loran C's and they weren't all that reliable. We basicially hit deep water and trolled Bombers. It has changed some and I am going to have catch up. I just love the OGF. There are many good people on here and greatly appreciate the time people have given me!

Thanks Mike

you bet they will catch some walleye.....that was probably my #1 spoon in june/july......with spicy chicken wing a close second. If you got a gold back on the hooky spoon, your set.

you headin over east this year with us?

Im glad your son made it back ok. Thank him and your son in law for me. If you ever want to get out over on the western end for the eyes or perch to try something diffrent let me know my boat is open. I am docked and launching out of Turtle creek.

Mike,
I served in the Air Force 10 years til 93. My son is a medic in the navy attached to the marine unit in Toledo.
As for offending me you didn't. When I use the big one I hold it with my left and reel with my wrist on the right hand. and my spincast work like normal its just that the leather holds it not my hand and I can reel like normal.

Where do you usally fish out of? Id like to meet up sometime and do some fishing

Thanks for the offer on the left handed reel. I was always right handed and got use to fishing like that. My spincasters are set up for left hand retrive its just the other ones I have are right hand. I've gotten use to them now.
I really do apprectate the offer though.
