Bass Onslaught Continues!

Carol, husband Jason and son Brennen came from Arkansas to test their angling skills on Erie. Jason started off hot and maintained a steady catch rate all day! In all my years on the water I’ve never seen hooksets like his! Not only did he lose very few fish, the ones he did land were most likely suffering from mild concussions! Carol just stayed steady all day catching many quality fish. In the process she hooked and eventually lost not only the biggest fish of the day but one of the biggest hooked on this boat in quite some time! Brennen had a good day as well, boating several quality fish. Perhaps the story of his day is how he lost several quaity fish early then kept up his patience, improving his technique - eventually landing the majority of his fish including two smalles on our final drift! All in all a great day with a wonderful family! Three more friends gained!

Ryan booked a trip hoping to get into a few smallmouth bass. Coming along for the trip were his Dad and nephew Asher. On a tough bite (post spawn) and limited time (half day trip) the boys did great! Ryan was steady all morning, Asher went on streaks and Grandpa seemed to only catch the bigger fish. Asher caught a 3 lb + smallie and a 10 lb + freshwater drum that seemed nearly as long as he was! Ryan seemed to only catch smallmouth with several beautiful fish weighing in at weights up to 3.5 lbs. But Grandpa John was not to be outdone and his patience was rewarded withe the biggest smallmouth of the day, so close to 5 lbs thst were calling it a 5! Just another fantastic day on the water with a wonderful family.

Cory visited from Oklahoma with his wife to see the Falls and see what smallmouth bass on Lake Erie were all about. Leaving his wife to sleep in we ventured out in some windy conditions. It was immediately apparent that Cory was an experienced angler and that proved essential on a stingy bite. We gave it everything we had and he did fantastic. He boated many smallmouth in a variety of sizes, tossed in a couple largemouth and basically wore his arms out hooking many giant drum. The only thing missing was his wife! Well make her come out next time they’re near Buffalo! Made another friend in the process.
