Trout in the Gooseberry River

Image by pmarkham
In a shallow spot at the bottom of Gooseberry Falls, the river was absolutely teeming with trout. I don’t know my fish very well, but I think these are either brook or brown trout. They were all at least 12 inches long. Too bad I didn’t have a fish pole with me.

Babe Winkelman: On The Hunt For Early Summer Walleyes In Ontario Shield Lakes
I think the prettiest fish in the world is a walleye pulled from a shield lake. They seem to have a rich, caramel color unmatched by any other region in North America. Maybe it’s because of the dark water in many of Ontario’s thousands of Canadian shield lakes. Or maybe it’s simply an extension of the colorful personality you find in Ontario’s places, people and attitude.

There is good fishing all over Lake Erie but picking a location to fish out of requires a map and some advance planning.

First and foremost, decide what species you’d like to target. You know, Lake Erie is most noted for its walleye, smallmouth bass and yellow perch fishing. Did you know that sport anglers catch more fish out of this lake every year than all the other Great Lakes combined? It’s true.

Over the last 30 years, Lake Erie has gained the reputation as the “Walleye Capital of the World.” While some other areas have disputed that contention, such as Minnesota and parts of Canada, there is no question that Erie gives up tons of walleyes to sport fishing and to commercial netters in Ontario every year.

Lake Erie is also a world-class smallmouth bass fishery. Bass can be caught all around the lake in 10-30 feet of water, using a multitude of natural and artificial baits. In recent years, bass populations have declined some due to spawning conditions and fishing pressure. But they are on the rebound. It’s not uncommon for one of my charter groups to catch and release 25-50 bass per day.

For those interested in stocking the freezer, there is no better tasting freshwater fish than the yellow perch. And Lake Erie is full of them. They are fun and easy to catch, making them a great target for inexperienced adults and youthful anglers.

In getting started search the Internet for a map of Lake Erie. You will see that the lake is divided into three zones, the western basin, central basin and the eastern basin. All have advantages.

The only island and shallow reef areas in the lake are located in the western basin. It’s the shallowest part of the lake. Because of the abundant reef habitat, most walleye spawning takes place here in the early spring. And that makes for some fantastic fishing during the months of April, May and June.

As the water warms, the walleyes move eastward into the cooler central basin where depths can reach 75 feet. The angling prospects here are also very good for the drift fisherman and troller.

It’s not until mid-June and early July when the walleyes become active in the eastern basin. This section of the lake rarely reaps the reproduction benefits provided by western Lake Erie. However, it does offer some fair walleye fishing, good bass and perch angling and excellent steelhead trout action. Trolling is the main method of taking eyes and steelhead.

The western basin experiences the heaviest fishing pressure because of the large nearby cities of Detroit, Toledo and Cleveland. Drift fishing, trolling and pier fishing are the favorite methods of taking fish here.

Top ports in the west are Port Clinton, Sandusky and Huron plus the Davis-Besse power plant area between Port Clinton and Toledo. Here you will find dozens of bait and tackle shops, marinas, hundreds of charter boats and launch ramps for private boat owners.

The central zone is quite accessible because Interstates 80 and 90 stretch along the lakeshore. Top ports here include Ashtabula, Fairport Harbor, Cleveland, Lorain and Vermilion. All cater to fishermen and boaters. A substantial charter fleet is also present.

So, when it comes to planning a fishing trip to Lake Erie it helps to know the lay of the lake and where to go as each zone offers something different. Here’s a recap:

WESTERN BASIN: Walleye, bass, perch, catfish around shallow reefs and small islands.
CENTRAL BASIN: Walleye, bass, perch, catfish along the shoreline and in open water.
EASTERN BASIN: Steelhead, walleye, bass, perch inshore and open water.

Walleye, by far, is the most sought after species, followed yellow perch, smallmouth bass, trout and catfish, which is gaining in popularity.

Anglers probing the Vermilion and Huron waters this past season pulled a remarkable number of catfish ranging in size from 2-20 pounds. That kind of fishing should continue.

Minnesota Crappie Fishing Strategies For All Ages And Anglers

Edit Article |

Posted: Aug 15, 2008 |Comments: 0
| Views: 540 |

]]>

Crappies are one of the most sought after species of fish in Minnesota. There are a couple of reasons for this. One is because they are always so eager to take the bait and then they put up a nice struggle for their size. This makes fishing for them fun, entertaining and perfect for anglers of all ages and skill levels. The other reason they are so popular is because the sweet-tasting filets of the crappie are simply delicious.

The state record for the black crappie in Minnesota weighed five pounds and the white crappie was a little less than four pounds. These catches were very impressive for this species of fish because crappies normally don’t grow much larger than two or three pounds. A little less than two pounds is the average weight for a crappie.

It is easier to catch a crappie than it is many of the other species of fish. However, you will find that there are a few strategies available that can help you catch even more crappie when fishing in Minnesota.

Strategies for Finding Minnesota Hot Spots

One of the most important things to remember is that any “hot spot” can and will change with time. Therefore, if you have a favorite spot where you have always had lots of luck reeling in the crappie, don’t be surprised if one day it stops being productive. This is simply the natural order of things. When the crappies are no longer biting it’s time to move on to a new spot. There are several sources available that will help you locate new crappie fishing spots in Minnesota.

To learn where the hot spots are located you can pick up a survey of different lakes and take a look at the population level of the crappie in each lake and their size. Crappies live an average of ten to fourteen years. Therefore, when you find a body of water with large crappie in it, this is where you need to be going fishing now. Within a year or so all the larger crappie will have been caught or they will have died out. Bodies of water where the population of crappies is small will be a great place to visit in a couple years when they have time to mature.

As a general rule lakes and rivers that have a restricted limit on the size and number of crappie you can catch per visit will have many hot spots. This is because the limit gives the crappie time to grow and prevents anglers from wiping them out in one season.

Here are some of the lakes located in Minnesota where you will find many great crappie hot spots.

Lake of the Woods

Leech Lake

Lake Traverse

Lake Superior

Lake Minnetonka

Lake Waconia

Upper and Lower Red Lake

Lake Mille Lacs

Kabetogama Lake

Rainy Lake

You can also find crappie in many of the smaller lakes and rivers located all through Minnesota.

Can anyone explain these jokes?

January 25th, 2011 | Author: Jon

Question by : Can anyone explain these jokes?
I’m not very good at understanding English jokes. Could anyone please explain these, thanks a lot.

1
A mobster discovers that his deaf accountant has cheated him out of ten million bucks. He confronts him, bringing along an interpreter. “Ask him where the money is,” the mobster says.
The interpreter does so, and the accountant signs back, “What are you talking about?”
The interpreter tells the godfather, “He doesn’t know what you’re talking about.”
The mobster puts a pistol to the bookkeeper’s head. “Ask him again!”
The interpreter signs, “He’ll kill you if you don’t tell him!”
“Okay, okay!” the bookkeeper signs back. “The money is buried behind the shed in my cousin Enzo’s backyard!”
“What’s he say?” asks the don.
“He says you don’t have the guts to pull that trigger.”

2
I have an 18-year-old; her name is Alexis. I chose that name because is I hadn’t had her, I’d be driving one.

3
Maria went to the telephone booth to make her second insult call. She payed the telephone booth owner. Then she dialed: ABC-DEF-GHI. “Hello! May I take your order, please?” the Figaro delivery service said. “I want to order all the kinds of sushi you have, and please don’t forget the chopsticks.” Maria replied. “Looks like we have another insult call.”

4
A woman’s child said”Yo Mama, I hate you because you made me a boy, not a girl!”. The woman said” Wait, If you were a girl, someone would have to cut into you to get your baby!”.
The child said” Have you lost your mind?! I want the baby to know that she/he was from me!”.

5
So there was this blind man, right?…he was was feeling his way with his stick, right?…one morning he walked past a fish market. He stopped and he sniffed around and said,”Good mornin’ ladies!!!”

6
A person named Tommy had a wife named Heather. Whenever Heather came home, She would bring something disguisting.
When Heather died in a war, Tommy was sad. He said to himself, “I must die in a toilet instead!”

7
Most people think outside the box. You still haven’t figured out how to get in.

8
A man was stopped by a game warden in Northern Minnesota recently with two buckets of fish leaving a lake well known for its fishing. The game warden asked the man, “Do you have a license to catch those fish?”

The man replied to the game warden, “No, sir. These are my pet fish.”

“Pet fish?!” the warden replied.

“Yes, sir. Every night I take these fish down to the lake and let them swim around for a while. I whistle and they jump back into their buckets, and I take em home.”

“That’s a bunch of hooey! Fish can’t do that!”

The man looked at the game warden for a moment, and then said, “Here, I’ll show you. It really works.”

“O.K. I’ve GOT to see this!” the game warden replied.

The man poured the fish in to the water and stood and waited.? After several minutes, the game warden turned to the man and said, “Well?”

“Well, what?” the man asked.

“When are you going to call them back?” the game warden prompted.

“Call who back?” the man asked.

“The FISH.”

“What fish?” the man asked.
Thanks a lot people. Still looking for explainations of 3, 7 (what do you mean not really a joke? but what does that sentence mean anyways).

Best answer:

Answer by Dita
1. The interpreter is stealing the money.
2. He is in too much debt from the kid to by a lexus.
3.
